"SNIP............

WASHINGTON — Donald Trump’s campaign paid Breitbart News national security editor Sebastian Gorka $8,000 for “policy consulting” last year, according to Federal Election Commission filings.

The filings show that the payment to Gorka was made in October.

Gorka is a professor at Marine Corps University and is the chairman of Threat Knowledge Group, a national security consulting group. He appears frequently as a counterterrorism expert on Fox News.

Gorka has been repeatedly identified on Breitbart as Breitbart’s national security editor, with an appearance on Monday on Breitbart’s satellite radio show being the most recent example. Gorka has also written frequently for the site, though not since December.

true, legitimate and valued opposition to a so called liberal media.

First, there is not now nor has there every been a politically liberal media in America, and to say there is then oppose it with liars and thieves, is simply hysterical.
