President Donald Trump has reportedly ended the security detail for Dr. Anthony Fauci, according to a source familiar with the decision. The protection, which was previously provided and funded by the National Institutes of Health, was removed on Thursday night.
Fauci, who has faced ongoing threats due to his prominent role during the Covid-19 pandemic, has now arranged for private security at his own expense. This move comes as part of Trump’s broader efforts to strip security details from former officials who served under his administration. Similar actions have been taken against former National Security Adviser John Bolton and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
