The Guardian has a story detailing the firing of Christopher Krebs, who served as the director of the Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (Cisa)
President Trump made the announcement on Twitter on Tuesday, saying Krebs "has been terminated" and that his recent statement defending the security of the election was "highly inaccurate".
CISA last week released a statement refuting claims of widespread voter fraud. "The November 3rd election was the most secure in American history," the statement read. "There is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised."
Krebs, is a former Microsoft executive, and was appointed by President Trump after allegations of Russian interference with the 2016 election.

Citation please because I've heard lots of "oh we saw it happening!" and zero actual proof. Show me the tech demo where this happens.
For Diebold machines - you know, the ones which somehow only were used in states where Trump ended up winning? - we have lots of tech demos of vulns. Find them on youtube. It's a popular target at hacker cons.
For these claims of Trump's, there have been no demos presented. Why is that? Is that because it can't be reproduced? Almost as if the bug rep is spurious?
All of us who work in QA have got these calls before. "My file! Your software ate my file!" and it turns out the person is looking under the wrong path.
TL;DR: Steps to duplicate - as we have with the Diebold machines which gave states to Trump - or GTFO.
