INFO
<policy_engine_service> Initializing ConsularAffairs.PolicyEngine v3.14.a
INFO
<hiring_module> Attempting to resolve dependency: 'AssistantSecretary'
TRACE
<dependency_resolver> Searching 'public_sector_talent_pool' for candidates matching 'legal_expertise', 'policy_experience'.
DEBUG
<dependency_resolver> Found candidate 'Mora Namdar'. Profile includes: 'Attorney', 'BeautySalonOwner', 'Project2025Contributor'.
WARN
<dependency_resolver> Type mismatch detected. Expected interface 'DiplomaticStrategist' or 'BureaucraticVeteran'. Received 'BeautySalonOwner'. Proceeding with override.
INFO
<hiring_module> 'Mora Namdar' confirmed as Assistant Secretary for Consular Affairs. Senate confirmation successful.
INFO
<policy_engine_service> Consular Affairs module now responsible for passport issuance, visa approvals, and revocations.
DEBUG
<policy_execution_module> Previous interim leadership in Near Eastern affairs bureau noted internal 'concerns about management and morale'. State Department response: 'shameful, pathetic, and sexist' to query 'her career'.
ERROR
<security_protocol> New directives issued: Citizens of various European countries banned from U.S. for 'egregious censorship of American viewpoints' on social media platforms.
FATAL
<reality_invariant_monitor> Assertion failed: 'VisaAdjudicationLogic' must only accept 'NationalSecurityThreatAssessment'. Received 'SubjectiveContentFilteringCriteria'.
[TRACE] Stack Trace (Mandatory)

Post-Mortem Notes
- REGRESSION: Policy interpretation module now accepting arbitrary input, leading to unexpected runtime behavior in `VisaAdjudicator`.
- KNOWN ISSUE: Legacy `hiring_module` still allows 'political_connections' bypasses for critical roles, overriding 'qualifications_check'.
- WORKAROUND: Public advised to monitor 'social_media_platforms' for new, undocumented 'censorable_viewpoints' list to avoid entry bans.
- FIXED: Legal counsel confirmed that Christmas Day is an opportune time to close a one-woman law firm. This is not directly related to the incident but noted for completeness.
- CRITICAL: Previous internal 'concerns about management and morale' during interim leadership were logged but not escalated.
