President Donald Trump declared Friday that Microsoft needs to fire Lisa Monaco, the company\u2019s president of global affairs.<\/p>\n
Citing her roles as \u201ca senior National Security aide under Barack Hussein Obama, and a Lawfare and Weaponization obsessed Deputy Attorney General under Crooked Joe Biden and Lisa\u2019s Puppet \u2018Boss\u2019 Attorney General Merrick Garland,\u201d Trump posted on Truth Social that Monaco\u2019s current role gives her access to \u201cHighly Sensitive Information,\u201d which he deemed \u201cunacceptable.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is my opinion that Microsoft should immediately terminate the employment of Lisa Monaco,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n
As Trump noted, Monaco worked with both Barack Obama and Joe Biden, including as a deputy attorney general under the Biden administration. Trump rescinded Monaco\u2019s security clearance earlier this year, in the an order that did the same for Biden, Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton, and the Biden family.<\/p>\n
A Microsoft spokesperson declined to comment. Monaco joined the company in May, taking on a role overseeing the company\u2019s cybersecurity policy and its relationship with world governments.<\/p>\n
Far-right activist and Trump ally Laura Loomer has repeatedly criticized Microsoft for hiring Monaco in posts on X, complaining in one post that Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella was \u201cborn in India\u201d and accusing him of \u201cdisgraceful scammer behavior.\u201d\u00a0On Friday, Loomed triumphantly quoted Trump\u2019s post and again called on the president to \u201ccancel all of Microsoft\u2019s government contracts.\u201d<\/p>\n
This isn\u2019t the first time Trump has targeted a tech executive since returning to office. He previously said that Intel President Lip-Bu Tan must \u201cresign immediately\u201d over alleged conflicts of interest. Then, after Intel gave the government a 10% stake in exchange for funding already committed by the Biden administration, Trump described Tan as a \u201cHighly Respected Chief Executive Officer.\u201d<\/p>\n
