Dan Grilo, a former Hillary Clinton staffer tonight bashed the wife of fallen Navy SEAL William “Ryan” Owens. Owens was killed on January 29th during a counterterrorism military operation in Yemen.

After receiving an thunderous ovation tonight on Capitol Hill, Owens’ widow Carryn, for her husband’s bravery and service, Grillo ripped into her on Twitter, calling her an idiot.

Within minutes of his tweet, backlash ensued. Minutes later, Grilo made his Twitter account private, hiding from the internet, then locked his account.
