When addressing retaliation and ADA claims in your brief, you might include something like this:
"In a recent meeting, it was acknowledged that changes were made following my report of misconduct. However, the County Administrator stated that board approval was necessary for implementation. Shortly after, Audrey Son's public comments on social media, boasting about 'playing 4D chess,' suggest retaliation. This follows my report about Ricky Gray's cousin taking leave for school and Angel Hutchins' relative’s garnishment being set aside. These actions exemplify retaliation under the ADA and whistleblower protections."
