To some extent you're right. Yhis is not a current event. To some, it's old news.

I have no problem with his choice of profession (public or private), but it DOES dredge up a very sordid history working as a male prostitute for the Republican party in the old days while under the influence of one very nasty Larry King of the Lincoln Savings and Loan debacle. This included a sex ring using young boys (Gannon/Guckert was supposedly one of them), taken off the streets by chloroform and abducted and made to serve the sick and wealthy through pedophilia and satanic abuse. The cases and court settlements are still available. Not a healthy story, but one worth looking into, just to see how the "other side" lives...........and prospers.
And how it affects politics at some of the very highest levels.
Scandalous? Oh yes.
Google away.
