In a post on Truth Social on Monday, President Donald Trump said he was revoking Secret Service protection for Hunter and Ashley Biden, former President Joe Biden’s children.
Trump posted on Truth Social, “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. Because of this, South Africa has been taken off our list of Countries receiving Economic and Financial Assistance. 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.”
This is a developing news story and will be updated as more information is available.
