Trump Revokes Secret Service Protection for Kamala Harris

The move ends a Biden-approved extension beyond the standard six-month post-vice-presidential coverage.

Overview

  • The White House confirmed the termination of Harris’s extended protection, which Le Parisien reported takes effect on September 1.
  • Her customary six-month Secret Service coverage ended on July 21 after Joe Biden had authorized an extension before leaving office.
  • Harris’s team publicly thanked the United States Secret Service for its professionalism and dedication.
  • Harris plans a fall tour to promote her memoir, 107 Days, scheduled for U.S. release on September 23, increasing her public exposure.
  • California officials criticized the decision, and reporting indicates she could turn to local law enforcement or private security as similar protections were removed from figures including Mike Pompeo, Anthony Fauci, John Bolton and Biden’s adult children.
