the national enquirer and radar chief among them, have put an emphasis on helping mr. trump and hurting his rivals, including endorsing his presidential bid. joining me now is ken vogel, one of the authors of the new york times piece. good to see you. welcome. hey katy. what is the deal with this. scott pruett has new controversy every day. why is this one potentially a big deal as well. this guy, the head of his security detail, was instrumental in clearing the way for some of the spending on travel and other sort of perks of office that have come under scrutiny from both congress and the epa inspector general. there were objections at the agency from senior staff members who thought that this type of spending was improper and unnecessary. and this guy, pratta was the guy who both signed off on it and who tried to tamp down on opposition from within the agency. he was successful on that front.
