Life After Hate de-rad
katherine gorka
:{Gorka was named to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) transition team by Donald Trump in November 2016. It was noted that she had previously complained extensively that the DHS trained its agents that Islam is a "religion of peace", which she claimed to be false.[5] In May 2017, Gorka was named an adviser to the DHS's policy office.[2]
She then ended funding from the Countering Violent Extremism Task Force (CVE) to Life After Hate, a group that works to de-radicalize white supremacists, as well as to the Muslim Public Affairs Council.[9] Watchdog groups requested records during her time as a senior adviser at DHS, with the Democracy Forward group suing to get documents.[10]}:
It was later revealed in emails that Gorka had wanted, apparently without success, to redirect the focus of the CVE against antifa during her time in the DHS.[6]
:{She became press secretary of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) in June 2019, but left her position in August in order to spend more time with her family.[11][12] Gorka did not appear frequently in public during her time at the CBP, leading the Democracy Forward group to sue the DHS to find out "what Gorka is doing" there.[13]
