President Donald Trump has signed a new national counter-terrorism strategy that focuses in part on the “neutralization” of hemispheric threats and incapacitating cartel operations, top White House adviser Sebastian Gorka said on Wednesday.
Gorka, the White House counter-terrorism director, told reporters that Trump signed the document on Tuesday “driven by the principle that America is our homeland and must be protected.”
