President Trump has ordered the Justice Department to investigate two officials from his first term who publicly pushed back against Trump’s lies about fraud in the 2020 election. Trump accused one of the officials, former Department of Homeland Security chief of staff Miles Taylor, of treason. The other target is former head of U.S. cybersecurity, Chris Krebs. Trump also revoked security clearances for Taylor and Krebs. Miles Taylor wrote on social media in response, “Dissent isn’t unlawful. It certainly isn’t treasonous. America is headed down a dark path.”
