President Trump revoked Kamala Harris's extended Secret Service protection, ending a year-long extension granted by President Biden. This protection, exceeding the standard six months for former vice presidents, was canceled via a memorandum. Harris's upcoming book tour increases her public profile and security concerns. Her aides worry about the loss of threat intelligence and personal protection, which would be costly to replace privately. California Governor Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Bass expressed outrage and concern over the decision, highlighting the potential safety risks.
