The U.
S. Secret Service reportedly spent a staggering $11 million of taxpayers' funds on providing security for Hunter Biden, the son of former President Joe Biden.
This expenditure included luxury travel, high-end accommodations, golf carts, and real estate. This revelation has sparked controversy, given that other notable figures, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr., were denied Secret Service protection.
According to Gateway Pundit, the Center to Advance Security in America (CASA) Director James Fitzpatrick disclosed this information in an exclusive interview with The Center Square. Fitzpatrick stated, Due to reports that Hunter Biden was playing a senior role in advising his father within the White House in 2024, CASA filed a FOIA request for information related to the taxpayer resources being spent to protect him.
He further revealed, What we found is that while the Secret Service denied protection to [then presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.], and failed to properly protect President Trump resulting in two assassination attempts, Hunter Biden was enjoying a robust detail wherever he traveled, including trips to Nantucket, South Africa, and the Virgin Islands.
The documents obtained by CASA through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request revealed that the Biden administration spent over $10 million in three years on Hunter Biden's security detail and related expenses. This expenditure occurred despite the denial of similar protections to other high-profile political figures.
The security detail for Hunter Biden cost nearly $11 million, including travel, real estate, and expensive hotels.
The documents, covering the period from January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2024, indicate that the Biden administration spent nearly $9.3 million on hotels, $1.1 million on air and rail travel, and nearly $600,000 on car transportation and rentals for Hunter Bidens Secret Service detail.
Almost all costs 95% were incurred in California, where Hunter Biden often resided. However, expenses were also incurred on lavish trips to the Virgin Islands, Nantucket, and Santa Ynez, California.
Hunter Biden, who has been criticized for capitalizing on his father's name, lived a luxurious life in a $20,000-per-month mansion with ocean views in Malibu, California, all at the taxpayers' expense. The Secret Service agents assigned to him lived in a neighboring $30,000-per-month luxury mansion.
In a surprising turn of events, President Trump announced in March that he had stripped U.S. Secret Service protection from Joe Bidens daughter, Ashley Biden, and son, Hunter Biden. Trump declared, effective immediately Hunter Biden will no longer receive Secret Service protection.
He stated on Truth Social, Hunter Biden has had Secret Service protection for an extended period of time, all paid for by the United States Taxpayer. There are as many as 18 people on this Detail, which is ridiculous! He is currently vacationing in, of all places, South Africa, where the Human Rights of people has been strenuously questioned."
"Because of this, South Africa has been taken off our list of Countries receiving Economic and Financial Assistance. Please be advised that, effective immediately, Hunter Biden will no longer receive Secret Service protection. Likewise, Ashley Biden who has 13 agents will be taken off the list.
This revelation raises questions about the allocation of taxpayer resources and the apparent preferential treatment given to Hunter Biden. It also underscores the need for transparency and accountability in the use of public funds, particularly when it comes to the provision of security details for high-profile individuals.
