Donald Trump summoned the Ministry of Justice on Wednesday, April 9 on Wednesday, April 9 to conduct investigations on two former collaborators at the time of his first mandate in the White House, one of which accuses of “betrayal”, an extremely unusual approach from an American president.
Miles Taylor, former member of the Ministry of Internal Security (DHS), and Christopher Krebs, former director of the American Cybersecurity Agency (CISA) are attacked. In two presidential documents that attack them separately and signed in the Oval Office in the afternoon, Donald Trump gives as a directive the Ministry of Justice to open investigations on their respective activities.
“Like espionage”
The first, then parked in the DHS, wrote in 2018 a forum in the New York Times that throws the Republican President, under the pseudonym “Anonymous”. “The root of the problem is the amorality of the president,” he punished, accusing him of making “medium reflexive decisions, badly informed, sometimes irresponsible.”
Miles Taylor had revealed his identity by publishing a book entitled “A WARNING” (“A WARNING”) after leaving the US administration. According to one of the White House advisors, Will Scharf, is criticized for “revealed confidential information” and “scandalous accusations formulated” about Trump’s first government.
“I just remember it. It’s someone who left, who wrote a book and said all kinds of terrible things. That lies,” Donald Trump attacked. “I think it’s a traitor. It’s like spying. I think it’s guilty of betrayal, if you want to know everything.”
“Can we write a book about very confidential meetings? We will know if someone is authorized or not to do this. This is a very important issue,” he said.
Miles Taylor reacted to X to the presidential directives, claiming to have predicted that the Republican billionaire would behave as such. “The difference in opinion is not illegal. It is certainly not a betrayal. America takes a very dark orientation,” he wrote.
Christopher Krebs returned in 2020
The second objective of the Republican President, Christopher Krebs was fired by Donald Trump in November 2020 after making a report establishing that there was no fraud evidence in the 2020 presidential elections, won by his Democratic opponent Joe Biden. Then he described him as the “safer in American history.”
“We will know if the election has been regular or not, and if it has not been, it will have a heavy price to pay,” Donald Trump threatened, treating the former leader of the “imposter” and once again repeating his accusations of a managed choice.
From his return to the White House in January, the one who is the first American president sentenced to Criminal, attacked many former officials to those who consider political enemies, especially removing access to confidential information. But it seems that until now he had not instructed the Ministry of Justice, in independent theory, to open investigations on political opponents.
