President Donald Trump has ended the government security detail for Dr. Anthony Fauci, his chief medical adviser during much of the 2020 coronavirus pandemic.
Fauci stepped down from his role as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases in 2022 but had still been receiving taxpayer-funded federal security because of threats on his life.Dr. Fauci became a household name during the COVID-19 pandemic, often appearing with President Trump at briefings, increasingly clashing with him over policy.
President Trump also recently 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 ex-CIA Director Mike Pompeo and former national security advisor John Bolton.Bolton had previously received threats from Iran. When asked if he’d feel partially responsible for any harm to Fauci or Bolton, the president said no.
