Overview

• In a Truth Social post Friday, Trump called Monaco a "menace to U.S. national security" and urged her "immediate" termination.
• Monaco joined Microsoft in July as president of global affairs after serving as deputy attorney general under Joe Biden and as a senior national security aide in the Obama administration.
• Trump cited March presidential memoranda revoking her security clearances, arguing her role could grant access to highly sensitive information at a company serving federal agencies.
• Microsoft did not immediately comment; U.S. agencies rely on its cloud and productivity tools, including a recent deal projecting $3.1 billion in one‑year savings for government use.
• The demand came a day after former FBI Director James Comey was indicted, extending the president’s pattern of publicly targeting perceived adversaries in government and the private sector.
