Trump revokes Harris’s Secret Service protection
by Alex Gangitan
President Trump revoked the Secret Service protection provided to former Vice President Harris on Thursday, a spokesperson for Harris confirmed.
The protection for Harris, who ran against Trump in the 2024 presidential election, was canceled through a letter titled “Memorandum for the Secretary of Homeland Security” that Trump dated for Thursday, CNN reported.
She received six months of Secret Service protection after the Biden administration ended in January, but that was extended for another year through a directive former President Biden signed before leaving office, according to CNN. Only former presidents receive Secret Service protection for life.
Harris is set to embark next month on a book tour across 15 cities in the U.S., United Kingdom and Canada, for her memoir titled “107 Days.” The tour will start on Sept. 24 in New York City.
Trump announced in March that two of Biden’s children — Hunter Biden and Ashley Biden — would no longer receive protection from the Secret Service.

Trump previously revoked the protective details for former Defense Secretary Mark Esper, former national security adviser John Bolton, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Dr. Anthony Fauci and former envoy to Iran Brian Hook.
The White House and Secret Service did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The Hill.
