From a State Department-arranged German sex hotel to costly, unsubstantiated investigations brought on by anonymous sources, Y'all Fired shows readers the unfortunate reality of a young woman's fight to institute America First reforms and what the permanent government of DC will do to resist it. Buckle up, because this gets personal. Y'all Fired: A Southern Belle's Guide to Restoring Federalism and Draining the Swamp provides an insider account of an outsider's service in the Trump Administration. It brings to life first-hand experiences of deep state bullying and the frustrating reality of having few tools to effectively push back. Having grown up in small-town Mississippi where people treat people with courtesy and believe in America's constitutional tradition, life within the modern Deep State was a wakeup call for Mandy Gunasekara. Where some political appointees cut and run, and others find ways to simply blend in by "going native," this small-town girl is determined to fix it. Y'all Fired cuts through the politics and provides a substantive assessment of how we got here by explaining the enduring institutional challenges to reform, including passage of the Sixteenth Amendment that forever changed the relationship between the federal government and the states, and the broken promises of FDR's New Deal. This blend of personal anecdotes alongside policy solutions is not about revenge for the unfortunate souls that never learned their manners; it's a reckoning for the American people to finally institute overdue reforms.
