Trump pulls Secret Service protection for Hunter and Ashley Biden
Trump announced Monday on Truth Social that Hunter and Ashley Biden will no longer receive Secret Service protection.
"Hunter Biden has had Secret Service protection for an extended period of time, all paid for by the United States Taxpayer. There are as many as 18 people on this Detail, which is ridiculous! He is currently vacationing in, of all places, South Africa, where the Human Rights of people has been strenuously questioned," Trump wrote on his social media platform.
“Please be advised that, effective immediately, Hunter Biden will no longer receive Secret Service protection. Likewise, Ashley Biden who has 13 agents will be taken off the list," Trump said.

The President was asked earlier Monday who was paying for Hunter Biden’s Secret Service protection and he said he would look into the matter later in the day.
It's not unusual for the children of an outgoing president to receive an extension on their protection as a courtesy extended to the outgoing president and his family. Trump’s four adult children and their two spouses received Secret Service protection for an additional six months after Trump's first term.
