Ex-Trump official Miles Taylor says Trump memo targeting him has made him "completely radioactive"

Washington — A homeland security official who served during President Trump's first term and who authored an anonymous op-ed criticizing him is speaking out after he was targeted by the president in an executive memo.

Miles Taylor, who was chief of staff at the Department of Homeland Security and left the Trump administration in 2019, said learning of the memo was a "gut punch" that has taken a devastating toll. 

"When you get named on a modern black list from the White House, it results in the systematic destruction of your life, professionally and personally," Taylor told CBS News in an interview on Thursday.
