Carl Higbie Biography
Carl Higbie is one of the most popular and richest Soldier who was born on April 23, 1983 in New York City, United States. Higbie was born in Greenwich on 23 April 1983. After graduating from Greenwich High School, he attended Sacred Heart University and then went to college. He dropped out to serve in the military while troops were being deployed to Iraq.
Higbie is the author of a self-published book entitled Battle on the Home Front. A Navy SEAL’s mission to save the American Dream in 2012. His security clearance was then downgraded to “top secret”. Before the end of his term, he signed out of the SEALs with an honorable discharge. Two months later, the Navy reduced his discharge to “general”. Post Hill Press published a second book in 2016, entitled Enemies Foreign and Domestic: A Story of a SEAL.
In 2014, Higbie announced that he was running to be the Republican Party nominee to challenge Democrat Jim Himes in Connecticut’s 4th congressional district, declaring himself to not be “bound by the same conformist rules that most Republicans are bound by.” At the time, Higbie was working as a personal trainer at Equinox in Greenwich, CT. The other Republican candidates were former State Senator Dan Debicella and State Representative John Shaban. Higbie described himself as a social conservative with “moral oppositions to abortions and same-sex marriage, but my legislative position is live and let live,” and stated that he would vote to repeal the Affordable Care Act. On economic issues, Higbie supported “a balanced budget amendment and an across-the-board personal income tax rate of 10 percent, with a maximum annual deduction of $50,000,” and he favored eliminating corporate taxes to attract overseas businesses. Higbie had difficulty with fund raising during his candidacy, and sought to force a primary election if he were not endorsed as the candidate. Debicella won the nomination with support from 195 of the 210 delegates, and contested the election against Himes, who won with 53.7% of the vote.
On the same day as defending Bannon, in an interview with Megyn Kelly of Fox News, Higbie cited the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II and the associated Supreme Court decision in Korematsu v. United States as providing legal justification for Trump’s campaign promise of a registry for Muslim Americans. Higbie repeated his comments on CNN to Erin Burnett the following day. Kelly replied that Higbie “knows better” than to make such suggestions as they scare people. Kelly met Higbie’s further assertion that he was only noting “there was precedent for it” with the declaration: “You can’t be citing Japanese internment camps for anything the President-elect is going to do.” Trump’s transition team later issued a statement to the Huffington Post that denied that Trump supported a Muslim registry, though he had made comments supporting such an idea in 2015.
Higbie joined the United States Navy in 2005 and was made a SEAL. He eventually reached the rank of Petty officer First Class (E-6 Grade) with the rating of Special Warfare Operator, First Class. Two times, he was deployed to Iraq for Operation Iraqi Freedom. He served under Presidents Bush (once each).

Carlton Milo Higbie IV, a pro-Donald Trump operative from America, was born April 23, 1983. Higbie was the director of advocacy at America First Policies, which promotes Donald Trump’s policy agenda. Higbie was appointed chief of external affairs for Corporation for National and Community Service in August 2017. However, he resigned in January 2018, after being exposed for making racist, sexist and anti-Muslim comments and remarks about veterans suffering from PTSD. He was previously a spokesperson for Great America PAC. This organization supported Trump’s candidacy for the presidency and helped his transition information office. Higbie also became well-known for promoting the false Birther conspiracy theory about Barack Obama.
Higbie, a retired Major General Paul Eaton and Chris Cuomo spoke out against the Obama administration’s use of drone strikes and air power. He also supported Trump’s promise of “boots on ground” to solve the problems in Iraq. Higbie also criticized Eaton, the U.S. Army’s Chief of Infantry and Commanding General of Coalition Military Assistance Training Team (2003-2004), stating “[Eaton’s] leadership here today is not conducive for winning a war.”
George Takei, who was detained in one of the World War II internment camps, described Higbie’s comments as “dangerous” and went on to say that “[r]egistration of any group of people, and certainly registration of Muslims, is a prelude to internment.” Higbie’s comments attracted media criticism, and Representative Judy Chu (D–CA), the first Chinese American woman elected to the U.S. Congress, declared that “[a]ny proposal to force American Muslims to register with the federal government, and to use Japanese imprisonment during World War II as precedent, is abhorrent and has no place in our society. These ideas are based on tactics of fear, division, and hate that we must condemn.” Constitutional lawyer Bruce Fein addressed Higbie’s suggestion that Korematsu could be used to support a Muslim registry, describing the case as having “joined Dred Scott as an odious and discredited artifact of popular bigotry” even though it has never been overturned. Harvard University’s Noah Feldman concurred, declaring that “Korematsu’s uniquely bad legal status means it’s not precedent even though it hasn’t been overturned.”

At its conference in Washington, D.C., in November 2016, the white supremacist National Policy Institute celebrated Trump’s victory as “the first step towards identity politics in the United States,” and the audience responded to the end of Richard Spencer’s speech – “Hail Trump! Hail our people! Hail victory!” – by standing and making the Nazi salute. Higbie participated in a CNN panel discussion with Angela Rye to discuss the conference, and described the attendees as “morons” and “idiots” who do not represent the Republican Party as a whole. The discussion became heated, with Rye calling the Republicans the “party of oppression” and describing Higbie’s knowledge of history as “ass backwards” after Higbie described the Republicans as “the party of Martin Luther King.”
