Tucker Carlson reports, citing source familiar, that the stepmother of ex-Atlanta officer Garret Rolfe — Melissa Rolfe — was fired from her HR manager job at Equity Prime Mortgage in Atlanta with little explanation. Told: “We have to terminate our relationship with you.”
After the segment aired and after commercial break, Tucker said just after the segment aired, the company got back to the show with a statement that said the firing had to do with social media posts and stressed commitment to diversity
Here’s the segment where Tucker Carlson revealed the stepmother of the ex-Atlanta officer’s firing:
Here’s a statement from the company about diversity and equality posted about an hr and 40 minutes before Tucker’s show came on that doesn’t mention the fired woman https://twitter.com/equity_prime/status/1273742049615818752?s=21 https://twitter.com/equity_prime/status/1273742049615818752
Would be interested to see 1. which social media posts from the officer’s stepmother that the Equity Prime says were so bad that she needed to be fired, and 2. Any written communication between Equity Prime and Melissa Rolfe about her firing
Equity Prime stmnt. No mention of social media posts. Says she "violated company policy," "lost confidence of peers."
"We value diversity of thought ... when those views create a hostile working environment, we must make difficult decisions to part ways." https://twitter.com/Equity_Prime/status/1273817345979559936?s=20
