Former National Security Adviser John Bolton was stripped of his Secret Service detail on the same day that President Donald Trump stripped him of his security clearance, according to several reports.
CNN reported that Bolton had confirmed that “within hours” of Trump taking office, the president terminated the Secret Service detail that had been assigned to Bolton.
Several sources also informed CBS News that the decision to terminate Bolton’s Secret Service detail had been made “in the past 24 hours.”
In a statement on X, Bolton expressed that he was “disappointed but not surprised that President Trump” had terminated his Secret Service detail. Bolton added that despite his “criticisms” of former President Joe Biden’s national security policies, Biden “made the decision to extend” Bolton’s Secret Service detail protection.
“I am disappointed but not surprised that President Trump has decided to terminate the protection previously provided by the United States Secret Service,” Bolton wrote. “Notwithstanding my criticisms of President Biden’s national-security policies, he nonetheless made the decision to extend that protection to me in 2021.”
“The Justice Department filed criminal charges against an Iranian Revolutionary Guard official in 2022 for attempting to hire a hit man to target me,” Bolton added. “That threat remains today, as also demonstrated by the recent arrest of someone trying to arrange for President Trump’s own assassination. The American people can judge for themselves which President made the right call.”

John, your value as an “influencer” of foreign policy as dropped to zero. You’re safe.
Why does John Bolton still have a Secret Service detail?
Why did John Bolton ever have a Secret Service detail?
I didn’t know about the SS detail. This is new.
I didn’t either BUT since we’re on the subject I’d like to see ALL former Presidents and their families lose their Secret Service and any security info they have. They’ve gotten rich off the taxpayers and they can pay for their own and I hope we see that!!
“Why did John Bolton ever have a Secret Service detail?”
Who else has a detail that shouldn’t have one?
SS detail is for the president and family, former president and current VP and family. Even the former VP only has SS protection for six months after they are out of office.
The Speaker of the House and the Senate Majority Leader have no SS protection at all.
So why does a man who has not been in government service for at least 15 years have SS protection?
Any ex president & spouse get SS forever
What a crybaby.
Exactly.
All those state secrets he released in his book.
