Washington, April 10 (RHC)-- Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt is facing increasing scrutiny, after the Associated Press revealed the agency has spent nearly $3 million on Pruitt’s security detail, including 18 full-time agents.
The EPA and President Trump have claimed that Pruitt has faced death threats. But an investigative reporter with BuzzFeed filed a Freedom of Information Act request with the EPA seeking all records of death threats against Pruitt. The EPA’s response was that there are zero records of death threats against Pruitt.
