BUSTED: Trump's golf caddy turned White House social media director caught spreading fake Irma news

Dan Scavino, Jr. -- the White House's director of social media -- got called out twice on Sunday for spreading disinformation about Hurricane Irma on Twitter.

First he showed an image of what he claimed was Biscayne Bay, but which was actually the inlet to the Miami River.

Then he tweeted a video of what he claimed was a flooded Miami International Airport. The Miami International Airport, however, begged to differ.

Trump first hired Scavino as a golf caddy when Scavino was a teen. Since then, Trump has found positions for the younger man in his organization, a longtime pattern with Trump, who values loyalty in his subordinates more than any other quality.

Scavino -- who was reprimanded by the Office of the U.S. Special Counsel for using his federal position and influence in a petty political squabble -- has since deleted the tweets, but has been roundly scorned on social media for not checking his facts.

Scavino's error even made a Washington Post roundup of Irma hoaxes.

"Dan Scavino, the White House’s director of social media, has been re-posting videos and photos he appears to have pulled from social media showing the destruction in Miami all day," said the Post. "This one isn’t from Irma, or Miami."
