," the senior administration official who wrote a scathing op-ed and book about the Trump White House.entitled"Why I'm not longer Anonymous," Taylor said he wrote the op-ed as a way to get the White House to focus on what he was saying about the danger he thought Trump posed to the country, instead of focusing on him.

"The decision wasn’t easy, I wrestled with it, and I understand why some people consider it questionable to levy such serious charges against a sitting president under the cover of anonymity. But my reasoning was straightforward, and I stand by it," Taylor wrote."Issuing my critiques without attribution forced the President to answer them directly on their merits or not at all, rather than creating distractions through petty insults and name-calling.

"We will do what we can to steer the administration in the right direction until — one way or another — it's over," the unnamed author wrote."We fully recognize what is happening. And we are trying to do what’s right even when Donald Trump won't." Trump accused the writer of treason and demanded that then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions find out the identity of the writer.On Wednesday, White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said, “This low-level, disgruntled former staffer is a liar and a coward who chose anonymity over action and leaking over leading. He was ineffective and incompetent during his time as DHS Chief of Staff which is why he was promptly fired after only serving in this role for a matter of weeks.

Satiristas The first rats to desert the sinking ship do NOT deserve better treatment.

Ok. Now NBC can report on the millions of dollars the Biden family have made off of dealings with Russia, China and Ukraine.

Viral among the media. Your analysis of the oped was Orange Man Bad, instead of why wouldn't Anonymous speak publicly if his convictions and concerns where so strong. Can't cover Hunter, but the coffee boy gets the rock star treatment.

Your media is biased in favor of one side, ignoring the facts and blocking information. It's time to close the door

A low level nobody, brought to you by NBC stellar investigative reporting BLAHAHAH

He’s a very low level guy that never met the president. You pos in media first reported high level insider. Liars. Oh and there was russia russia russia lies too.

Welcome in 'Trumps world': USA 320 million people with over 225.000 corona deaths. Germany 83 million people with over 10.000 corona deaths. Thanks God, that this man isn't chancellor in Germany!!! Believe in God, but don't trust Trump!!!

He probably worked with Trump on a daily basis as his chief of staff. It proves we can trust all those anonymous sources. And the Bidens never took any foreign money directly. Dont ask about Swiss though.

So much for a reliable high-level employee

A DISGRUNTLED MAIL ROOM CLERK

Total douchecanoe, did you go thru this liar’s agent in LA?

If you don’t like him or his policies, that’s fine, then you have the right to simply retire, look for another job, etc.... but you don’t have the right to blatantly attempt to sabotage an administration

Who? Super lame. 🖕🏻

Tell us more about the idiot Trump

Here's your 15 minutes dummy

The media painted him as 'high level'. The media knew who he was. Never trust anonymous sources.

🇺🇸Pres Bush & Laura, Hillary Clinton attacked/terror 2020. ADOLF HITLER'S plot against Queen of ENGLAND, aired with LIBYA Queens, wanted NE USA States or WNY HUD help, AFGHANISTAN'sSheikh Khalid Mohammed a King, son of Yassar Arafat. WNY Dead secretly ALIVE & POWs. LIBYA GovHUD

As i was reading the tweet i thought this was a picture of Rachel Maddow

Your page is God awful. Late & Liberal!! Do news, not commentary, & do it on time.

He’s still anonymous. Never heard of the guy. He was always a Trump hater. Move on 🥱 yawn

Thanks for telling us what we already knew!

Now that it’s all over you surface? 🙄

Ummm...Miles actually admitted he was Anonymous. Trump can not find his way out of paper bag. Let alone lead a nation.

Thank you Miles Taylor.

So.

Trump is lying about Miles Taylor: - he quit NOT fired - he was deputy in DHS NOT low level - he was NOT disgruntled, he was appalled ! Also if everyone leaves disgruntled; you must be a crappy boss. PERIOD !

Wow

He's the a Crazy Grandpa on the phone babbling on & on & on & on... 🤣 🤣 🤣 This is the GOP Great White Hope realDonaldTrump? 🤣 🤣 I'm just as surprised this Babbling Old Idiot hasn't destroyed America yet? 😔 I'm an (I) & already voted BidenHarris2020 to Save America! 😉

And tomorrow his staff will state ‘ he was joking ‘

This joke was a tell. Trump deep down was fearful that the anonymous source was in his inner circle as he fears betrayal and enforces loyalty like a mob boss.

realDonaldTrump it still might be 👁. More than one? 🕵️‍♂️

So does he work for CNN or Google? Trump seems to know a lot about him for such a low level “sleezebag.”

😂😂😂He might say anything.

Y’all are rally this stupid? He trolls you all the time.

Once Trump gives the kill order, his Q Trumpian cultist will gladly kill for their Dear Leader. BTW he 100% knows who Miles is, he just knows he can lie to his cultist and they will believe him. TrumpLiesEverytimeHeSpeaks

Couldn’t even get the ones in the camera shot behind him to wear a mask at this one. 👏👏👏 Unbelievable 😫

Dear Brothers and Sisters, 'WHAT THE HELL DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE?'... DJT said in 2016 TO 🇺🇸 CITIZENS WHO ARE AFRICAN AMERICAN . A LOT AT STAKE... PLEASE THINK AND VOTE!!!

All the people who could not be trusted?

So sad. He worries all his closest confidant might be out to take him down. So sad. But makes me super happy

Stay safe Trump has a crazy cult following everyone who works around him gets destroyed at least u had the guts to know what was happening was wrong and speak out the rest just hide behind computers like him

Replace any story about this piece of shit with stories about animals dressed up for Halloween.
