Sebastian Gorka, senior director for counterterrorism for President Donald Trump, is “recalibrating” the whole intelligence community toward one message, he said.
“The No. 1 thing the president and [National Security Advisor Mike] Waltz cares about, whichever region of the world you’re talking about,” he told The Daily Signal, “is whether it [that region] is being used to plan and plot mass casualty attacks on the United States or against our servicemen anywhere in the world.”
If it is, Gorka said, “We are going to have a counterterrorism policy that affects that capacity to detect and to neutralize those threats before they ever occur.”
