Sebastian Gorka delivered a blistering attack of Jake Tapper during a anxious change on CNN Wednesday night, and it was wonderful. Gorka, who now serves in the Trump presidency as deputy assistant to the leader and senior producer for cybersecurity, left Tapper floundering in the midst of his strong rebukes.  ,

The issue at hand was a report from The Washington Post last month claiming that current cuts to U. S. foreign aid were jeopardizing terrorism work in Africa and the Middle East, especially with initiatives designed to combat al-Shabab, contain the spread of al-Qaeda, and secure Islamic State captives.  ,
” Are those reductions also in location”? Tapper asked. ” Are you concerned about them at all”?
Gorka didn’t dare to ignore its reliability, going straight for the throat.
” Is that the same Washington Post that propagated the ‘ Russia, Russia ‘ collaboration ruse for the last eight times”? Gorka asked.
Tapper, flustered by the email, tried to deflect.
” Well, regardless of the ‘ Russia, Russia’—” he started to say, but Gorka was having none of it.
” No, no regardless”, Gorka shot up and refused to allow Tapper off the hook. “You’re quoting The Washington Post to me, which is as effective as posting for me or quoting to me any other pillar of the fake news industrial complex” . ,
Gorka wasn’t done, and he continued to hammer Tapper’s rely on the major media:” I definitely couldn’t care less what The Washington Post or the New York Times says, particularly when it’s private government authorities. If it’s real, put your name to it. If it’s not, opened up”.

At this point, Tapper’s try to tilt back to the issue of foreign help reduces fell flat. He asked whether the reductions had impacted terrorism priorities—an absurd idea for certain — and Gorka explained that cuts to international aid were targeting the “ideological disease” of U. S. support and government agencies under the Biden administration, no counterterrorism.  ,
Gorka’s directness and confidence in defending the Trump administration’s policies stood in stark contrast to Tapper’s flustered, fumbling responses. He pointed out that, as the senior director of counterterrorism, he could personally vouch for the success of the administration’s efforts.  ,
” Let me assure you, Jake Tapper, that nothing we have done in the last 53 days has undermined the counterterrorism capabilities of our allies or friends”, he declared.  ,
He then provided a powerful rebuttal that left no room for doubt:” On the contrary, just as we have unleashed the hounds of hell to kill jihadis, we have made our partners much, much more capable of doing the job they need to do”.

In a single exchange, Gorka not only humiliated Tapper for asking such a stupid question but also delivered a resounding defense of the Trump administration’s counterterrorism policies. He expertly cut through the media’s bias, demanded accountability from both the press and the current administration, and left Tapper no choice but to stammer and regroup.  ,
The exchange was a masterclass in both rhetoric and substance, as Gorka completely ripped Tapper a new one. The only consolation for Tapper is that this was on CNN, and how many people are still watching CNN?
