You're tasked with the critical responsibility of heading up cyber security for the elections, in the wake of what took place in 2016. You have the enormous task of making sure our elections are carried out without any outside interference, and the will of the people holds, and our very democracy is preserved.
You know all the while, if you succeed in that critical task, that you will be fired.
And if you fail, and the current occupant of the Oval Office succeeds in turning our democracy into an authoritarian dictatorship, you're able to KEEP your job.

(94 posts)Krebs was supposed to replace her until a new DHS secretary was appointed and confirmed by the Senate. President Dumpsterfire circumvented that, and appointed Kevin McAleenan, who resigned a couple of months later, and Dumpsterfire then made Chad Wolf the Acting Secretary.
A couple of days ago, a Federal judge ruled that Wolf was appointed illegally (making his attempts to dump DACA null and void).
So....IMO, Biden should at least consider Krebs to take over the job he was supposed to, and nominate Krebs as DHS Secretary.
