Trump Ends Fauci’s Security Detail, Declares No Responsibility for Potential Harm
President Trump ended Dr. Anthony Fauci’s federal security detail, following the termination of protection for several other former Trump aides who have become critics. This decision comes despite ongoing threats against Fauci and others, with Trump stating he feels no responsibility for their safety. Trump’s justification cited the individuals’ financial abilities to secure private protection, a stance at odds with the Biden administration’s continuation of security for these individuals due to credible threats. This action follows similar revocations of security for former officials like Mike Pompeo and John Bolton.
