Los Angeles police officers ‘pulled from working cases’ to provide security for Kamala Harris
NY Post ^ | 9/03/25 | Victor Nava

Kamala Harris’ new security detail is made up of Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) officers, who have been reassigned to guard the former vice president after President Trump withdrew her Secret Service protection, according to a report.

As many as 14 of LAPD’s elite Metro Division officers have been “pulled from working cases” and “crime suppression efforts” to provide security for Harris, local outlet FOX 11 reported on Wednesday.

The outlet recorded an unmarked LAPD SUV with at least two plainclothes officers sitting in the driveway outside Harris’ home in the upscale Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles, where the failed 2024 Democratic presidential nominee has been living with her husband, Doug Emhoff, since leaving the White House.

Trump signed an order last week stripping Harris of Secret Service detail, effective Sept. 1.

Former vice presidents traditionally receive six months of protection following their terms — which meant Harris would have lost her detail July 21 – but former President Joe Biden quietly extended Secret Service security for the former VP – for a full year – shortly before leaving office on Jan. 20.

It’s unclear why Biden extended Secret Service protection for Harris.

But local leaders slammed Trump for taking away Harris’s Secret Service detail.

“This is another act of revenge following a long list of political retaliation in the form of firings, the revoking of security clearances and more,” Democratic LA Mayor Karen Bass told Fox 11 in a statement.

“This puts the former Vice President in danger and I look forward to working with the Governor to make sure Vice President Harris is safe in Los Angeles,” she added.

“This puts the former Vice President in danger”

No, being in Los Angeles does that.

Under what legal authority is private citizen Kamala Harris entitled to full-time (expensive) protection by the Los Angeles Police Department?

She needs to be saved from herself and without that protection, she might just walk into an open manhole...WHOOSH!

“open manhole...”

Get with the program. This is California. It’s a personhole. It may even self-identify as a solid surface. Did you even ask?!

Oh...”/S”

How does Obamala Harris rate better protection than the average citizen?

Quoth Orwell:

So this protection is for how long? The rest of her life like former Presidents? It doesn’t say so I guess it’s open ended.

You’re actually not that far off. The woke city of Berkeley, California has changed the name to “maintenance hole”.

I suppose saying “manhole” in Berkeley would be a hate crime.

She’s completely powerless and harmless. She’s just another Jane Doe. No need for security except of course if they want to manufacture a need?

It was likely the anon autopen that wrote this extension.

Ask Prince Harry.

Bet the taxpayers are paying for him, too.

Agree. She likes the security with the big black cars because it affirms her delusion that she is so important

If Metro LAPD is busy protecting Harris, that means security around l.a. “grifter-officials” will be less. Opportunity to find out how really stupid and drunk she might be on a day to day basis. Need a Metro cop to retire and talk.
