Former White House aide Sebastian Gorka said Saturday he will return to Breitbart News, reuniting him with longtime ally and ex-White House chief strategist Steve Bannon.
Gorka left his post on Friday as a national security adviser under President Donald Trump — he claimed he resigned, which the White House disputed. While Gorka said his role with Breitbart News hasn’t yet been defined, he will be returning to the site where he once served as a national security editor.
“I will be working with you, with Steve, with the Breitbart crew,” Gorka said during an interview with Breitbart Washington editor Matt Boyle on SiriusXM.
Gorka said that while he had no plans to supplant the existing national security editor, he had grand visions for the vertical that included championing Trump’s national security prerogatives during the 2016 campaign. The former White House aide criticized Trump’s recent speech on his plans to increase troop deployment in Afghanistan, casting it as a failure of his current national security team.
“I realized after the president’s speech this week on Afghanistan that he wasn’t been well served,” Gorka said.

Some people seem surprised that Gorka, fired from the WH, is returning to Breitbart. They also think he actually left in the 1st place.

Lovely. Breitbart is trash anyway. Might as well run it into the ground.
