Trump asks Microsoft Fire Head of Global Affairs

Donald Trump published his latest challenge to test the loyalty of American companies to his administration. On Friday, the president decided to browse Microsoft’s personnel decision and called for the company to dismiss its president of global affairs, Lisa Monaco, on her previous work under the Obama and Biden administrations – A warning shooting apparently shot the advice of far -right activist Laura Loomer.

Trump called Monaco, who previously was the general vice-prosecutor at the Biden Administration and internal security advisor to President Obama, “corrupt and completely disturbed”, he also said that because of his links with previous administrations, she is “a threat to American national security, in particular given the major contracts not Read as a threat to revise and potentially revoke the lucrative federal markets that Microsft landed.

“I think Microsoft should immediately end Lisa Monaco’s employment,” wrote Trump. Microsoft refused to comment when contacted by Gizmodo.

Why does the president issuing opinions on an employee who does not even appear on the page of the Microsoft management team? It seems that it is because Laura Loomer again withdrew in the ear. In July, Loomer targeted Monaco, the Microsoft decision -making striker to use engineers in China to help provide technological support to the Ministry of Defense. The connections take red string and the plug card to be done, but Loomer went ahead and connected the points.

Friday, she took the credit of the president who followed the trial and asked Microsoft to reject Monaco. “After alerting President Trump to the fact that Microsoft hired Lisa Monaco to be their new world affairs president, he has just called Microsoft to end his job,” she wrote on X. (For what it is worth, Monaco was hired in May, and Loomer did not mention it until July, so apparently, it takes a certain time to reach the office of Trump.).

In the post, she also marked the CEO of Microsoft Satya Nadella and asked: “Are you going to comply?” Who certainly has echoes of the head of the Federal Communications of Communications Brendan Carr by saying to ABC: “We can do it the simplest or the hard way” as regards Punishing Jimmy Kimmel on a monologue that the Conservatives did not like. It looks like an attempt to force companies to capitulate the wishes of the administration – although, at least in the case of Loomer, it has no formal power.

If anything, Trump can be better with Monaco stuck in a head office somewhere rather than in legal waters as a cop on the pace. Under Biden, Monaco participated in the creation of the national team for the application of the cryptocurrency, which led repression on cryptographic scams similar to those whose president and his family took advantage of. Previously, she was a member of the Enron working group of the Ministry of Justice and was involved in the accusation of five former leaders of Enron.
