Former Trump adviser Sebastian Gorka engaged in a loud verbal altercation with CNN's Jim Acosta Thursday, according to the Daily Caller's Virginia Kruta. According to multiple witnesses, Acosta made a flippant remark to Gorka - who just launched his SALEM Radio Network show "America First," telling him that media-related meetings with the president were for "real journalists" only. Acosta walked in then, according to Gorka, touched his arm and said “Why are you here? This place is for journalists only,” then walked away. He also noted that the incident occurred in front of fellow SALEM host Mike Gallagher and Sirius Patriot XM host David Webb — and explained that, although they had been in the same building on several occasions, he and Acosta had never officially met prior to this incident. “Abilio ‘Jim’ Acosta, you are a dickhead,” Gorka fired back at Acosta. -Daily Caller "For the next 40 minutes, he hid in the back and didn’t come out as I was right by the exit, until I went to the Oval Office," Gorka told the Caller, adding "Jim Acosta is actually worse than anyone imagined. He’s definitely not a journalist, and he is clearly a cowering coward. I just feel sorry for anyone who is in the White House pool with him and know he is hated by all the actual journalists in the White House." Wow!

Sirius Patriot XM host David Webb confirmed the incident, saying "I was right next to Sebastian and he reported accurately what Acosta said. Acosta was serious and condescending."
