US President Donald Trump on Monday revoked secret service protection for former president Joe Biden's children Hunter and Ashley.
“Hunter Biden has had secret service protection for an extended period of time, all paid for by the US taxpayer,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social.
“Please be advised that, effective immediately, Hunter Biden will no longer receive secret service protection. Likewise, Ashley Biden, who has 13 agents, will be taken off the list,” Trump added.
Donald Trump is upset that Hunter Biden, Joe Biden’s son is vacationing in, “of all places, South Africa.” 🤣😂🤣

He really just used us as an excuse to do what he wanted to do anyway, removing Hunter’s secret service detail. pic.twitter.com/IFBnhL68Q1
Trump's announcement came hours after a reporter asked Trump about Hunter's secret service detail. The president said he had not been aware of it but would look into it.
Hunter was this week spotted on holiday in South Africa.
