Trump says he ended Dr. Anthony Fauci’s security detail
President Donald Trump explains the decision to terminate Dr. Anthony Fauci’s security detail during a press conference.
President Donald Trump confirmed on Friday that he has terminated the security detail provided to Dr. Anthony Fauci at the taxpayer’s expense.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) requested security for Fauci in 2020 to protect him from threats he received as the top health official and public spokesperson during the COVID-19 pandemic. But that detail was pulled on Thursday night, CNN first reported.
Trump was asked about the decision Friday while visiting Asheville, North Carolina, to tour areas impacted by Hurricane Helene.
“We took some off other people, too, but you can’t have a security detail for the rest of your life because you work for government,” he added.
Trump earlier revoked the security clearances of 51 intelligence officials who had wrongly claimed that Hunter Biden’s laptop had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation,” as well as the details provided to former national security advisor John Bolton and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
Asked if he would feel partially responsible if something were to happen to Fauci or Bolton, Trump said he would not.
“No. You know, they all made a lot of money. They can hire their own security,” Trump said, adding that he knows several good security firms and “can give them some good numbers.”
“Certainly I would not take responsibility,” he said.
Former President Joe Biden offered a preemptive pardon to Fauci on his way out of office to shield him from Trump’s retribution. Though Trump had initially followed Fauci’s recommendations at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, he began to criticize Fauci as the government’s pandemic response and recommendations proved to be unpopular.
Fauci served as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases from 1984 to 2022 and was the chief medical advisor to the president from 2021 to 2022. Trump awarded presidential commendations to Fauci and other members of Operation Warp Speed in 2021 for their work to quickly develop coronavirus vaccines.

The Most Revolutionary Act 
Fauci can be provided with 24-hour round the clock security detail in prison, and he won’t have to pay a cent for it since it will still be paid by us taxpayers. And what is his scared ass worried about since he claims those Covid bioweapons were safe and effective? Lie much??!!!!! Lock his lying, corrupt, criminal ass up!!!!

Brilliant idea, Shelby. You need to contact him and suggest he turn himself in.

I think me and ICE need to go get him and deport him. I would not mind working for ICE these days.

I can’t help but look at parallels of the collapse of Rome, Shelby. Rome didn’t collapse because barbarians invaded it. What happened is that their borders became really porous and streams of Visigoths, Ostrogoths and Vandals poured in to the extent that the government could no longer provide security or basic services to anyone.
