WASHINGTON -- The National Park Service employee's Twitter campaign against President Trump is spreading.

A day after three climate-related tweets sent out by Badlands National Park were deleted, other park accounts have sent out messages that appear to defy President Donald J. Trump.

Redwoods National Park in Humbolt County sent out this tweet about climate change:

On Friday, the Department of the Interior briefly suspended the park service's accounts after it retweeted photos about turnout at the president's inauguration.

The department claims it made the decision out of concern that the account was hacked.
