This is Justin Fox, a former DOGE staffer assigned to the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) who said his job was to review and flag grants for "DEI" which would then go to superiors for termination under Trump's Executive Order.

This deposition is part of a lawsuit filed by the American Council of Learned Societies, the American History Association, and the Modern Language Association. They say Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) used ChatGPT to process to identify DEl programs to inform decisions to terminate grants awarded by the NEH.

Abdikafi Abdurahman Abdullahi, known as Kafi, is one of the few people willing to speak publicly about being subjected to the Department of Homeland Security’s new facial recognition tool, Mobile Fortify.
