I posted this video as a comment on another thread two days ago, but this key interview needs a thread of its own.  I've listened to it two times and I'm sure I'll go back and listen to it again. FR reference: HarleyLady27 listened and said it was "FABULOUS". For the last several months, most of us have been wondering what exactly has been going on inside the West Wing.  Well, Dr. Gorka explains that here under the masterful guidance of Alex Marlow, probably the best political editor in the media today. Marlow (30) knows his subjects inside and out,...

Monday on his nationally syndicated radio show, conservative talker Rush Limbaugh reacted to the week before’s shake-ups within the Trump White House, including the departure of Sebastian Gorka. Limbaugh raised questions about Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Trump advisor and Director of the National Economic Council Gary Cohn and their loyalties to President Donald Trump. That led Limbaugh to ask why Cohn was still working at the White House given what he had reportedly said about Trump. ...more (w/audio)...

Kelly Sadler, a low-level staffer in the White House, lied about her credentials to push inaccurate leaked information to the press about the resignation of Dr. Sebastian Gorka from the administration.[snip] Sadler’s claim that she is a “Senior White House official” is not true. She is not a “Senior White House official.” She is a low-level press staffer, and a commissioned officer as a special assistant to the president. In addition, her claim that Gorka “did not resign” is also untrue. Gorka sent the president a detailed resignation letter, as multiple media outlets have reported.

Sebastian Gorka has been fired. Sherriff Joe has been pardoned.Harvey is wailing and pouring his heart out. So much weird news, so little time.I think I’ll go for a walk in the wilderness and appreciate my insignificance for awhile.Posted from: MOTUS A.D.

Sebastian Gorka is resigning his post as Deputy Assistant to President Trump, multiple sources familiar with the situation have told The Federalist. In a blunt resignation letter, the national security and counterterrorism expert expressed dissatisfaction with the current state of the Trump administration. “[G]iven recent events, it is clear to me that forces that do not support the MAGA promise are – for now – ascendant within the White House,” Gorka wrote. “As a result, the best and most effective way I can support you, Mr. President, is from outside the People’s House.” Gorka’s letter expressed unhappiness with the direction...

Appearing as a guest on Monday's New Day, liberal CNN political commentator Symone Sanders not only repeatedly smeared White House advisors Steve Bannon and Sebastian Gorka as "white supremacist sympathizers," but she even deceptively claimed that Gorka had characterized "brown people" as a problem. At 7:53 a.m. ET, as she debated former Virginia Republican Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli over the issue of why President Donald Trump had not more explicitly condemned white supremacy ideology, Sanders took aim at Bannon for associating himself and Breitbart News in the past with the "Alt-right" movement: CNN's Sanders Falsely Claims Gorka Called 'Brown People'...

Dr. Sebastian Gorka is a fabulous fighter, an expert at opposing the lies of the Fake News reporters. There are many skilled defenders of the Trump administration, but none is as authoritative as Gorka because he's a direct deputy of the President and is an expert on foreign affairs, particularly the fight against terrorism. Gorka deserves to be knighted for his regular battles with the Fake News. It's beautiful to see how he takes them down. So to celebrate, I've posted three of his YouTubes and created a heroic meme of the guy. Gorka in a friendly one-on-one discussion with...

Gorka takes down Anderson Cooper, but sounds like he's claiming the Donald Jr. emails are fake. (He actually didn't, but it did sound that way if you're not listening extremely closely. He needs to be more clear in how he talks about this.) This is video of their exchange.

White House aide Sebastian Gorka claimed in an interview aired Sunday that mainstream news media are losing influence, citing recent resignations at CNN and cuts at The New York Times. “To those supporters of the Trump administration who are worried by all the fake news reporting of the last 23 weeks, I can assure you, just ignore it,” Gorka, who serves as deputy assistant to President Trump, told radio host John Catsimatidis on AM 970 in New York. “The fake news complex is collapsing in on itself. We see that with the massive scandal at CNN, having to fire people...

Sebastian Gorka, an adviser to Donald Trump who has been under pressure over his links to Hungarian far-right groups, is leaving the White House. A senior official said Gorka, a former counterterrorism analyst for Fox News who joined the administration as an adviser, will be leaving the White House in the coming days. The official said that Gorka had initially been hired to sit on the strategic initiatives group, an advisory panel created by Trump’s chief strategist Steve Bannon to run parallel to the national security council. But that group fizzled out in the early months of the administration. Gorka...

Multiple White House sources confirmed to Breitbart News on Sunday evening that reports earlier on Sunday that Sebastian Gorka, a deputy assistant to President Donald Trump, is somehow leaving the White House are incorrect. “Incorrect,” one source told Breitbart News when asked about reports from the Washington Examiner and CNN that Gorka was leaving the White House. A second White House source with direct knowledge of these matters confirmed to Breitbart News that the reports are wrong. The Washington Examiner’s Sarah Westwood reported on Sunday that Gorka, an ex-Breitbart News national security editor, was leaving the White House for another...

