    How is he allowed to remove the secret service protection from the former vice president?

    What?

      The former VP actually only gets 6 months of protection by default. Beyond that it needs to be actively extended, which Trump didn’t do.

        my understanding was that biden did extend it for a further year. trump actively cancelled that.

        it wasnt just him letting it lapse, it was a move of spite

        To be more accurate, he actively cancelled an extension granted by a previous executive order.

      There was an order in the previous administration to extend protection for extra time. This administration just cancelled the extension.
