Ivanka Trump’s Morocco Getaway: Secret Service Hotel Bill Revealed
Federal records show two hotel contracts totaling $93,000 for Secret Service advance teams ahead of Ivanka Trump’s private birthday trip.
- U.S. taxpayers covered at least $100,000 in security costs for Ivanka Trump's birthday trip to Marrakech, Morocco, as federal records show $93,000 was spent on Secret Service hotel bookings.
- Although Ivanka no longer holds a government role, federal law grants Secret Service protection to the president's adult children; a family source defended the spending by citing alleged Iranian threats.
- Records show the agency paid $59,543 for rooms at the Sofitel Marrakech and $33,457 at La Mamounia, costs that mirror previous high-priced security details including a 2017 Canada ski trip totaling $59,654.
- The trip occurred days before midterm elections where Republicans suffered sweeping losses, and watchdogs have called on the Trump family to reimburse taxpayers for personal security expenses.
- Congressional Democrats have vowed to investigate the Trump family for alleged enrichment during the presidency, and scrutiny of the family's business and travel finances remains high.
