A former Trump administration official who penned a scathing anti-Trump op-ed and book under the pen name “Anonymous” made his identify public on Wednesday.

Miles Taylor, a former chief of staff at the Department of Homeland Security, said in a tweet: “Donald Trump is a man without character. It’s why I wrote ‘A Warning’ … and it’s why me & my colleagues have spoken out against him (in our own names) for months. It’s time for everyone to step out of the shadows.”
