On Wednesday, Donald Trump decided to fire cybersecurity expert Christopher Krebs after he refused to commit to the president’s conspiracy theories about the election.
Trump took to Twitter to announce that he decided to fire Krebs for not being loyal to him. The president tweeted the following:
“The recent statement by Chris Krebs on the security of the 2020 Election was highly inaccurate, in that there were massive improprieties and fraud – including dead people voting, Poll Watchers not allowed into polling locations, ‘glitches’ in the voting machines which changed votes from Trump to Biden, late voting, and many more. Therefore, effective immediately, Chris Krebs has been terminated as Director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.”
