As an immigrant, I can’t believe it happened. Not once. But twice.
Just the sheer idea of being appointed by the President of the United States to work for him in the White House, well that doesn’t happen elsewhere. The idea of immigrants being able to advise the leader of the nation, only in America. That is America. And I still get chills from remembering walking around the West Wing the day after the Inauguration, January 2017, and only having sworn my oath to America and her Constitution 5 years earlier during my naturalization ceremony.
And serving as Deputy to the President for Strategy as an immigrant is just one version of the American Dream.
But then it happened again.
There is a body of the Defense Department which oversees education for our military, making sure that our warfighters are learning the subjects they need to best understand America’s enemies and prepare to defeat them. That body is the National Security Education Board, or (NSEB). And although, I had left the White House to run my national radio show America First, in the Summer of 2020, President Trump gave me a second Presidential commission to be one of his appointees to the NSEB and serve on the Pentagon board for a 4-year term mandated by the statute that created the advisory body.
Then on Friday, I received an email from the Biden White House.
In it, someone called Guatam Raghavan, an Obama-flunky who is now Director of Presidential Personnel, demanded I resign from my Pentagon position by 5pm or I would be “terminated.”
The strange thing is, I’ve held that position for more than 3 years. Is the Biden Administration so incompetent that it takes them years to realize that a high-profile Conservative, a former White House adviser to President Trump, is in a legacy position? Or is there something else going on?
I immediately emailed the White House my response:
From: Dr Sebastian Gorka

Subject: Re: Request for Resignation
To: MBX WHO PPO Process
The federal Legislation relating to NSEB tenure does not allow for the incumbent Executive to terminate board members early.
I reject your illicit demand.

In other words, I’ll be at the next NSEB meeting with the illegally appointed Biden stooges, and I’ll see Biden in court.
In the meantime, there is, what journalists call, a “buried lede” to this tale.
Of course trying to fire someone from a position they can’t be removed from before their tenure expires is just another example of how Democrats have utter contempt for the law and the Constitution. Just last week, despite the Supreme Court stating that he cannot do so, Joe Biden again, wrote-off the student loans of people whose votes he wants to buy using your taxpayer money, 380,000 votes, all paid for by you.
And this isn’t just about Biden and the last 3 years. Remember what his old boss said when challenged on his unconstitutional actions and not working with Congress to legislate “fundamental transformation?” He just replied that ‘he’s got a pen and a phone and he’s going to use it. Who cares whether it’s illegal?’
But the real story here is not about my position. It’s about why now? Because Biden’s team knows he’s going to lose. Just look at the polling and President Trump’s truly historic primary results and his growing popularity among minority voters, especially black Americans. The Democrats are therefore on the run and subverting the system before they lose officially.
There is a term used by those who have worked in government and understand the depth and width of corruption across government. Before Obama ended his second term as President, hundreds and thousands of his “Schedule C” political appointees were quietly converted into GS-scale civil servants all across government. This practice is called “burrowing,” turning political actors into permanent assets for the Democrat elite under the cover of being just “bureaucrats.”
Mine is a special case because I have a national platform to talk about how the Democrats are trying to subvert one government position. Joe Biden tried to fire me and failed. But his lackeys know President Trump is coming and they will try to not only subvert the election, but put their people in place if, God willing, the patriots win at the ballot box.
Yep. We need more push back.
And a LOT more people like this guy.
I know a guy who was appointed by Trump to serve on a similar committee. His tenure was to begin in 2021 but he hadn’t been confirmed yet. Of course, the moment Biden got in, he received a similar letter.
His pockets aren’t deep enough nor does he have the microphone Gorka does so he couldn’t fight it.
Biden normally hires only former “Carny” people. Real sideshow stuff.

Yep, Seb is awesome.
President Trump II should fire all executive services agency bureaucrats and political flunkies burrowed into the swamp system. Hire back those selected as essential by a constitution-oriented panel he creates if they serve the republic, enable Liberty, and preserve natural rights.
The wails would echo across swamp states but is no worse than government decisions recently aimed at destroying the American auto industry, outsourcing American Technological supremacy and the many jobs lost to hardworking citizens.
Sebastian prays that americans win at the ballot box but the sad fact is they also have to win at the vote counting tables which are controlled by people who hate this country.
Good for someone who apparently understands the law well & knows how to push back. We need more like Dr. Gorka...and a lot less in the pattern of Joe Biden. Biden needs a 24 hr. notice to leave the planet, or else.
So, how does the Trump administration fire these "burrowed" democrat operatives? Why aren't the republicans in Congress challenging this practice in court - now?
From what I understand, this ‘burrowing’ is allowed by law. Clinton did it in a massive way as he left office. The reason for doing it is because these people are almost impossible to fire by the next administration(s).
The strange thing is, I’ve held that position for more than 3 years. Is the Biden Administration so incompetent that it takes them years to realize that a high-profile Conservative, a former White House adviser to President Trump, is in a legacy position?
Why yes. Yes, they are that incompetent.
You ask a good question. But I wonder if Trump fired Gorka’s predecessor?
It does seem to be a common practice to exorcise staff from a previous administration
Since their jobs are protected by law, one of DJT’s first acts as President in January 2025 should be to transfer any and all employees burrowed by either Obama or Biden to offices in Fairbanks, Alaska, International Falls, Minnesota, or any other location with harsh weather.
Sir, if you have taken the oath an are a naturalized citizen, you are an AMERICAN, period.
Fight on! And you are correct, the Slow Joe administration knows their time is up, that Slow Joe is gonna be eating his ice cream cones in the Trembling Acres funeral home next year.
