This reckless move puts Harris in danger during a volatile political climate when she faces ongoing threats as the first Black woman vice president. Stripping protection right before her high-profile book tour is a vindictive act of political retaliation that prioritizes spite over safety. Public officials deserve consistent security regardless of political differences.
