Overview

• President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social that Microsoft should dismiss Lisa Monaco, describing her as a threat to U.S. national security.
• Trump accused Monaco of corruption and argued her role gives unacceptable access to highly sensitive government information.
• Recent reporting says the government revoked Monaco’s security clearances and barred her from federal facilities.
• Monaco served as Barack Obama’s homeland security and counterterrorism adviser and as Joe Biden’s deputy attorney general, and she joined Microsoft in July.
• The demand fits a broader campaign targeting perceived opponents as the Justice Department charges James Comey and Trump signals he expects additional indictments.
