Senior Trump Adviser Thinks Muslims By And Large Want To Subjugate Non-Muslims

A senior national security official in the White House has said he believes Muslims are dedicated to establishing Sharia law in Western countries, where he apparently thinks they want to “subjugate and humiliate” non-Muslims.

Frank Wuco ― a former radio host and veteran Naval Intelligence officer ― was hired on Jan. 20 as President Donald Trump’s senior White House adviser for the Department of Homeland Security, according to a recent report from ProPublica.

Now the liberal media watchdog group Media Matters has compiled a report documenting Wuco’s history of deeply concerning rhetoric regarding Muslims and Islam, a religion he views as an inherent threat to Western civilization.

“Prior to his time in the White House, Frank Wuco spewed anti-Muslim attacks as a pundit on Fox News and host of his own radio show,” Media Matters spokeswoman Laura Keiter told The Huffington Post, adding that it “is incredibly dangerous for someone like Wuco who espouses extremist views to have a hand in policymaking ― and the ear of the president.”

Wonkette points out this is an example of the political commissars Trump is installing to keep departments on the official paranoid conspiracy theory line.
