    WASHINGTON (AP) � President Donald Trump has revoked former Vice President Kamala Harris� Secret Service protection that otherwise would have ended
    next summer, senior Trump administration officials said Friday.

    Former vice presidents typically get federal government protection for six months after leaving office, while ex-presidents do so for life. But then- President Joe Biden quietly signed a directive, at Harris� request, that
    had extended protection for her beyond the traditional six months,
    according to another person familiar with the matter. The people insisted
    on anonymity to discuss a matter not made public.

    Trump, a Republican, defeated Harris, a Democrat, in the presidential
    election last year.

    His move to drop Harris� Secret Service protection comes as the former
    vice president, who became the Democratic nominee last summer after a
    chaotic series of events that led to Biden dropping out of the contest, is about to embark on a book tour for her memoir, titled �107 Days.� The tour
    has 15 stops, including visits abroad to London and Toronto. The book,
    which refers to the historically short length of her presidential
    campaign, will be released Sept. 23, and the tour begins the following
    day.

    A recent threat intelligence assessment the Secret Service conducts on
    those it protects, such as Harris, found no red flags or credible evidence
    of a threat to the former vice president, said a White House official who
    also insisted on anonymity to discuss internal deliberations. The administration found no reason Harris� protection should go beyond the
    standard six-month period for former vice presidents, the official said.

    While I'd LIKE to say she doesn't deserve extra protection,
    reality says different alas.

    I'm sure the USSS does NOT like 'protecting' this pinhead
    pol ... but, for SOME - foreign and domestic - she's STILL a
    politically worthy TARGET.

    Nuke her = cause BIG BIG Damaging Political Thing. The
    Islamists know it. The Russians/Chinese know it. ANTIFA
    knows it ... great False Flag target.

    SO ... maybe better to somewhat REDUCE her USSS squad
    for the next five or ten years. But completely pulling
    them may cause more trouble than not.

    Trump likes to go all-or-nothing, esp with 'foes'. It's
    his personality. However sometimes that's NOT the best
    approach to real world stuff.

    Excellent. I thought this had been done MONTHS ago.

    As said elsewhere - there's good AND bad in this.

    If some rad group takes out K it'll still be a
    HUGE political stink.
