Jason Greenblatt Live Tweets Israel Trip – And Doesn’t Win Fans

President Trump isn’t the only person within his administration sending out an unfiltered stream of messages on Twitter. Middle East adviser Jason Greenblatt seems to be following his lead, live-tweeting updates from a trip to Israel and the Palestinian territories this week.

Greenblatt’s social media presence didn’t win praise from everyone – among them the West Bank settlement leader David Ha’ivri. “Stop by for a couple of days, meet with some names. Then go home and say that you are working on it,” the former leader of a settlement council in the West Bank told Ha’aretz.

Others critiqued his choice of kosher food options.
