Former Trump official John Smith recently spoke out about the termination of his security detail, a move that he believes is politically motivated. In an exclusive interview with The Hunt, Smith revealed that he was informed of the decision to remove his security detail shortly after speaking out against the administration’s policies.

Smith, who served in the Trump administration for over two years, expressed his concern that the termination of his security detail puts him and his family at risk. “I have received numerous threats in the past, and having a security detail was crucial for my safety and peace of mind,” Smith stated.

When asked about the reasoning behind the decision, Smith believes that it is retaliation for his vocal opposition to certain policies of the Trump administration. “I have always been honest and transparent about my views, and I believe that this is an attempt to silence me,” Smith said.

Despite the termination of his security detail, Smith remains steadfast in his commitment to speaking out against what he believes is unjust and harmful policies. “I will not be silenced, and I will continue to fight for what is right,” Smith asserted.

The Hunt reached out to the Trump administration for comment on Smith’s claims, but has not received a response at the time of publication. Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story.
