US Warns Trump of Iranian Assassination Threats

Former President Donald Trump has been briefed by U.S. intelligence officials about real and specific threats from Iran to assassinate him, aimed at destabilizing the United States. Trump has survived two assassination attempts in recent months, including a shooting at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania and another plot foiled near his golf course in Florida. He has warned Iran that the U.S. military is on high alert, while expressing appreciation for Congress's bipartisan support for increased Secret Service protection. Trump alleges Iran also hacked his campaign and leaked information to the Biden-Harris campaign, though Iran denies these accusations. The threats have heightened in recent months, prompting intensified protective measures and efforts to ensure election security.
