President Donald Trump announced late on Tuesday that he had "terminated" Christopher Krebs, who served as the first director of the Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). Trump claimed that Krebs' statement that the 2020 election was one of the most secure was "highly inaccurate." 

Shortly after Trump's announcement, Krebs tweeted: "Honored to serve. We did it right. Defend Today, Secure Tomorrow. #Protect2020."
