Just to save y'all a bit of time:

Officer for Civil Rights & Civil Liberties (acting), Tamara Kessler
http://www.dhs.gov/tamara-kessler (wellesley and harvard...oh my)
She is Tamara Jaycox Kessler, for those wishing to google about...

The right seems to despise the woman with a full and utter hate for her
ideology and complicity in various chicanery, such as being a former member
of the civil rights division of the DOJ and being assigned to investigate
the New Black Panther Party.  Apparently this is a blatant conflict of
interest...  I was just skimming...

Still, as DHS appointees go, she could be much worse, from a surface
reading.
