U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday said he has pulled federal security protection for former top U.S. health official Dr. Anthony Fauci.
Dr. Anthony Fauci is the latest ex-aide to lose government protection, reflecting Trump's early moves against perceived adversaries.
Dr. Anthony Fauci has been stripped of his federal security detail despite ongoing threats to his life over his role in the COVID-19 pandemic.
Dr. Facui, one of the nation’s top health officials for decades, received death threats during the COVID-19 pandemic. He'll now hire his own security.
Trump said he would not feel responsible if anything happened to Fauci as a result of his federal security clearances being cut.
Dr. Fauci faced regular threats to his life and has received federal protection for years, but his government security detail was abruptly ended this week.
Critics say Fauci has tried to cover up the origins of COVID-19, including U.S. funding for coronavirus research in Wuhan.
The heads of the Jan. 6 committee say they're grateful for the decision by President Joe Biden to pardon them “not for breaking the law but for upholding it.”
President Biden's pardon protects Anthony Fauci, a longtime target of MAGA critics, from charges related to the contentious debate over origins of Covid or other issues.
Trump harshly criticized Federal Emergency Management Agency because of its hurricane response in North Carolina and said he would sign an executive order "overhauliong" or even abolishing the agency.
Former President Donald Trump has removed federal security protection for Dr. Anthony Fauci and several other former officials. Despite threats following his leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic, Fauci will now fund his own security.
