Gavin Smith, one of the gov’t officials in this story, goes by @iamgavinjames and locked his account after the piece published. But before he did, we found dozens of recent tweets insulting Trump’s rivals, endorsing Trump’s allies and mocking the press. politico.com/story/2018/06/…
Here’s Smith repeatedly weighing in on South Carolina politics as a federal employee, sometimes during the workday — raising questions of Hatch Act violations.
Here’s Smith — who identifies himself as a deputy communications director at HHS — publicly attacking Republicans who have criticized Trump.
While a government employee, Smith has parroted Trump attacks on Democrats and sometimes gone further, including calling for Obama to be locked up.
