Former national security adviser John Bolton recently expressed his disappointment after President Donald Trump revoked his security detail, stating that it hindered his ability to openly oppose the president. Bolton, who left the Trump administration in November 2019, had been receiving US Secret Service protection due to threats from Iran. Trump initially terminated this protection upon Bolton's departure, but President Joe Biden reinstated it upon taking office.
In response to Trump's decision, Bolton remarked that while he had to ensure his safety, the message was clear. He also addressed concerns about whether Trump's actions implied a desire for harm to come to him, emphasizing the importance of protecting individuals from threats posed by rogue states like Iran.