Gorka says president made pragmatic call on Syrian strike, suggests little risk of escalation Sebastian Gorka, deputy assistant to the president, said on Friday morning that President Donald Trump’s populist supporters need not fear that the decision to strike a Syrian government target last week represents an embrace of neoconservatism. “It’s not a modification,” Gorka said Friday on “The Laura Ingraham Show.” “Donald J. Trump hasn’t changed from November 7 to Good Friday, April 14,” he said. “This isn’t 2003, this isn’t 1991 and the Gulf War, and the president has not changed one bit,” Gorka said. “This is not...

Sebastian Gorka, a deputy assistant to President Donald Trump, defended the president's national security decisions Wednesday on CNN. Host Jake Tapper asked Gorka what to make of National Security Adviser Michael Flynn's statement earlier in the day to Iran that the country is being "put on notice." "Well, it's a very simple signal: there's a new sheriff in town," Gorka said. "His name is Donald J. Trump, and we are not going to follow the policies of the prior administration, which really facilitated Iran in terms of getting more muscular, releasing those billions of dollars, and also bringing the JCPOA...

Yes. I know vanities are verboten. But I thought it interesting enough to report that, watching Gen Flynn enter Trump Tower today on Fox, Dr Sebastian Gorka is right there in step with the General (actually a step behind). Many of us here like and admire Gorka. He will be a powerful addition to Trump's advisory staff by way of Flynn.

Dr. Sebastian Gorka, author of the best-selling book Defeating Jihad: The Winnable War, joined human-rights attorney and former State Department official David Tafuri to discuss the Chelsea bombing. Gorka said that from his travel records, we now know that bomber Ahmad Khan Rahami visited Quetta, “the hotbed of Salafi jihadism,” and home base of the Afghan Taliban’s leadership, the Quetta Shura. ... The director of the FBI himself has said there are 900 cases they’re investigating that are linked to ISIS alone, in every state of the union. That’s a huge labor-intensive exercise,” he noted. “Secondly, we have seen that...

"I look at the last two years and I see the Islamic State fighting a two-front war," Gorka said on "Fox and Friends" this morning. "They're using violence in the region - in Iraq, in Syria, in Libya - to consolidate and expand the territory they hold ... and they are promoting attacks on the soil of the infidel." He described recent attacks in Paris, Brussels, Nice and Orlando as "guerrilla warfare." "That's exactly what we've seen in New York and in New Jersey this weekend," Gorka said, adding that a bloody knife attack at a Minnesota mall Saturday evening...

Dr. Sebastian Gorka: Trump Is Right, Obama and Clinton ‘Facilitated the Growth of ISIS Into the Most Powerful Jihadi Insurgency the World Has Ever Seen’ = full title = .. Appearing on Fox News Thursday, Breitbart News National Security Editor Dr. Sebastian Gorka, author of Defeating Jihad: The Winnable War, addressed Donald Trump’s comments that President Obama is the “founder of ISIS,” and the response from Democrats. “I’m not his spokesman, I’m not part of his campaign, so let him talk for himself,” Gorka said of Trump. “But if he means that the Obama Administration and Hillary Clinton facilitated the...

Dr. Sebastian Gorka .. about the massacre in Nice, and the role terrorism plays in the Islamist drive for global supremacy... Islamists have been telegraphing mass-casualty attacks using vehicles as weapons for a very long time ... if people in the West would ever “wake up” to the ISIS caliphate’s determination to impose Islamic law on the entire world... Fox viewers understand it. The military that I have the honor of working with, and the FBI agents that I work with, they get it. That’s not the problem,” said Gorka. “The problem is the decision-makers, the people sitting in the...

law enforcement agencies have been instructed to withhold records pertaining to the Orlando jihad attack from the public... Lt. Col. Ralph Peters .. this information was being kept secret because “it hurts the narrative.” “The one thing the Obama Administration will do at all costs is protect the narrative that Islam is a religion of peace .. It’s gone into the realms of the absurd. Nobody believes it. But this is the hard-left approach. You just stick to the party line.” If they finally admitted that Islamist terrorism has something to do with Islam, the whole rationale for their foreign...

“Did you see how dark it was? It’s likely that more people would have been killed.” This was Bill Clinton’s response to a suggestion that law abiding people with firearms of their own might have been able to save lives by stopping Islamic terrorist Omar Mateen at the Orlando nightclub Pulse. Of course, Bill was comfortably surrounded by armed security during his Bloomberg television interview, as was Barack during his speech in Orlando a few days later. But Obama offered an even more pointed dissent from those who believe the little people should be permitted the means of preserving their...
