WASHINGTON(National Times)- A US Secret Service agent assigned to J. D. Vance is under investigation for alleged leaks, a spokesman said on Thursday, after a media report that the vice president wanted to fly his son to a golf lesson on a military helicopter.

The probe comes after broadcaster MSNOW reported last week that Vance’s security detail had become increasingly “fed up” with personal travel requests by the vice president and his family.

“A member of the vice presidential protective division is the subject of an administrative investigation, and potential criminal inquiry, involving allegations of compromising operational and information security,” Secret Service communications chief Anthony Guglielmi said in a statement.

“While we will not comment on the specifics of this matter, one principle is unequivocal: any conduct that potentially threatens the safety of a protectee will not be tolerated.”

According to MSNOW, Vance’s requests included flying him and his son to a secure golf course at Joint Base Andrews, near Washington, on board Marine Two, the call-sign of the helicopter that carries the vice president.

The flight ended up being cancelled because of thunderstorms.
