WH social media director uses official acct to accuse Walter Shaub of "threatening" administration

[highplainsdem]

This is what former Office of Government Ethics director Walter Shaub tweeted a few days ago that upset Dan Scavino this morning:

Shaub was retweeting a warning from Norm Eisen to admin officials that they'd be violating the Hatch Act if they used their official accounts to retweet a post from Donald Trump telling people to vote for Roy Moore.

Scavino's silly response this morning:

Obama’s head of Office of Government Ethics continues to taunt and threaten Trump Administration via Twitter by filing OSC complaints to the office he once oversaw. #CLOWN🤡

Aw, poor little snowflake Scavino...


Shaub's response:

I don’t know whether to be startled by a govt official using an official account to call a citizen names, amused he thinks OGE & OSC are the same agency, flattered I’m in the head of a guy OSC told to stop violating the Hatch Act, or worried by his contempt for the rule of law.
