U.S. intelligence services have uncovered a sinister plot by Iran to assassinate former President Donald Trump. This alarming discovery comes just days after Trump narrowly survived an assassination attempt by 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, which authorities believe is unrelated to the Iranian scheme, according to a source from CNN.

In response to this disturbing news, Secret Service officials have intensified security measures around Trump to protect him from any potential threats.

Recent developments have raised concerns about security protocols at the rally held in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday. The intelligence threat from a hostile foreign entity and the subsequent increase in security measures for former President Trump have prompted new questions about possible security lapses at the event.

A U.S. national security official confirmed that both the Secret Service and the Trump campaign were informed of the threat prior to the rally.

“Secret Service learned of the increased threat from this threat stream,” the official told CNN. “NSC directly contacted USSS at a senior level to be absolutely sure they continued to track the latest reporting. USSS shared this information with the detail lead, and the Trump campaign was made aware of an evolving threat. 

“In response to the increased threat, Secret Service surged resources and assets for the protection of former President Trump. All of this was in advance of Saturday.”

In a statement, the Trump campaign team said, “The Trump campaign would not disclose whether it was made aware of the Iran threat. We do not comment on President Trump’s security detail. All questions should be directed to the United States Secret Service.”

Individuals familiar with the matter have indicated that Secret Service officials have repeatedly advised the Trump campaign about the increased risks associated with outdoor rallies.

Such events present greater security challenges due to the complexities of controlling access, unlike alternative venues where access can be more tightly regulated.

The warnings from the Secret Service have been general in nature rather than directed at any specific event.
