Last night, as Fox's questionable national security expert and European fugitive Sebastian Gorka droned on with inflammatory, inaccurate and baseless accusations about the Donald Trump campaign being spied on, former Trump adviser A.J. Delgado blasted the effort as “Conspiracies-That-Don’t-Make-Sense.”
Mediaite explains:
Delgado, who served as an adviser on Trump’s campaign, responded to comments made by former White House aide and make-believe doctor Sebastian Gorka, who made a bold (and baseless) declaration on Fox Business Network Monday night.
“If the accusations turn out to be true about this asset, this mole, or what now seems to be the case, multiple FBI assets, this will be the first time ever in American history that one administration put covert assets for political purposes into the other party’s campaign to undermine, and potentially frame, the candidate of that party,” said Gorka, whose education at Corvinus University of Budapest apparently did not cover the Nixon administration.
Delgado was once a former staunch Trump advocate. She appeared often on Fox during the 2016 campaign. But as an article in The Atlantic details, shortly after the election, Delgado revealed that she was pregnant via an affair with fellow adviser Jason Miller. He was (and still is) married. Their relationship became acrimonious and as Miller’s career rose, Delgado’s stalled.
Apparently, Delgado is no longer the Trump cheerleader she once was. Let’s hope her difficulties opened her eyes to some realities about Trump and that it was not mere bitterness that turned her against him. However, Delgado’s tweets ripping Team Trump’s latest efforts to undermine the Russia investigation seemed grounded in facts and common sense, not emotions.
Are we really going w this?? That Obama put a spy inside the Trump campaign, to frame Trump? Srsly? Not sure if it’s IQ, ethics, or simple common sense but I cant. This is embarrassing. https://t.co/VEiLgsdEvJ

No one is flip flopping. I support much of the Trump 2016 campaign agenda. I just didnt take the turn into Conspiracies-That-Dont-Make-Sense nor “I Am Going To Insult and Attack Comey and Mueller even though both are admirable ppl” street. Not what I signed up for. #shrug https://t.co/B6nfUjk0gG

Don’t hold your breath for any Delgado appearance on Fox any time soon, though.
Watch the discussion that set off Delgado below, from Fox Business Network's May 21, 2018 The Intelligence Report with Trish Regan.
A shiny dollar (or two or thousands) that Seb didn’t watch the Royal Wedding. We Brits gave his dad refuge. By way of thanks, Seb never misses a chance to slag us off and especially our army which refused him a commission.
It’s important to understand that #DeepPedo Sebastian Gorka is certainly a Russian agent, tasked with destabilising Western democracy and overseeing the St. Petersburg troll farm. The assessment of Brit intel is that his father, who was given refuge in the UK, was a Soviet double agent. His son Sebastian has fluent Russian and has never satisfactorily accounted for his whereabouts 1992-1995 immediately on leaving university. That’s the real reason he was refused security clearance for various endeavours by the the UK, Hungary and the US respectively.
The second thing to understand about #DeepPedo Gorka is that he’s a nobody. He’s not an intellectual, not a politician, not a journalist. Indeed he has failed in each of these endeavours. The exalted title Fox News gives him of ‘strategist’ is just an affectation. The best that can be said of him is that he’s a propagandist, one whom most Brits find ridiculous. He could not do what he does in the UK. Indeed his voice is strikingly similar to the infamous Nazi propagandist Lord Haw Haw, hanged at the end of the Second World War. So similar one wonders whether he deliberately models his on it. Another British traitor, John Amery, also hanged at the end of the war, was apparently a family friend of his father.
Finally #DeepPedo Gorka is a fantasist, a pathetic Walter Mitty character who failed to make his way into the Brit army. For example in a recent Fox News segment about Gina Haspel https://www.mediamatters.org/video/2018/05/08/fox-news-panel-says-torture-while-gina-haspel-was-cia-was-no-big-deal/220158 Gorka said he was trained as an interrogator in the UK. This is a lie, one of several he presents about his entirely unremarkable volunteer service with the British army in his student days. Gorka studied languages at school (German, French, Latin), his only slight talent, and in reality he served in a unit providing Russian language training (thus his fluent Russian and he probably has Arabic as well, though he hides that, if the stories about his attending KGB training school 1992-1995 are true).
In short, Fox News’ so called security strategist Sebastian Gorka is a misshapen freak, an odious fraud and an evil pervert who was refused a commission by the British Army. He was introduced to its volunteer force by convicted pedophile Maurice O’Kane Pearce, responsible for the biggest sex abuse scandal ever to hit a British school.
A glance at Gorka’s head compared to his shoulder width shows how enormous it is, close to freakish. That’s often commented on, but surprisingly no one has followed through on the observation. The fact is Gorka suffers from acromegaly (‘gigantism’), a hormonal disorder, and has done so since his teens. That’s why his voice is so thick and ponderous. And the significance of this is that he would have been barred from military service in any regular army. It follows that all his posturing on military matters, his feigned expertise, is either bogus, at best mere armchair generalship of the sort those who genuinely serve universally despise, or that his claimed expertise was gained in some irregular theatre of war. And that’s a problem, because if that is so then he is an illegal himself, the pundit who has made a career out of feigning counter terrorism expertise himself a terrorist.
