What they do inside their borders is fine by me. When they extend that coverage beyond the state borders their legal authority ends.

The problem with that is a great many functions perceived to be strictly state funded are actually funded in whole or in part by Federal money, yours and mine.

Vice-presidents historically are provided Secret Service protection for six months after leaving office. But Biden signed an XO to extend protection beyond six months to July 2026, Harris aides had asked for the extension. The detail would have ended last month.

Newsom would need to sign off on CHP protection, would not confirm the arrangement. “The safety of our public officials should never be subject to erratic, vindictive political impulses.”

Eat a bag of dicks, asshole

The problem with that is also the reduced safety of out of state drivers on our hiways cuz of the reduction of man power diverted to serve as a private citizens body guard detail.

Biden added extra security for his entourage while Democrats pushed to punish Trump.

Gee, real generous of you.

What about the folk who will die....

.. cuz DOA and his East Beijing ( formerly known as Sacramento) comrades took our HIWAY PATROL off our hiways who would have otherwise been taking illegal aliens with CDL’s, and the other unlicensed uninsured illegals and criminals who cause accidents ,

and kill not just Californians but all the states drivers ..

Let them pay too ?

with their lives ?

Brother please, get your hate on Californians , fine,

but have some compassion for the out of state hiway drivers .

My question is why do ANY of the former presidents still have SS protection? Especially obama.

“Aides to Harris had asked Biden for the extension. ”

They did no such thing. They told the autopen lady to do it. Dollars to donuts there is no paper trail that ever reached the Tater-in-Chief.

The press is forgetting that Biden denied RFK Jr SS protection for his entire campaign.

Until she opened her mouth, which is inevitable.

These details are to insulate them from getting arrested for their normal conduct. Think of the "But I'm the A.G." lady who is drunk and disorderly. It's also so they have a full time driver, which prevents the DUI problems. Think, Paul Pelosi, behind the wheel.

The security details are to protect us from them, and them from themselves.

“ Why does she need security in the first place?”

Really. Who would want to hurt her? Dims, especially AWFULS and beta males, love her, and conservatives want to keep her for political and entertainment reasons. I suppose there are some loony trantifa-types that could find some twisted reason to off her, or at least break into her home and beat off, but they could target anyone.

The truth is that nobody cares about her anymore.

She probably hasn't walked through a supermarket in forty years.

perhaps that’ll make her more likely to stay confined in california, thought i can’t imagine why anyone would think an idiot like her would be a high profile target, anyway ...
