John Bolton, the former national security adviser for President Trump, announced on Tuesday that he is no longer under the protection of the Secret Service. This comes after the current president revoked his security clearance due to revelations in a book he published in 2020.

In a tweet, the 76-year-old Bolton expressed his disappointment but not surprise at Trump’s decision to end his Secret Service protection.

Bolton, who has long been a supporter of changing the leadership in Iran, was granted Secret Service protection by President Joe Biden in 2021 following threats from Iran against a former US ambassador to the United Nations.

“Notwithstanding my criticisms of President Biden’s national-security policies, he nonetheless made the decision to extend that protection to me in 2021. The Justice Department filed criminal charges against an Iranian Revolutionary Guard official in 2022 for attempting to hire a hit man to target me,” Bolton wrote.

“That threat remains today, as also demonstrated by the recent arrest of someone trying to arrange for President Trump’s own assassination. The American people can judge for themselves which President made the right call.”

It’s unclear whether Trump directly ordered the termination of Bolton’s detail. However, presidents are able to designate Secret Service protectees at will.

The Justice Department said in 2022 that an Iranian agent “attempted to pay individuals in the United States $300,000” to whack Bolton, “likely in retaliation” for the January 2020 US airstrike that killed Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commander Qassem Soleimani.

Soleimani’s death occurred almost four months after Trump fired Bolton, whose book was published in June 2020, outraging Trump and prompting the Justice Department to sue Bolton and open a grand jury review of whether he improperly disclosed sensitive information.

Both actions were dropped by Biden nominees.

Trump yanked Bolton’s security clearance Monday, the first day of his second term, as well as clearances held by 49 living former intelligence agency officials who signed an October 2020 letter suggesting that the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop were Russian disinformation intended to discredit his father.

Bolton’s book “was rife with sensitive information drawn from his time in government. The memoir’s reckless treatment of sensitive information undermined the ability of future presidents to request and obtain candid advice on matters of national security from their staff,” Trump’s Monday order said.

“Publication also created a grave risk that classified material was publicly exposed.”

The Secret Service did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
