Miles Taylor on Whistleblowing and Being Targeted by Trump

Miles Taylor is a national security expert who works in Washington, DC as editor of the recently launched newsletter TREASON on Substack and as spokesperson for www.EndPresidentialRevenge.org. Taylor previously served as chief of staff at the US Department of Homeland Security, where he published a bombshell “Anonymous” essay in The New York Times, blowing the whistle on presidential misconduct. He later published the #1 national bestseller A Warning, revealed himself to be the author, and launched a campaign of ex-officials to oppose Donald Trump’s reelection. He’s worked as an advisor in the George W. Bush administration, on Capitol Hill, as a CNN contributor, and is the cofounder of a DC-based charter school and multiple democracy-reform groups. Taylor is also the author of The New York Times best-selling book Blowback and the host of the iHeartRadio podcast “The Whistleblowers.” Miles became the target of Trump in an April executive order. He joins me for a frank discussion of what these past few months have been like for him and his family, how he's fighting against it, and the overall importance of whistleblowing in holding politicians and government officials accountable.
