Trump Accuses Former Official of Treason, Orders Investigation

Former DHS Official Miles Taylor Accuses Trump of Ordering Treason Investigation Washington, D.C. – Miles Taylor, a former Department of Homeland Security official who served under President Trump, has publicly accused the former president of ordering an investigation into him for alleged treason. Taylor, who previously wrote an anonymous op-ed criticizing Trump, claims that the investigation is a politically motivated attempt to discredit him. "He has decided, already, in his words, that I'm guilty of treason," Taylor told CBS News. "And now he's ordered people to go find the evidence to support that conclusion." Trump's executive memo, signed in April, ordered multiple government agencies to investigate Taylor and revoke his security clearances. The memo also targets individuals close to Taylor. Taylor vehemently denies leaking classified information, a key allegation in Trump's memo. The investigation's scope and the methods employed remain unclear, raising concerns about due process and potential political overreach. The situation underscores the ongoing political division and tensions within the United States. Further developments in this investigation are expected to unfold in the coming weeks.
