Trump Strips Secret Service Protection from Hunter and Ashley Biden: What’s Next?

In a striking move, President Trump has revoked Secret Service protection for Hunter and Ashley Biden, “effective immediately.” Trump criticized the $140,000 taxpayer expense, highlighting the 18 agents assigned to Hunter and 13 to Ashley. Secret Service communications chief Anthony Guglielmi confirmed the agency’s compliance with the decision. Typically, a president’s family receives protection indefinitely after their term, while Biden extended this for his adult children via executive order. Trump’s approach mirrors his past actions, having secured extra protection for his children post-presidency. The debate around security costs and political implications continues, reflecting the ongoing complexity of familial protection within the Secret Service.
