American Thought Leaders: Sebastian Gorka: How the Trump Admin Will Tackle Terrorism and National Security Threats. Host: Jan Jekielek. Guest: Sebastian Gorka (12/19/24, podcast/video 49:57)
My job is going to be a reflection, an implementation, of what the president wants, what National Security Advisor Michael Waltz wants. Very simply put, to protect the innocent and to bring justice to evildoers.
It’s really that simple. My field is going to be counterterrorism. The terrorist threat is the personification of evil, and they wish to harm the innocent, whether it’s our American citizens who are still taken hostage by Hamas in the Middle East, whether it’s innocent people at a Christmas party in San Bernardino who were slaughtered by their jihadi colleagues just a few years ago.
My priority will be protecting the innocent from evildoers and bringing justice to those evildoers with all of my colleagues. —Dr. Sebastian Gorka
Dr. Sebastian Gorka will serve as Trump’s deputy assistant and senior director for counterterrorism at the National Security Council.
Hungarian born, British raised, and a proud American citizen since 2012, Gorka brilliantly explains the complex recent events in Syria and the incoming Trump administration’s likely foreign policy on NATO, the Middle East, Russia, and China.
