group of House Democrats on Friday introduced legislation to strip former President Donald Trump of his Secret Service protection should he be convicted in one of the myriad criminal cases against him.
Trump is currently on trial in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's case over allegedly falsifying business records. Trump has pleaded not guilty and contends that the case is part of broader political witch hunt against him. He also faces two separate federal indictments from special counsel Jack Smith and a fourth from Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
"It is regrettable that it has come to this, but this previously unthought-of scenario could become our reality. Therefore, it is necessary for us to be prepared and update the law so the American people can be assured that protective status does not translate into special treatment —and that those who are sentenced to prison will indeed serve the time required of them," Mississippi Democratic Rep. Bennie Thompson said, according to the Washington Times.
Dubbed the "Denying Infinite Security and Government Resources Allocated toward Convicted and Extremely Dishonorable (DISGRACED) Former Protectees Act," the measure would apply to anyone with Secret Service protection convicted of a crime punishable by more than a year in prison.

After they've had President Trump killed, they'll be coming after us.
Pure vindictiveness. The collective and mindless hate and fear for this one man is something I have never seen in all my years.
Whatever the topic, the cutesy acronym titles of legislation show the lack of seriousness of lawmakers. This one is distinctly odious. How I hate these bastards
Me too.
this is flat out sheer hatred. I believe many if not all leftists are demonically possessed and demonically influenced.
These are the people the Founders knew would arise. That’s why the wrote the 2nd.
Astonishing. So blatant.
Trump and MAGA prevented Cankles the Unprosecuted Felon from packing the federal courts with American Khymer Rouge stooge-"judges".
That's why they're so angry.
Just when you think the Democrats couldn’t go any lower, they do! They want to destroy any chance of uniting? So be it!
the hate is positively Demonic in nature- Practically the whole unsaved liberal world seethes with anger because of Trump and Conservatives-
Democrats = Murder, Inc.
Good point. I have been interested in the demonic element for some time now. I am convinced it is there on the Left.
The same for BJ?
Amen.
Yes.
They already crossed the line for me but for many other more patient people I think this will cause them to give up on being charitable to the Left.
I stopped trying to be a good little boy. This may influence others to agree with me.
