Trump's pick to head Office of Personnel Management spread Dem 'satanic' lies, 'party of Islam'

and 'gender-bending'.

(CNN)The Trump administration announced this week the nomination of a former conservative commentator with a history of inflammatory and conspiratorial tweets to be the head of the Office of Personnel Management.

John Gibbs, the nominee, is currently the acting assistant secretary for community planning and development at the Department of Housing and Urban Development, where he has worked for three years.

A CNN KFile review in 2018 of archived versions of Gibbs' Twitter feed showed he had spread a false conspiracy theory that claimed Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign chairman took part in a satanic ritual. Gibbs also defended an anti-Semitic Twitter user who had been banned from the platform, and made derogatory comments about Islam and the Democratic Party.
...
In a February 2016 tweet, Gibbs said the Democratic Party had become the party of "Islam, gender-bending, anti-police, 'u racist!' "

He is, all in all, a Massive Piece of Shit. And Trump wants to give him power over all government personnel.

The only thing that appears to be missing from his past behavior is domestic violence and sexual assault - if they were on his resume, he would have been elevated to the position much sooner.
