Texas Republican Representative Ronny Jackson seems to be taking a page from his former boss' playbook.
A member of the White House medical staff and eventually a member of the Trump administration, Jackson is alleging election interference well in advance of the 2022 November midterms.
On Monday night, Jackson went to social media to post a rant against Gmail.
Jackson claimed his campaign emails are going directly into supporters' spam folders.
Gmail is actively suppressing emails from Republicans from hitting your inbox. Straight to SPAM! This is ELECTION INTERFERENCE! Big Tech is out of CONTROL!!— Ronny Jackson (@Ronny Jackson) 1652132195
But respondents felt it was possible Jackson and his supporters might not know how spam filters work.
When I call students' parents they send calls from the school straight to voicemail. STRAIGHT TO VOICEMAIL! BIG PHONE IS OUT OF CONTROL.https://twitter.com/RonnyJacksonTX/status/1523778988392562696?s=20&t=osw_92RJzzxo5mfrUhZ9Ig\u00a0\u2026— S. Rich (@S. Rich) 1652187233
When you spam people, you end up in the spam folder? That's a feature, not a bug.https://twitter.com/RonnyJacksonTX/status/1523778988392562696\u00a0\u2026— Morten \u00d8verbye (@Morten \u00d8verbye) 1652165460
Funny, I just tweeted this two days ago.https://twitter.com/dane_collins/status/1522210744888020996?s=20&t=75WAH3ZHJCV8oL7mI0HEYg\u00a0\u2026— Dane Clark Collins (@Dane Clark Collins) 1652181934
Individual email users are able to adjust their own spam filters.

Should Jackson's supporters wish to receive his campaign emails, they could set their account to accept all messages from his official account.
Such setting changes will accept emails from designated senders even if they're full of all caps or excessive exclamation points—two things used in Jackson's tweet and almost always flagged as spam by email filters.
Jackson found little support or sympathy on Twitter.
Oh no, it\u2019s happening, go look in your spam box if you have Gmail and it is probably full of Trump trying to solicit money. It\u2019s kind of hilarious, my spam folder is all Trump, Because it is spam.— Horny & Vaccinated ANTIFA Secretary (@Horny & Vaccinated ANTIFA Secretary) 1652147552
I'm on a lot of Democratic fundraiser lists because I've donated a few times, but sometimes they end up in my spam folder if I don't read or respond to them.\n\nIt's just how spam folders function.\n\nBek is right. Gmail is not actively suppressing Republican email.— Scott Deese (@Scott Deese) 1652190735
Someone should create a Ronnie Jackson parody account in which all they do is copy and paste his tweets into their tweets.— Charles "Double Boosted" Herold (@Charles "Double Boosted" Herold) 1652154702

Well, he IS the guy who said orange Hitler weighed 239 pounds! So, there\u2019s that.pic.twitter.com/YXZl8P9FHs— \ud83c\udf0a \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6 K.

Jackson first gained notoriety as the U.S. Navy physician in the White House Medical Unit who made dubious claims about the health and weight of former Republican President Donald Trump in January 2018.
In March 2018, Trump tried to make Jackson the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, but allegations of misconduct, misuse of alcohol on duty and mismanagement lead Jackson to withdraw his name from consideration less than a month later.
Instead of VA Secretary, Trump created a new title and position—Assistant to the President and Chief Medical Advisor—and placed Jackson in the role leading to further speculation on the validity of Jackson's health report on Trump. In December 2019, Jackson retired from the Navy and almost immediately filed to run for the Republican nomination for a House seat for Texas in 2020.
In 2021, the Department of Defense Inspector General briefed Congress on their investigation into the 2018 allegations against Jackson. The DoDIG found Jackson had inappropriate interactions with subordinates and improper use of alcohol while on duty. Jackson denied the investigation's findings.
Jackson is up for reelection in the 2022 midterms.
