Trump Pulls the Plug on Fauci’s Federal Protection
In a move that’s sending shockwaves through Washington, former President Donald Trump has revoked the federal security detail for Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former top U.S. health official. This protection, initially provided by the National Institutes of Health during the pandemic, was withdrawn Thursday night, leaving Fauci to fend for himself.
Trump, never one to mince words, justified the decision with his trademark straightforwardness. “I think when you work for the government, at some point your security detail comes off, and you know, you can’t have them forever,” Trump told a reporter at a hurricane response briefing in Asheville, NC. It’s hard to argue with that logic, folks. After all, we can’t have every government pencil-pusher strutting around with a Secret Service entourage for life, can we?
Fauci’s Fortune: A Silver Lining?
But don’t worry too much about poor Dr. Fauci. According to Trump, the good doctor isn’t exactly hurting for cash. “They can hire their own security too. … I can give them some good numbers of very good security people,” Trump added. “Fauci made a lot of money. They all did.”
It’s worth noting that Fauci isn’t the only one feeling the heat. Trump has also pulled the plug on security details for other former officials who’ve criticized him, including John Bolton and Mike Pompeo. It seems the Trump administration’s alumni newsletter might be getting a bit thin these days.
Hope he also took away Dr. (Mengele) #fauci security detail too

The Fauci Fallout: What’s Next?
As the dust settles on this latest political upheaval, one thing is clear: Dr. Fauci’s journey from respected medical professional to polarizing public figure is far from over. With his federal protection gone and the fallout from the preemptive pardon hanging over his head, Fauci finds himself in uncharted territory.
Will he take Trump up on his offer of private security recommendations? Will Biden’s pardon protect him from future investigations, or will it only fuel the fire of his critics? One thing’s for certain: in the world of Washington politics, the only constant is change. And for Dr. Fauci, that change just got a whole lot more personal.
