‘ANONYMOUS’ ANTI-TRUMP AUTHOR OUTS HIMSELF AS FORMER DHS CHIEF OF STAFF. HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW:
The man who penned a 2018 op-ed attacking the administration of President Donald Trump from within, hiding his identity, has revealed himself for the first time.
The man, who also wrote a book, A Warning, under the name “Anonymous,” is former Department of Homeland Security Chief of Staff Miles Taylor.
“Donald Trump is a man without character. It’s why I wrote ‘A Warning’…and it’s why me & my colleagues have spoken out against him (in our own names) for months. It’s time for everyone to step out of the shadows,” he said in a tweet with a link to his statement.
Earlier this year, “Taylor denied being ‘Anonymous,’ and did so on CNN:”
In April, “President Trump’s former deputy national security adviser, Victoria Coates, [denied] new allegations that she is ‘Anonymous’ — the author behind a New York Times op-ed and later a book detailing a resistance movement against President Trump within his own administration.”
Today, Taylor is weaseling out of an apology to her:
The “too” in the above tweet is a nice touch:
