Exclusive | Former Trump Official Targeted With Government Probe Vows to… | Alex Stamos
*The following is a message from Alex and Katie Stamos and does not represent any company or organization* Working with Chris Krebs and getting to know his wife Emily and their five children has been one of the great honors of my life. For the entire time I have known Chris, he has demonstrated a deep love for his country, a dedication to protecting American democracy from foreign adversaries, and great skill in shaping the policy and technical environment to America’s advantage. After being unanimously confirmed by the United States Senate as the first Director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, Chris took an oath to protect and defend the United States Constitution. He was following this oath when he built the technical infrastructure needed to prevent vulnerabilities in state and local election systems, advocated for paper ballots, and provided unprecedented support for fifty bipartisan Secretaries of State who uniformly praised his leadership during the 2020 election. He was also following this oath when he reported his observations to the American people. The might of the Executive Branch is now aimed at Chris and his family based on personal targeting so corrosive to democratic norms that the Framers explicitly disallowed it in our Constitution. Chris and Emily made the decision years ago to forgo the rewards of the private sector for government service, for them to face an legal attack that was marked out-of-bounds at the founding of our nation should be publicly condemned by any American who believes in the Constitution as the guiding document of our country. Considering how honorably Chris and Emily have acted, it is no surprise that Chris has decided to step down from SentinelOne in an effort to spare his colleagues from collective punishment for actions he took as a Senate-confirmed officer of the President’s last administration. My wife Katie and I stand 100% behind the Krebs family and we pray for them and for the future of our democracy. https://lnkd.in/ghiKCriD
