President-elect Donald Trump announced Friday that his former White House adviser, Sebastian Gorka, will serve in his incoming administration.
Trump, 78, revealed in a Truth Social post that Gorka will serve as deputy assistant to the president and senior director for counterterrorism.
“Since 2015, Dr. Gorka has been a tireless advocate for the America First Agenda and the MAGA Movement,” the president-elect wrote.
“Dr. Gorka is a legal immigrant to the United States, with more than 30 years of National Security experience,” Trump added.
Gorka, 54, was born in London to Hungarian immigrant parents...
The conservative firebrand at the time blamed “forces” opposed to Trump’s “MAGA promise” for pushing him out.
Retired Gen. John Kelly — now a vocal critic of Trump — had recently taken over as White House chief of staff when Gorka departed.
After leaving 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., Gorka continued to back Trump on his radio show, podcast and during regular appearances on cable news programs.
In 2022, Gorka sued the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol Building after it sought to obtain his phone records.
The former White House adviser, who acknowledged watching Trump’s speech at the Ellipse on the day of the riot, slammed the committee’s subpoena as a “partisan fishing expedition.”
In his announcement, Trump noted that his relationship with Gorka started in 2015, when he served as “one of my Advisors for the GOP Primary Debates on National Security.”
“At the time, he held the Major General Matthew C. Horner Chair of Military Theory at the Marine University Foundation, and was a Guest Instructor at the JFK Special Warfare Center and School, Fort Bragg,” Trump said. ...
I guess no more radio show.
Congrats, Seb.
Yes!
I will miss his show.
I listen to him every day.
Maybe he will have time to do weekly podcast
with updates on what he is seeing?
Trump is getting the band together again!
Yeah.
Listening to good radio shows really becomes a part of one’s daily routine.
Michael Medved went off the rails and Gorka’s show replaced it.
And now I assume Gorka’s show will be replaced.
So, Bannon is still PNG?
The Warroom will soon be bereft of “guests”!
Yup! Just saw Dr. Dave Weldon will be head of CDC. Good choice of someone we knew in Florida.
His radio show has the best opening. A historical recap of America itself.
Bring back officer Tatum
I am not sure that Levin wants to give up his radio and TV shows and sweet life in SE Florida.
Hasn't F.Lee Levin also had some health issues recently?
Someone should explain to the dumb broad that we have a two party system....and that's how it works.
Yes. Levin has experienced anxiety and depression. He deals with them through medication and talk therapy. I do not think that Levin would find the meat grinder of life as a public official in Washington beneficial to his mental health.
No doubt, but Bondi is now Trump’s pick.
Thanks. I’ll read a bit about him.
Yeah. Now there’s a spot for him.
I’m hoping he’ll find a position for Leo 2.0 Terrell !
