Reports: Secret Service ramped up Trump security weeks ago over Iranian plot


Full story

Secret Service security was reportedly already ramped up around former President Donald Trump weeks before the Saturday, July 13 assassination attempt, after U.S. intelligence officials say they found evidence of an Iranian plot to kill him. According to multiple reports, the agency increased resources and assets for Trump’s protection in June.

So far, intelligence officials have found no ties between the shooting and the Iranian plot.

Sources familiar with the matter say Iran has been making these types of threats since the former president Trump ordered the airstrike that killed Iranian military general Qasem Soleimani in January 2020.
