President Donald Trump has ended the taxpayer-funded security detail for Dr. Anthony Fauci, a move that has sparked significant attention and debate. Dr. Fauci, a leading health

official and public figure during the COVID-19 pandemic, had received security protection since 2020 following threats tied to his high-profile role. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) had initially requested the security measure due to heightened concerns for his safety, as reported by Fox News.

This decision follows Trump’s recent actions to revoke security clearances from 51 intelligence officials. These officials had publicly claimed that Hunter Biden’s laptop bore “all the classic earmarks of

a Russian information operation.” Trump’s administration cited accountability and the alleged misuse of their roles as reasons for this decision, with information being shared with key figures such as former CIA Director Mike Pompeo and former National Security Advisor John Bolton.
