The US Secret Service spent $11 million of taxpayer money on Hunter Biden’s security detail, including on luxury travel, hotels, golf carts, and real estate.
Hunter received a robust security detail while RFK Jr. and others were denied Secret Service protection.
“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,” CASA Director James Fitzpatrick told The Center Square in an exclusive interview, according to Just The News. “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.”
Just The News reported:
The Biden administration spent more than $10 million over three years on a security detail and related expenses for former First Son Hunter Biden after denying similar protections to other high-profile political figures, documents obtained by the Center to Advance Security in America and shared exclusively with The Center Square show.
The security detail for former President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter, cost nearly $11 million, including on travel, real estate and expensive hotels, according to documents obtained through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request CASA filed.
The documents from Jan. 1, 2022, to Dec. 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 Biden’s Secret Service detail.
Nearly all costs – 95% – were incurred in California, where Hunter Biden often resided, but also were incurred on expensive trips to the Virgin Islands, Nantucket, and Santa Ynez, California.
Hunter Biden lived a life of luxury in Malibu, California, on the taxpayers’ dime.
Biden’s son, who has done nothing but grift off of his father’s name his entire life, lived in a $20,000-per-month mansion with ocean views in Malibu, and Secret Service agents lived in a $30,000-per-month luxury mansion next to Hunter.
The rental property has “gorgeous ocean views,” ABC News reported.
President Trump pulled Hunter Biden’s Secret Service protection while the former First Son was vacationing in South Africa.

In March, President Trump announced he stripped US Secret Service protection from Joe Biden’s daughter, Ashley Biden, and son, Hunter Biden.
Trump said “effective immediately” Hunter Biden will no longer receive Secret Service protection.
“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,” Trump said on Truth Social.
