Trump Revokes Kamala Harris’s Secret Service Protection
Under federal law, vice presidents receive six months of security after leaving office—period expired July 2025. Before departing, Biden had tucked in an extra year for Harris. A new memo from Trump cancels that extension effective September 1, 2025, stripping her of 24/7 agent coverage, home protection, and threat monitoring.The Times of India+8The Washington Post+8Indiatimes+8
