Former Vice President Kamala Harris lost her Secret Service protection Thursday after President Donald Trump withdrew the privilege. An Oval Office directive instructs the agency to discontinue all security procedures beyond those required by law, effective September 1, Newsweekreports.(snip)Harris originally had her protection extended by Biden from beyond the traditional six months previously afforded VP’s after they leave office. CNN notes Biden’s order to extend was secret – not made public until now – signed by him shortly before leaving office, according to multiple people familiar with the undisclosed arrangement.

Her husband, the Nanny Knocker Upper, forgot her birthday in October 2024, so he's getting his, right Kamel? But you have to read the book to be privy to that juicy little tidbit.

I agree, OP.
A bigger question is who wrote Kamala book?
Any suggestions for the chapter titles? (Other than 1, 2, 3, 4)

She's only losing the Biden-secretly-added protection, not the normal protection that exists under the law.
So, now she'll be protected just like every other ex-vice president.

Kamala is only allowed 6 months of protection by law. Biden added a year on the way out the door with a letter memorandum, which is not legal, and Trump threw that letter memorandum in the trash can.

Never say "VP Harris" and "strips" in the same sentence. I cannot bear the thought.

Just as she is headed off on her book tour.
An irrelevant object of disinterest she may be the safest person in America.

More likely rectifying another autopen artifact, than setting up Harris. Would she even need it now, anyway?

The extension was signed by President Autopen, no doubt.
Back to the traditional six months......and there will be wailing in the Enemedia.

Hey. Specifically, she is stripped of secret service "beyond those required by law,"
No super extra 'we'll get some chardonnay for you' agents.

Why does she need it? The lefty loons love her, America’s enemies hope that she’ll be President someday, and we want to keep her around for the laughs.

Lifetime protection for former presidents is largely to protect the secret intelligence they’ve seen in the course of their terms. Harris doesn’t have intelligence of any kind. She should be thankful that PDT allowed her 2 extra months at taxpayer expense. Now she can pay for her own. Not that she actually needs it.

#9, I hope he kept that Biden memo so he can ensure it's public record and not secret any longer.
Need to illustrate an example of the secret administration during the Biden term.

Harris, just like that pompous cowardly guy from Indiana, does not need SS protection because nobody has any further interest in either of them.

Kamala Who?
Why are we paying a single minute of protection for some random unknown person?

I am reminded about a stand up routine by Denis Leary.
JFK was shot.
RFK was shot.
An assassination looked at Ted Kennedy and said "Why bother?"

This story is another prime example of how the news item headline often totally distorts truth - not just here, but very typically across the board. Many people just skim the headlines to get their news, explaining how so many get it wrong. The headline reader would infer that Trump revoked Kamala's security, when actually it legally just expired and Biden's secret extension order was cancelled.

Let's think back a moment...wasn't President Trump's detail cut back on the day he was shot in Pennsylvania?...seems I remember that Jill had all the extra resources at her little soiree...so President Trump would not be covered as he should have been.....and I'm still thinking this oversight was on purpose because President Trump was going to be put down....and in comes God's Hand....

For anyone who has spent time in DC, having a Secret Service detail became more of a status symbol than actual protection. It use to be that Cabinet Secretaries didn't have security, then their department provided them with security and I would imagine now, that some cabinet members have USSS protection. Of course, Kristi Noem had it and she still got robbed at some restaurant.

Presidents usually get lifetime security details after leaving office. Biden cancelled President Trump’s after six months. Vice-presidents usually get security details for six months. Trump cancelled Kamala’s lifetime detail after seven months.
