Termination of Christopher Krebs comes amid removals of high-level officials seen as insufficiently loyal to the president
Donald Trump has fired the director of the federal agency that vouched for the reliability of the 2020 election and who pushed back on the president’s baseless claims of voter fraud.
Trump fired Christopher Krebs, who served as the director of the Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (Cisa), in a tweet on Tuesday, saying Krebs “has been terminated” and that his recent statement defending the security of the election was “highly inaccurate”.
