US President Donald Trump said Friday that he has revoked security protection for Anthony Fauci, his former Covid advisor who has received death threats over his handling of the pandemic.
"You can't have a security detail for the rest of your life because you worked for government," Trump told reporters in North Carolina, where he was on a visit to inspect flood damage.
Trump withdrew Secret Service protection earlier this week from his former national security advisor John Bolton.
The New York Times said the president had also revoked government security provided to his former secretary of state, Mike Pompeo, and a top Pompeo aide, Brian Hook.
Asked by a reporter whether he would feel partially responsible if anything happened to Fauci or Bolton, Trump said: "No."
"Certainly I would not take responsibility," he said.
"They all made a lot of money," Trump said. "They can hire their own security."
"I can give them some good numbers of very good security people," the president said. "Fauci made a lot of money."

The democrats effectively blocked Trump from Secret Service protection on July 13. They openly called for taking away all his Secret Service protection.
So they need to shut up about this.
Trump destroyed this nonsense when asked about it
Trump said something like this.
just because your were once in the Government does not mean you should have taxpayer funded protection forever. These people made a great deal of money while in Government, they can afford to pay for their own security. If they need recommendation I have a couple of numbers they can call
Please, stop! This is entirely too much winning.
I do not now nor have I ever advocated violence, especially when the recipient caused the death of millions of people.
Poor Fauci... what if a foreign government who lost countless numbers of their citizens to the virus, treatments, and vaccines that Fauci helped fund and developed decided to kidnap and put him on trial. That would be a terrible shame! /s
I didn’t even know fauci has SS protection until today.
When the lib media wants to, they really can black out news they don’t want people to know about.....but now that Trump has revoked it......NOW it’s a story.
Fauci’s government pension will be at least $350,000 per year (no, that’s not a typo). So I’m guessing he can afford a bit of security on his own.
When RFK was running for POTUS, Biden denied him protection by SS. He finally got it, but only because Trump made a stink about the denial.
“Fauci, who led the country’s fight against the Covid pandemic during Trump’s first term, has become a hated figure for many on the right and has received numerous death threats.”
Death threats? I’m throwing the bullshit flag on that one.
I’m sick of these claims of death threats with absolutely NO proof.
He is THE highest paid federal employee......that is absolutely obscene.
That little midget has an ego big as all outdoors and the eay he flatters himself is sickening......it’s high time he was taken down a peg or two.
“They reported without evidence that Fauci receives death threats.” Let’s use their writing technique.
If only the victims of Fauci could have had protection from his crimes...
And he does that tent thing with his fingers. I really hate that. Just for that he needs to lose protection.
Remove his security clearance
and freeze his pension .
investigate his work activities
and ccp spying .
kill the pension.
Hahaha. That is such a boss statement. I love it.
Fauci is retired. He has no political value. He has plenty of money. He shouldn’t get government funded protection.
i suspect he helped release Covid with ccp to get Trump .
enemy ccp agent
> I’m sick of these claims of death threats with absolutely NO proof. <
I would not be surprised if the Deep State manufactures a few fake death threats against Fauci, just to embarrass Trump.
Those folks are pretty good at the false flag business.
Anyway, Fauci was well-paid and is quite wealthy ($12 million +). He can take care of himself.

he should have said..
“Trust me on this one.. The Secret Service protection isn’t all that great.. They got me shot! I’m doing him a favor”
TOO MUCH WINNING!
