Watching him prepare to wreck the DOJ breaks my heart.

Same with HHS. There's very, very good work done by NIH, FDA, ONC, & CDC. And good people. I'm horrified at what's going to happen there.
There were some awesome HIPAA/privacy jobs posted on USAjobs earlier in the year that I would have jumped on to apply for if the possibility of this administration wasn't looming. I'm sure I'm not the only excellent candidate who gave pause to working for the federal government as recently as a year ago. Much fewer now. And these are not political jobs. They're the jobs of keeping the country running.
I don't know what is going to happen, but I do know a lot of good, innocent people are going to be hurt by this change in administration, and if the dust ever settles, it will take a lot to get people to trust that their world isn't going to be upended every four years.
