Report: Trump WH hiring Breitbart writer Julia Hahn

A Breitbart staff writer is going to join the Trump White House, Politico reported Sunday night.

Julia Hahn will be a special assistant to the president, according to the report, and is expected to work primarily under chief strategist and former Breitbart executive Steve Bannon.

The report is based on “briefed on the move” and Politico said it’s “not clear whether the hire has been entirely finalized.”

In May 2016, Hanh penned an article for Breitbart headlined, “Paul Ryan Says U.S. Must Admit Muslim Migrants, Sends Kids to Private School that Screens Them Out.”

One of her main Breitbart assignments seemed to be to attack Rubio.

One person posting on Twitter said her nickname was "Ilsa, she-wolf of the SS' but I haven't found any confirmation of that. OTOH, considering how childish Breitbart is, it wouldn't surprise me.

She was a producer for Laura Ingraham before she went to Breitbart.

I saw some suggestions that she was linked to Stormfront before she worked for Ingraham, but I haven't been able to find anything to confirm that.
