The volunteer group was also told to prioritize leads from "VIPs," including political allies, conservative journalists and associates of Trump, outlets reported. A Fox News spokeswoman told the Post that Kilmeade and Pirro said they were unaware that they were prioritized. Two senior administration officials disputed parts of the whistleblower complaint to the Post. The officials told the Post they hadn't heard of leads being given "VIP" treatment. Rear Adm. John Polowczyk, the head of the supply-chain task force, told the Times that the volunteers had served an important function.
