Trump Taps 2 More from Breitbart to Top Administration Positions
----------------------------------------------------------------

Trump has tapped two more members of the far right-wing outlet Breitbart
Media to join his administration. Breitbart's national security editor
Sebastian Gorka is likely to join Trump's National Security Council.
Immigration reporter Julia Hahn has been named special assistant to the
president. Trump's chief strategist, Stephen Bannon, is the former head
of Breitbart, which frequently publishes racist, sexist, anti-immigrant
and xenophobic news. Trump has also tapped John Gore, a lawyer who has
defended gerrymandering and extreme voter ID laws, to serve as one of
the Department of Justice's top senior civil rights officials.
