Defense Department revokes security detail for former Secretary Mark Esper

Former Defense Secretary Mark Esper had his security detail revoked by the Defense Department on Tuesday night. This follows a trend where several officials from President Trump's administration have lost their government-provided security. Esper, who has faced threats from Iran, is the latest in a series of removals. Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and national security adviser John Bolton also recently lost their security details. The Defense Department previously removed security for former Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Mark Milley. This action is part of a broader review of security measures for former officials from the Trump administration.
