EXCLUSIVE — A new letter from a government watchdog urged Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin to review the department’s contracts with Microsoft, citing the company’s employment of a former FBI official who once said she was “basically running a shadow government across the FBI.”
Democracy Restored, a self-described nonpartisan watchdog, sent Mullin a letter Tuesday asking the Department of Homeland Security to examine Microsoft’s existing and pending contracts, assess whether former FBI official Nikki Floris has a role connected to DHS work, and take action if the department identifies security concerns, according to a copy obtained by the Washington Examiner.
