Terrible News: Sebastian Gorka resigns from Trump Administration
Sebastian Gorka, one of the last remaining conservatives in the Trump Administration has resigned, citing “the current state of the Trump administration.”
As reported at The Federalist, Gorka said in his resignation letter to President Donald Trump in part:
“Regrettably, outside of yourself, the individuals who most embodied and represented the policies that will ‘Make America Great Again,’ have been internally countered, systematically removed, or undermined in recent months. This was made patently obvious as I read the text of your speech on Afghanistan this week…
“The fact that those who drafted and approved the speech removed any mention of Radical Islam or radical Islamic terrorism proves that a crucial element of your presidential campaign has been lost…
“Just as worrying, when discussing our future actions in the region, the speech listed operational objectives without ever defining the strategic victory conditions we are fighting for. This omission should seriously disturb any national security professional, and any American who is unsatisfied with the last 16 years of disastrous policy decisions which have led to thousands of Americans killed and trillions of taxpayer dollars spent in ways that have not brought security or victory.”
“[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.”
Just one illustration of the radical-left coordination to rid the White House of conservatives comes from the guiding force of the Black Lives Matter Movement – the Freedom Road Socialist Organization, who wrote on August 14 as one of their “tasks as revolutionaries” in the wake of Charlottesville:
“People should try and organize systematic calling of politicians from both parties at the national and at the state level and get them to speak out publically against white supremacists in the White House, especially Steve Bannon, Stephen Miller and Sebastian Gorka. Maybe Sessions, too.”
Two down. Two to go.
Gorka was hired to lead Steve Bannon’s security advisory panel known as the “Strategic Initiatives Group.” Susan Rice was not a fan of Bannon’s advisory panel and told Lieutenant General H.R. McMaster over Twitter to “eliminate” it.
Now Bannon and Gorka are both gone.
Hope you will be able to choose your team, have direct reporting and daily access to POTUS, and can eliminate Strategic Initiatives Group. https://t.co/QK6SE0KlY0— Susan Rice (@AmbassadorRice) February 21, 2017
The news broke hours after the Hill reported that California Democratic Reps. Jared Huffman and Barbara Lee “unveiled proposals on Friday to cut off the salaries of controversial White House aides Stephen Miller and Sebastian Gorka.”
