DONALD Trump has sensationally ended Hunter Biden’s Secret Service protection “effective immediately”.
The President said it was “ridiculous” Joe Biden’s son still had 18 agents protecting him – all of whom are paid for by the taxpayer.



According to Trump on Truth Social, Hunter Biden has been under the protection of the Secret Service, with the expenses covered by American taxpayers.
“Please be advised that, effective immediately, Hunter Biden will no longer receive Secret Service protection.”
He added that Joe Biden‘s daughter, Ashley, who has 13 agents for protection, will also “taken off the list”.
Trump’s announcement came just hours after a reporter asked him about Hunter’s Secret Service detail.
The President said he would look into it, as he had not been aware of the situation.
It’s important to note that under federal law, former presidents and their spouses are entitled to lifelong Secret Service protection, but this does not extend to their children over the age of 16 once they are no longer in office.
Both Trump and Biden extended the details for their children for six months before leaving office.
The President slammed Hunter for being on holiday in South Africa whilst using taxpayer money for his protection.
He said: “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.
He added that effective immediately, Hunter Biden will no longer be entitled to Secret Service protection.
Trump continued: “Likewise, Ashley Biden who has 13 agents will be taken off the list.”
It comes after the President halted Biden’s access to daily intelligence briefings as revenge for Biden doing the same four years ago.
Trump also made headlines on Truth Social by including his famous catchphrase “YOU’RE FIRED” and suggesting that Biden should no longer have access to classified information.
