Ashley Biden, Hunter's sister, will have her Secret Service protection revoked as well. Trump noted that 13 agents were assigned to her security detail.
"We are aware of the President’s decision to terminate protection for Hunter and Ashley Biden," the Secret Service told Fox News Digital. "The Secret Service will comply and is actively working with the protective details and the White House to ensure compliance as soon as possible."
Fox News Digital has reached out to Hunter Biden's lawyers.

In his post, Trump said Biden was vacationing in South Africa, which has come under intense pressure from the administration over its land exploration law that allows the government to make land seizures without compensation and its support for the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas and Iran,
Trump said the seizures discriminate against White land owners.
"Because of this, South Africa has been taken off our list of Countries receiving Economic and Financial Assistance," Trump wrote.
Last week, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said South Africa’s ambassador to the United States "is no longer welcome" in the country. In a Friday webinar, Ebrahim Rasool talked of the Trump administration’s crackdowns on diversity and equity programs and immigration.

Rubio accused Ebrahim Rasool of being a "race-baiting politician" who hates Trump. In a post on X, Rubio declared the South African diplomat "persona non grata."
