Who is Lisa Monaco? Why does Donald Trump ask Microsoft to fire "Deranged" advocate?

US President Donald Trump on Friday called on Microsoft to fire his head of Lisa Monaco, head of the world affairs, who also served as senior official in democratic administrations. Trump’s move seems to be his latest attempt to get rid of those he considers political enemies. His proposal to Microsoft comes a day after the accusation of former FBI director James Comey. Lisa Monaco helped to coordinate the response from the Justice Department on January 6, 2021 to the US capital by Trump supporters. In a post on Truth Social, Trump Monaco ‘corrupts and totally weakened Trump’. He further said that she is a ‘threat’ to US national security, especially given the most important contracts Microsoft has with the US government. “It is my opinion that Microsoft must immediately end the employment of Lisa Monaco,” he wrote. Donald Trump argued that her tenure as a former Deputy Attorney General and linked to matters he regarded as out -of -law should get her fired. “Monaco has the kind of access, is unacceptable and cannot be allowed to stand,” he said. Since Trump returned in January, he has used his powers as president to obstruct law firms that have causes that he does not like, use the federal funding to force changes to universities and dismissed prosecutors who participated in the investigation against him.
