Part 3. Exercise
Comment: One of Donald Trump's foreign policy advisers, Joseph Schmitz, doubted the extent of the Holocaust and bragged about firing "the Jews" at the Defense Department.

"In his final days, he allegedly lectured on the details of concentration camps and how the ovens were too small to kill 6 million Jews," Meyer wrote.

Joe Schmitz left the George W. Bush administration in 2005 to take the Blackwater job, a move that came after Schmitz was reportedly informed he was the focus of a congressional inquiry into whether he blocked two criminal investigations of Bush officials the year before.

Schmitz is the son of the late John G. Schmitz, the former ultraconservative congressman from Orange County, California.

As a sitting congressman, John Schmitz refused to comment after he wrote the foreword and endorsed the publication of a book that contained widely-condemned anti-Semitic propaganda and was written by a longtime member of the John Birch society.
