Trump Cancels $2 Million Security Details for Pompeo, Bolton, and Hook Despite Iran Threats
Jan 23, 2025, 03:32 PM
President Donald Trump has revoked the security protection for his former Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo; former special envoy on Iran, Brian Hook; and earlier in the week, for former National Security Advisor John Bolton, despite ongoing threats against them from Iran due to actions taken during his previous administration. The New York Times reported that Trump pulled the security detail guarding Pompeo and Hook, who have faced direct and serious threats from the Islamic Republic of Iran. The Biden administration had previously warned that all three men faced ongoing threats from Iran. The security protection for Pompeo and Hook had been costing the State Department over $2 million per month for 24-hour security.
