In the lead-up to the election, Krebs had often quietly disputed the President's repeated false claims about mail-in ballots but went out of his way to not get drawn into criticizing his boss for spreading lies. On Friday, Krebs was on the virtual morning meeting, a DHS source said, and that so far it was "business as usual." A state election official said they are watching to see what happens to Krebs.
