WASHINGTON — President Trump revoked Hunter and Ashley Biden’s Secret Service security detail on Monday after the former first son, surrounded by more than a dozen agents, was spotted on an “ultra-luxurious” getaway in South Africa when he was due for a deposition in court.

“Hunter Biden has had Secret Service protection for an extended period of time, all paid for by the United States Taxpayer,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “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,” the president added. “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,” Trump announced.

Hunter’s younger half-sister, Ashley Biden, and her taxpayer-funded security detail also drew the ire of the president.

" Likewise, Ashley Biden who has 13 agents will be taken off the list,” Trump said.

Too bad. So sad.

They stole enough money to pay for anything they want including a lifetime supply of cocaine and their own security.

Oh jeeze! Who’s going to buy his guns for him now? Who’s going to wash his Crack pipe? Who’s going to fetch him little girls? Who’s going to mule his cocaine? Who’s going to ditch his rental cars?

If Hunter wants guards to protect him, he can go to prison.

“””This is bad precedent”””

The Trump sons and daughters didn’t get any SS protection after the 2020 election. Biden thought he was the king and could give it to his adult children because they are special.

I don’t know if Barron has SS protection, but a lot of comments online say that before Biden left office, he extended it to Barron. This will be a argument from the left until it’s nailed down.

President Trump ought to make Navy's mother the Deadbeat Czar. Her job will be
to run an operation tracking down deadbeat dads and bringing them to prosecution.

How is Hunter going to keep the riff-raff away from him?

Actually, I’m somewhat surprised that we the public were given exact numbers of how many agents were protecting certain individuals.

If someone asked ‘How many SS Agents is Person X using?”
I would have expected the generic response of:
“TSSDNCOP !!”
Meaning; The Secret Service does not comment on procedure!”
I guess many of the formalities were dropped after the Obamas.

Following the law is bad precedent?
