Sebastian Gorka- What we know at this point

• He is currently a member of the national security advisory staff and serves as a deputy assistant to Trump
  
  
• From 2014 to 2016, Gorka was an editor for National Security Affairs for the Breitbart News Network, where he worked for Bannon.
  
  
• Three days after Trump won the presidency, he glorified the display of a photo of a dead body. NPR’s Welna recounted this event, stating:
  
   "I’m gonna start with something a tad naughty,“ he told a giddy crowd of Trump supporters. “We are happy. But I am going to show a picture I’m not meant to show usually.“A grisly photo was then projected onto a large screen of the body of an insurgent lying face down, with an AK-47 at its side. “We can win now,” Gorka roared before the cheering crowd. “We can win!”
  
  
• Gorka was photographed at an inaugural ball wearing a medal from the Hungarian Order of Heroes, Vitezi Rend, a group listed by the State Department as taking direction from Germany’s Nazi government during World War II.
  
  
• The Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect made a statement on March 17 calling for “Departments of Justice and Homeland Security to investigate whether Sebastian Gorka falsified his U.S. naturalization application by failing to disclose his membership in a Hungarian neo-Nazi organization.” 
  
  
• Gorka’s mother worked with David Irving on a book on the Hungarian revolution called Uprising.Irving was later jailed for Holocaust denial. 
  
  
• Gorka responded to accusations of his membership in Vitezi Rend by saying:
  
  “I am proud of what my father did. I am proud of his resistance to all forms of totalitarianism. By the bye laws I inherited the title of Vitez through the merits of my father, but I never swore allegiance formally”
