A 21-year-old social media manager received a major promotion within President Donald Trump’s administration despite raising concerns over his alleged “white nationalist rhetoric,” according to a new report.

The New York Times reported on Thursday that 21-year-old Peyton Rollins was brought over to the Department of Homeland Security this month to help run their social media. This follows Rollins making a splash with his social media work over at the Department of Labor, work that caused concern among a number of colleagues.

The Times noted that the Labor Department’s social media has exploded in attention since Rollins took over. It currently carries nearly 650,000 followers on X at the time of this writing.

Rollins, however, has been accused by colleagues of pushing Nazi-style imagery and engaging in “white nationalist rhetoric” with his posts.

Helen Luryi served on the Labor Department’s Women’s Bureau until leaving in April, and she argued there was a clear shakeup in the type of content posted to social media.

“We’re used to seeing posts about things like apprenticeships, benefits and unions,” she said. “Then all of a sudden, we get white-nationalist rhetoric.”
