BREAKING NEWS : Trump faces ‘real and specific’ assassination threats from Iran as former president says country is ‘terrified’ of his return

The Republican presidential candidate’s campaign made the assertion Tuesday night, in a statement that painted the plans ‘as an effort to destabilize and sow chaos in the United States.’

The bulletin was sent out by Trump Campaign Communications Director Steven Cheung, and claimed the ex-commander-in-chief had already been briefed about the supposed plot.

This comes days after investigators found that Iranian ‘malicious cyber actors’ emailed associates of President Biden’s campaign with information ‘taken from stolen, non-public material from Trump’s campaign’ over the summer.

It also follows two failed assassination attempts on the aspiring two-term president, the most recent of which occurred just this month.

Donald Trump’s campaign claimed Iran has made ‘real and specific threats’ to assassinate him on Tuesday night.

President Trump was briefed earlier today by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence regarding real and specific threats from Iran to assassinate him in an effort to destabilize and sow chaos in the United States,’ Cheung’s bulletin began.

‘Intelligence officials have identified that these continued and coordinated attacks have heightened in the past few months, and law enforcement officials across all agencies are working to ensure [he] is protected and the election is free from interference.

‘Make no mistake, the terror regime in Iran loves the weakness of Kamala Harris, and is terrified of the strength and resolve of President Trump,’ the senior Trump staffer continued.

‘He will let nothing stop him or get in his way to fight for the American people and to Make America Great Again.’

The statement did not offer any detail on the assassination plot, and has yet to be substantiated by the government.

Iran – the home of anti-Israel group Hezbollah- has previously denied all claims of meddling in US affairs.

However, just last week, multiple federal agencies discerned hackers from the country had sent emails containing stolen material from Trump’s campaign to people involved in Biden’s then re-election campaign.

The claims from Trump’s campaign come days after feds found that Iranian ‘malicious cyber actors’ emailed associates of President Biden’s campaign with information ‘taken from stolen, non-public material from Trump’s campaign’ over the summer

Officials painted the breach as being part of a broader effort by Tehran to influence the upcoming election, hence the Trump campaign’s comments Tuesday that Iran ‘is terrified’ by the prospect of another four years of the former president.

‘Iranian malicious cyber actors have continued their efforts since June to send stolen, non-public material associated with former President Trump’s campaign to US media organizations,’ the FBI, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, and Office of the Director of National Intelligence said in a statement Wednesday.

‘This malicious cyber activity is the latest example of Iran’s multi-pronged approach … to stoke discord and undermine confidence in our electoral process,’ the agencies added.

The joint statement went on to conceded that there was no information to suggest the recipients replied.

Officials also elected to not provide further details on the nature of the stolen material, as did President Biden.

Shots were fired into Vice President ‘ campaign office in Tempe, , cops said Tuesday.

Staffers at the Democratic Party-coordinated campaign office on Monday called Tempe Police to report finding what appeared to be bullet holes through the office’s front windows.

It was the second such shooting in as many weeks, police said, after the front windows were shot with either a BB gun or a pellet gun just after midnight on September 16.

‘No one was inside the office during the overnight hours, but this raises concerns about the safety of those who work in that building, as well as those nearby,’ Public Information Officer Sgt. Ryan Cook said.

Officers are now investigating every possible motive for the shooting, and are working to analyze the evidence collected thus far, the Tempe Police Department said.

The department is investigating the shooting as a property crime because nobody was inside the building at the time.

But police are also implementing additional measures to ensure the safety of the Democrat workers and those in the nearby area, as footage from local news stations showed two bullet holes in a door and two more in windows to the office.

It is one of just 18 field offices for the Harris campaign in Arizona, and is shared by staffers for local Senate and House campaigns, NBC News reports.

‘We are grateful to Tempe Police for coming quickly to the scene, and are fortunate no one was present or injured,’ said Sean McEnerney, Arizona Democratic Party’s coordinated campaign manager.

Democratic Congressman Greg Stanton also expressed ‘a debt of gratitude for each and every campaign staff member, volunteer and canvasser who works out of this critical campaign office.

‘It’s unnerving, but with just 42 days until the end of this election, it won’t stop the important work from getting done,’ he posted to X.
