President Trump called for Microsoft to fire Lisa Monaco, former President Biden’s No. 2 Justice Department official, who was recently appointed as the company’s chief of global affairs.

In a post on Truth Social Friday, Trump called Monaco “corrupt and totally deranged” and, citing national security concerns, called for her to be terminated from her role.

“Monaco has been shockingly hired as the President of Global Affairs for Microsoft, in a very senior role with access to Highly Sensitive Information. Monaco’s having that kind of access is unacceptable, and cannot be allowed to stand,” Trump wrote.

“She is a menace to U.S. National Security, especially given the major contracts that Microsoft has with the United States Government,” he continued. “Because of Monaco’s many wrongful acts, the U.S. Government recently stripped her of all Security Clearances, took away all of her access to National Security Intelligence, and banned her from all Federal Properties.”

“It is my opinion that Microsoft should immediately terminate the employment of Lisa Monaco,” the president added, signing his name at the end of the post.

Microsoft declined to comment on the story.

Monaco, as Biden’s deputy attorney general, was closely involved in the federal investigations into Trump’s role in the lead-up to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol and into his mishandling of classified documents.

Earlier this year, Trump rescinded Monaco’s security clearance, along with that of other former political opponents, including Biden.

The push for Microsoft to terminate the former high-ranking DOJ official comes a day after a federal grand jury indicted former FBI Director James Comey on charges of making a false statement, as well as another for obstruction of a congressional proceeding in connection with testimony he gave before the Senate in 2020. Comey has maintained his innocence, stating that he never knowingly gave false testimony before Congress.

Trump said Friday that he hopes “there are others” who will face charges, accusing Democrats of previously “weaponizing the Justice Department like nobody in history.”
