One of the prominent critics of President Trump from his first administration has warned that the White House’s “loyalty scorecard” for businesses is a step toward authoritarianism.
Miles Taylor, a former Department of Homeland Security official who wrote an anonymous New York Times op-ed in 2018 documenting internal resistance in the Trump White House, wrote on his Treason Substack page that the business blacklist is “another totally unprecedented (and quasi-authoritarian) development out of the White House.”
Taylor was responding to an Axiosreport from last Friday that revealed the White House’s sprawling system for tracking private companies’ loyalty to the administration.
