JUDGE JEANINE PIRRO

Sebastian Gorka is one of the clearest, most consistent, and most eloquent defenders and explainers of the Trump phenomenonand he has played that role with courage and good humor despite being vilified and slandered by the Left. Here, he uses that experience to throw light on the current battle for our culture and delivers a work of insight and encouragement for everyone who wants to see America rediscover its founding ideals.

ANDREW KLAVAN

In this spirited defense of the Trump presidency, administration veteran Sebastian Gorka connects the illegitimate progressive efforts to abort the Trump presidency to a larger and multifaceted elite project of transforming America into something that the Founders never intended and most Americans simply do not want. Gorka will have none of itand he offers a lively invitation to join him in saying NO.

B Y D ENNIS P RAGER

I had never heard the name Sebastian Gorka until I came across it in the Forward, a left-wing newspaper. Ever since I was a graduate student of Communist Affairs at the Russian Institute of Columbia Universitys School of International Affairs, I have always read the left. At that time, I regularly read Pravda, the Soviet Communist newspaper. After graduate school, I read English language equivalents published in America. One of the earliest and most important revelations of my life was that there was essentially no difference between Pravdas positions and those of the left in the United Stateson America, the world, and just about every other topic.

To this day, I read left-wing journals and writers at least as much as I do conservative journals and writers. Thats why I regularly read the Forward. So, I came across a Forward article that asserted there was a high-ranking figure in the Trump administration with a pro-Nazi past: a man named Sebastian Gorka.

I am a Jew who has spent much of his life fighting for Jews and against antisemitism. When I was twenty-one-years-old, the Israeli government sent me into the Soviet Union to smuggle in Jewish religious items (banned, as all religious items were, by the Soviet regime), and, even more importantly, to smuggle out names of Soviet Jews who wanted to emigrate from the Soviet Union. Almost the only way Jews were allowed to leave the Soviet Union was at the personal invitation of another government, usually Israel. As a young Jew who was committed to Israel, Jews, and Judaism, had attended yeshivas until college, and who, as a bonus, spoke Hebrew and Russian, I was precisely the type of person the Israelis wanted for such an endeavor.

Upon returning to America, I immediately became a leader in the movement to save Soviet Jewry. Shortly thereafter, I wrote an introduction to Judaism (The Nine Questions People Ask about Judaism) that is still published and read. I also taught Jewish history at Brooklyn College, and fought antisemitism on the left and right.

I cite all this so that the reader understands how much it would disturb me as a Jew and as an American to even imagine that a pro-Nazi was serving in the highest echelons of the American government.

But I was not disturbed by the Gorka article in the Forward. The reason is that fifty years of reading and listening to the left has taught me that truth is not a left-wing value. Truth is a liberal value, and truth is a conservative value. But it has never been a left-wing value. When leftists write or say anything, they do not ask themselves, Is this true? They ask, Is this effective in destroying opponents?

Nevertheless, having no information on this Sebastian Gorka, I could not counter what I assumedbut did not know how to provewas a smear.

Then, about a month later, on March 17, 2017, the venerable Jerusalem Post published a masterful pieceThe Forward Is Dead Wrong, Gorka Is a Defender of Israel, Jewsthat proved the Forward article about Gorka was a lie.

The Jerusalem Post authors conclusion? The Forward could not find a single shred of evidence suggesting that Sebastian Gorka has ever done or said anything even remotely antisemitic.

In fact, the authors made clear, not only were Gorka and his family not antisemitic, they were profoundly pro-Jew. I then spent a considerable amount of time on my national radio show reading from the Jerusalem Post and defending this man, Sebastian Gorka, against the terrible charge of antisemitism.
