So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID.

This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC.

What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.
Elon Musk: "We will make mistakes. We won't be perfect ... so for example, with USAID, one of the things we accidentally canceled very briefly was ebola prevention."

The dénouement of the US Attorney's Office Holocaust Remembrance Day event cancellation saga. (my scheduled talk about lawyers in 1930s Nazi Germany)

"Our understanding now is that it was never the intention of the Department to cancel the event."

This is a perilous moment for lawyers in federal service.
Stories of resistance from within can help.

This book tells of lawyers who helped run the Japanese American camps of WWII.

We can learn from their struggles to reconcile job with conscience.

Would you please share?