The truth is that Mr Gorka is a nauseating fantasist and fraud who was fired by both the FBI and the White House.
His claim that he served in the British Army investigating war crimes in the former Yugoslavia has been thoroughly exploded. He has never served, save possibly as a mercenary during the Bosnian Civil War 1992-1995. Indeed his medical condition (of which more later) would have failed him.
While studying to be a priest at Heythrop College, London (failing even in this modest endeavour), Gorka volunteered in the UK’s Territorial Army (TA), committing to a weekend a month and a fortnight’s annual camp, scarcely more than that of school cadets. He was introduced by Father David Pearce (lay name Maurice O’Kane), the junior school headmaster at his school who was in charge of the Cadet Corps and who maintained contacts with his pupils at Heythrop, later convicted of pedophilia in what has emerged as the biggest sex abuse scandal ever to involve a British school and the subject of several inquiries including one by the Vatican itself https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/devil-in-a-dog-collar-jailed-for-child-sex-attacks-1796776.html
A linguist, Gorka served in a group providing Russian language training whose function was confirmed by the UK Ministry of Defence in response to a Freedom of Information request by the journalist Anna Merlan of Jezebel https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/394540/response/962896/attach/html/3/20170407%20FOI03299%20Merlan.pdf.html This group was disbanded in 1992 with the end of the Cold War and with it Gorka’s military ambitions came to an abrupt end. He was subsequently refused a short-term commission by the British Army.
It so happens that the TA unit he volunteered with had a relatively impressive name, the 22 Intelligence Company of the Intelligence and Security Group. He has used this, for example when he became something of a counter terrorism pundit on Hungarian TV following the 9/11 attacks (and see also his faculty page at The Insitute of World Politics https://www.iwp.edu/faculty/detail/sebastian-gorka), to imply that he was involved with counter terrorism activities in both the British Army and the UK’s MI6, an entirely fantastic and ludicrous claim that ironically backfired on him because he failed as a result to get the security clearance he needed to take up a lucrative (Hungarian) government post offered him. Later still, when settled in the US with his American heiress wife Katharine Gorka nee Cornell, director of a USAID project based in Kosovo at the time of their marriage shortly after the end of the Bosnia war, and lecturing on so-called radical Islamic terrorism to FBI and other groups, he implied that he had served in the British Army investigating war crimes in the former Yugoslavia, another especially fantastic claim given that the tribunal involved was not set up until May 1993 long after Gorka’s entirely undistinguished TA service had ceased. Following an internal investigation, the FBI barred Gorka from giving further talks. We know also that the White House ultimately dispensed with his services, such as those might have been without security clearance. He was in fact escorted off the premises, so suddenly anxious was the White House to distance itself from him.
His claim that he worked in the Hungarian Ministry of Defence in the early 1990s is likewise fraudulent and not repeated in his LinkedIn profile where the years 1992-1995, coinciding with the Bosnian Civil War, are not documented.
Like Trump, he lies about everything, even his education. In an interview with the The Daily Telegraph he claimed he was educated by ‘Benedictine nuns’ in an effort to distance himself from the sado-pedophilia of his infamous school where he spent all 14 years of his education http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/03/31/exclusive-powerful-briton-america-really-like-donald-trumps/ His middle school headmaster, Andrew Soper who fled to Kosovo to escape justice, was recently put away for 18 years https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2017/dec/21/andrew-soper-priest-sexually-abused-boys-st-benedicts-school-jailed-18-years
It was Rupert Murdoch’s The Times newspaper which first reported the rampant abuse at Gorka’s school https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/the-monks-who-stole-my-childhood-wfk5rhk9q Still unresolved is the question of who facilitated Soper’s soujorn in Kosovo under the guise of researching a mystical strand of Islam in the Balkans http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4966932/Catholic-priest-74-withdrew-182-000-Vatican-bank.html Only emergency hospital treatment revealed his true identity. Who was shielding him?
That Gorka suffers from the pituitary function disorder called acromegaly (‘gigantism’) is plainly manifest in his disproportionately sized head and hands, as well as in his slow, ponderous, often slurred, speech, and the lantern jaw he now conceals with a beard. Photos of him as a youth, such as this he himself originally tweeted https://twitter.com/MarinkaVanDam/status/942397624484859904, show that the condition had manifested itself by his early 20s and that his hip carriage was likewise affected. The condition would certainly have excluded him from regular military service. Yet he has frequently bragged about his combat experience. So where precisely did he gain that?
Gorka’s antecedents, especially those of the missing 1992-1995 years, would bear proper investigation. It’s time he made a credible statement about them. Of special concern is that during all the time he was at the White House there was a warrant out in Hungary for his arrest on gun-related charges. Telephone enquiries by journalists about this were dismissed by him, citing the inevitable mantra “fake news”. But the warrant was real. How far back did it go and what was it related to? The hording of guns and ammunition? And why was the warrant reportedly withdrawn early this year (2018)? Was that by any chance anything to do with the dissolution at the end of last year (December 2017) of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) investigating war crimes in the former Yugoslavia?
