According to the Washington Post, citing a U.S. government official and two other informed sources, the White House dismissed a senior customs official earlier this week, primarily because he was allegedly connected to the author of an anonymous commentary article criticizing President Donald Trump in 2018. George E. Bogden, who was appointed executive director of the Office of Trade Relations at Customs and Border Protection this year, was asked to resign, which surprised other government officials. It remains unclear how the U.S. government linked Bogden to Miles Taylor, who was a Department of Homeland Security official when he wrote the anonymous commentary published in The New York Times, describing internal resistance within the government during Trump's first term.
