Trump demands Microsoft fire ex-Biden DOJ No. 2 Lisa Monaco: ‘She is a menace’

On Friday, former President Trump issued a demand for Microsoft to dismiss Lisa Monaco, the company’s president of global affairs and a former deputy attorney general during the Biden administration. He labeled her as “a threat to U.S. National Security” due to her access to “Highly Sensitive Information.”

In a post on Truth Social, Trump called on the tech giant to “immediately terminate Lisa Monaco,” cautioning that her position in charge of Microsoft’s global policy could endanger the corporation’s extensive U.S. government contracts.

Trump further asserted that Monaco had her federal security clearances revoked earlier this year and was prohibited from accessing government facilities due to unspecified “wrongdoing.”

At 57 years old, Monaco acted as the deputy attorney general under Joe Biden from 2021 until 2025, supervising prosecutions and national security issues as the second-in-command at the Justice Department.

Her role reportedly included overseeing high-stakes cases that were politically charged, including the prosecution of Trump and issues surrounding the January 6 events.

Additionally, Monaco served as the White House homeland security and counterterrorism adviser during the Obama administration from 2013 to 2017, where she coordinated responses to terrorist and cyber threats.

Prior to her current roles, she directed the Justice Department’s National Security Division as assistant attorney general from 2011 to 2013 and worked as principal associate deputy attorney general, as well as chief of staff to FBI Director Robert Mueller.

Microsoft has opted not to comment on the situation.

The Biden Justice Department has charged Trump with various criminal and civil offenses, including indictments over election interference led by Special Counsel Jack Smith regarding classified documents.

Critics have accused the Biden DOJ of accelerating prosecutions to damage Trump’s presidential campaign, although both Biden and Attorney General Merrick Garland asserted that actions were taken independently.

Smith is currently facing scrutiny from the Office of Special Counsel following allegations by GOP Senator Tom Cotton that his prosecution of Trump had political motives intended to influence the 2024 election.

Smith has denied any wrongdoing in this matter.

Trump’s request for Monaco’s dismissal from Microsoft arrives at a precarious moment for the tech giant.

Microsoft is currently under investigation for antitrust issues by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). This investigation commenced during the Biden presidency under Lina Khan and has gained momentum under Trump’s FTC chair, Andrew Ferguson.

Bipartisan concerns have been raised about Microsoft’s dominance in cloud computing, AI, and productivity solutions.

The FTC’s probe examines Microsoft’s bundling practices, especially regarding its cloud and cybersecurity solutions with Office productivity tools, which might lock federal agencies into contracts and reduce competition.

Microsoft has denied any misconduct related to these allegations.

On Thursday, Trump’s DOJ filed charges against former FBI Director James Comey for perjury and obstruction of justice.

These charges relate to Comey’s testimony to Congress in 2020 when he denied authorizing leaks to the media regarding FBI investigations into alleged Trump campaign collusion with Russia in 2015-16.

Comey has refuted the claims presented in the indictment.
