Trump Sends Clear Shot At Iran After More Threats Made Against His Life

Former President Donald Trump warned the Islamic Republic of Iran during the early morning hours on Wednesday that it was playing with fire by continuing to target him following two assassination attempts that he has survived in recent months.

The remarks from Trump came after his campaign revealed that he had a meeting on Tuesday with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) regarding “real and specific threats from Iran to assassinate him in an effort to destabilize and sow chaos in the United States.”

“Big threats on my life by Iran,” Trump posted on X. “The entire U.S. Military is watching and waiting. Moves were already made by Iran that didn’t work out, but they will try again. Not a good situation for anyone. I am surrounded by more men, guns, and weapons than I have ever seen before.”

“Thank you to Congress for unanimously approving far more money to Secret Service – Zero ‘NO’ Votes, strictly bipartisan,” he added. “Nice to see Republicans and Democrats get together on something. An attack on a former President is a Death Wish for the attacker!”

The remarks from Trump come after federal law enforcement officials foiled an assassination plot against Trump in July by a Pakistani man with alleged ties to Iran.

Iran also hacked the Trump campaign and sent the stolen information to the former Biden-Harris campaign and to media organizations.

The former president was shot in the ear during an assassination attempt in mid-July at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Trump was almost the target of another gunman last week when a man armed with a rifle was caught hiding near Trump’s golf course in West Palm Beach, waiting hundreds of yards from the former president.

Ryan Routh Charged With Attempting To Kill Donald Trump

Prosecutors announced on Tuesday that Ryan Routh has been charged with attempting to kill former president Donald Trump.

Prosecutors said during a pretrial detention hearing for Routh on Monday that they were seeking to charge Routh for attempted assassination. A grand jury in Florida decided to indict Routh on Tuesday for attempting to kill Trump, as well as four other charges, adding to two federal gun charges the 58-year-old was already facing.

“Routh is charged with attempted assassination of a presidential candidate, which strikes at the very heart of our democratic system,” FBI Director Christopher Wray said in a statement. “The FBI is continuing our investigation into this alleged plot and will use the full weight and resources of the FBI to uncover and provide as much information as possible about what led to the events in West Palm Beach. In our country, we have to hold accountable people who resort to violence.”

In addition to a charge of attempted assassination of a presidential candidate, the grand jury indicted Routh with possessing a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence, assaulting a federal officer, felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition, and possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number.

Routh hid in the treeline on the outskirts of Trump International Golf Course on September 15, according to prosecutors. Routh, armed with a rifle, was hiding in wait for Trump when Secret Service agents saw the barrel of Routh’s rifle and opened fire, court documents said.

Routh fled the scene, but was apprehended by law enforcement after a witness saw him take off in a black Nissan Xterra, prosecutors said. Law enforcement searched Routh’s vehicle and found “a handwritten list of dates in August, September, and October and venues where the former President had appeared or was expected to be present,” according to the Department of Justice.

In a box Routh left with a “civilian witness,” Routh wrote a handwritten letter addressed to “Dear World,” which stated, “This was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump but I am so sorry I failed you,” prosecutors said.
