Trump terminates John Bolton’s security detail within hours of taking office​


"...Within hours of taking office, President Donald Trump terminated the Secret Service detail that was assigned to his former national security adviser John Bolton, Bolton confirmed to CNN on Tuesday.

Bolton, who left the Trump White House in November 2019, has required ongoing US Secret Service protection because of threats against him from Iran. Trump initially terminated his protection after he left his administration in the first term, but President Joe Biden restored it once he took office.

“I am disappointed but not surprised that President Trump has made this decision,” Bolton said in a statement to CNN. “Notwithstanding my criticisms of President Biden’s national-security policies, he nonetheless made the decision to once again extend Secret Service protection to me in 2021.” ..."

“…
Two of the people said that at least 15experienced career staffers across several divisions were removed from their positions and reassigned, a sign that the new president and his aides plan to carry out their promises to dramatically reshape the agency, including to focus more on immigration enforcement.

As a way to skirt legal protections afforded to career staffers, many of the officials were transferred to other positions inside Justice, where they would likely have less influence on the department’s big decisions, the people said. The officials will have to decide whether to stay in their new assignment or leave the agency.

… Among the people being removed from that division is deputy assistant attorney general George Toscas, who has served in the national security division since 2006, according to three people familiar with the matter.
