Trump’s firing of top election security official unsettles lawmakers

But Republicans, generally, have given Trump cover to file lawsuits and make wild claims about widespread fraud, despite offering congratulations to President-elect Joe Biden privately.

Chris Krebs, who until this week led the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency within DHS, was referring to the outlandish claims and conspiracy theories asserted by three Trump lawyers over 90 minutes at the Republican Party headquarters in D.C.

"59 election security experts all agree, "in every case of which we are aware, these claims either have been unsubstantiated or are technically incoherent", he wrote.

Chris Krebs, the Department of Homeland Security official who President Donald Trump fired via tweet this week, decried the Trump campaign's conspiracy-filled press conference challenging the results of the 2020 election as "dangerous" on Thursday.

CISA and GCC noted that there is no evidence that any voting system deleted, lost, or changed votes.

Trump released Krebs from his position within the Department of Homeland Security on Twitter, saying that his attitude towards election security is "highly inaccurate".

Sean Plankey, now a senior official at the Department of Energy, has in recent days contacted current and former officials at DHS to discuss working at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, according to three people with knowledge of the discussions who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

"When states have close elections, many will recount ballots".

Krebs said in his first statement following his firing that he was "honored to serve". We did it right.

Knowledge about his dismissal came to him from The President's tweet.

"In defending democracy, do or do not, there is no try". He announced that this was directly related to Krebs' statement wherein he mentioned that there was no evidence of any irregularities in the voting system.

CISA issued a statement last week that affirmed that the 2020 election was "the most secure in American history".

Oga Krebs na di latest official wey President Trump don sack afta defeat, plus di Defence Secretary Mark Esper wey e don pursue as report say President Trump dey doubt im loyalty.

A former Microsoft executive, Krebs coordinated efforts to ensure all electoral systems were protected from foreign and domestic interference in this year's election.
