Overview
- The Secret Service confirmed that Alejandro Mayorkas, former DHS Secretary under President Biden, lost his protective detail per an executive memorandum from President Trump.
- This revocation follows Trump's decision earlier this month to revoke Secret Service protection for Hunter and Ashley Biden, citing the size of their security details as excessive.
- The Secret Service was notified of Mayorkas' revocation last Friday, with protection officially ending on Monday, March 24, 2025.
- Trump has previously removed Secret Service protection for other Biden-era officials, including Anthony Fauci, Mike Pompeo, and John Bolton.
- Under federal law, Secret Service protection for officials and their families is discretionary, with extensions often granted by outgoing presidents.
