Emails show Trump appointees undermined Facebook CEO Zuckerberg’s Glacier National Park visit

The Park Service was not allowed to post anything about the tour on its Facebook page or social media accounts.

The Trump administration was far less keen on Zuckerberg — who has been increasingly vocal in his criticism of the president — and apparently balked at giving him the red-carpet treatment that national parks often roll out for lawmakers, potential donors and dignitaries.

"This seems like a lot of government resources to dedicate to a celebrity’s personal PR tour," Interior press secretary Heather Swift wrote in an email to a Park Service spokesman three days before the scheduled tour.
