REPORT: Iran Had Plot to ASSASSINATE Trump Weeks Before Shooting

According to new reports, Iran had a plot to assassinate President Trump prior to the July 13th rally shooting.

U.S. intel reportedly received intel about an Iranian plan to kill Donald Trump, and the Secret Service shared this information with Trump’s campaign.

This led to increased security around Trump in the days leading up to the assassination attempt by 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks.

Take a look at the breaking new development:

According to CNN, Trump's protection was actually *enhanced* when the incident unfolded.

Here’s what CNN is reporting:

US authorities obtained intelligence from a human source in recent weeks on a plot by Iran to try to assassinate Donald Trump, a development that led to the Secret Service increasing security around the former president in recent weeks, multiple people briefed on the matter told CNN.

There’s no indication that Thomas Matthew Crooks, the would-be assassin who attempted to kill the former president on Saturday, was connected to the plot, the sources said.

The existence of the intelligence threat from a hostile foreign intelligence agency — and the enhanced security for Trump — raises new questions about the security lapses at the Saturday rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, and how a 20-year-old man managed to access a nearby rooftop to fire shots that injured the former president.

A US national security official said the Secret Service and Trump campaign were made aware of the threat before Saturday’s 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.”

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,” the campaign said in a statement.

Now, I’m not sure I’m buying this story.

It seems to be like Secret Service is trying to shift the blame for their obvious failure to protect President Trump (whether intentional or not.)

The news about Iran wanting to assassinate Trump is obviously a lie.
