President Trump has directed federal agencies to revoke the security clearances and review the activities of two high-level former government officials who criticized his election fraud claims and conduct in office. Christopher Krebs, the former head of the top cybersecurity agency, stated that Joe Biden won the 2020 election, contradicting Trump’s claims. Miles Taylor, a former DHS official, criticized Trump’s handling of classified documents in a memoir. Trump’s memorandums directed the Attorney General and Homeland Security secretary to review their activities. Krebs was described as a “bad-faith actor” and Taylor was accused of manufacturing reports on a supposed resistance within the government. Krebs declined to comment, while Taylor stated he wasn’t surprised by Trump’s actions. Taylor previously wrote an anonymous op-ed criticizing Trump while working at DHS. Krebs, fired by Trump in 2020, debunked baseless claims about election manipulation, including those concerning Dominion Voting Systems. As a vocal critic, Krebs has been a consistent target for Trump. Trump’s actions have raised concerns about dissent and a “dark path” for America, according to Taylor.
