The Strategic Defeat in Syria and Lebanon Is a Clear Reflection of the Clerical Regime’s Weakness and Instability The Next Dictatorship to Be Overthrown is the Mullahs’ Regime We are happy that PMOI members at Ashraf 3 are joining us today in this conference.

I hope this year will be a successful year for the people of the United States and a year of freedom, peace and prosperity for our people and the entire Middle East. The Regime’s Setbacks in 2024 2024 was a year full of serious defeats for the regime. We saw widespread boycotts of two sham elections, increased resistance in prisons, more young people joining Resistance Units, and the expansion of their activities. The regime also confronted a broken economy, 40% inflation, widespread poverty and massive financial corruption, especially among officials and IRGC commanders and growing d...
Trump Faces Heightened Security Over Iranian Threats
Recent intelligence reports and a separate assassination attempt have prompted heightened security measures for former President Donald Trump. U.S. authorities have been tracking threats from Iran. The latest developments underscore ongoing security challenges and the complexities of protecting high-profile figures.
According to reports from multiple sources, including the Associated Press (AP), USA Today, and CNN, U.S. authorities received intelligence indicating a credible Iranian plot to assassinate Trump. This prompted the U.S. Secret Service to significantly increase security around the former president. The National Security Council (NSC) spokesperson Adrienne Watson confirmed that threats against Trump and former administration officials have been tracked for years, highlighting Iran’s ongoing desire for revenge for Soleimani’s killing.
The AP reported that the latest threat, separate from the recent assassination attempt, led to a surge in resources and assets for Trump’s protection. National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson noted that these threats are considered matters of the highest national and homeland security priority. Watson stated, “These threats arise from Iran’s desire to seek revenge for the killing of Qassem Soleimani.”
Following the assassination of Soleimani, the Biden administration has continued to provide 24/7 protection to former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and his top Iran aide, Brian Hook, due to credible threats on their lives from Iran. Other high-level officials, including former Defense Secretary Mark Esper and retired military generals, remain under protection.
Iranian Plot and Security Measures
USA Today reported that the White House continues to monitor Iranian threats against former Trump officials. However, law enforcement has not linked these threats to the recent attempted assassination of Trump. The NSC confirmed that while threats from Iran persist, there is no known connection between the attempt on Trump’s life and foreign officials. The Secret Service had increased security for Trump following intelligence about an Iranian plot. Agency spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi stated, “The Secret Service and other agencies are constantly receiving new potential threat information and taking action to adjust resources as needed.”

Detailed Threat and Recent Assassination Attempt
CNN provided an exclusive look at the intelligence and security responses. Authorities received information about an Iranian plot to assassinate Trump, leading to enhanced security. Sources told CNN, “Secret Service learned of the increased threat from this threat stream.” Despite these measures, the assassination attempt by Thomas Matthew Crooks at a Pennsylvania rally is not connected to the Iranian plot. The FBI, investigating the shooting, has found no links between Crooks and any foreign or domestic accomplices. The Permanent Mission of Iran to the United Nations denied involvement, stating, “These accusations are unsubstantiated and malicious.”
Intelligence on Iranian Plot Elevates Security Measures for Trump
The threats from Iran are part of a broader pattern of hostility following the killing of Soleimani. Former officials like John Bolton and Robert O’Brien continue to face significant risks. In August 2022, the Justice Department charged a member of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps for plotting to kill Bolton. The recent surge in threats coincides with increased online messaging from Iranian state-backed media, raising security concerns among U.S. officials.
Conclusion
The series of threats from Iran and the recent assassination attempt on Donald Trump have highlighted the persistent security challenges faced by former Trump administration officials. While the attempted assassination and the Iranian plot are separate incidents, the ongoing threats underscore the complex security landscape. U.S. authorities remain vigilant, continuously adapting their strategies to protect current and former officials from potential retaliation. The situation remains dynamic, with law enforcement and intelligence agencies working tirelessly to mitigate risks and ensure the safety of those targeted by these threats.
Written by Mahmoud Hakamian Two-minute read On Sunday morning, April 14, the Iranian regime launched an unprecedented attack against Israel, escalating tensions in the Middle East. Despite military experts’ assessments that the attack failed, it underscores Iran’s role as a focal point of regional conflict. The October 7th attack sent shockwaves globally. Despite ample evidence implicating the Iranian regime, Western governments dismissed Tehran’s involvement, adhering to a flawed appeasement policy toward the primary state sponsor of terrorism. They disregarded explicit statements from Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) commanders boasting about their direct role in the attack. For decades, the Iranian Resistance has urged the international community to adopt a resolute stance against the Iranian regime’s aggression and terrorism. Despite persistent calls, the failed appeasement policy of the West allowed Tehran to escalate its belligerent activities, including ...

At the first step, you should be the center of this cruelty and the godfather of crime and murder, terrorism and fundamentalism that nobody is part of Iran's terrorist government. The fact is that the killing and execution of political and conscientious prisoners in public or in prisons is secretly in its astronomical dimensions on the coin of killing innocent people abroad by this regime. The issuance of terrorism and the support of fundamentalist and terrorist groups in this regime is institutionalized and is part of the constitution. The crimes committed by perpetrators and groups affiliated with this corrupt and expansionist state in Syria and Lebanon and Iraq ...
By DR. MAJID RAFIZADEH President Donald Trump will make a decision on whether the US will leave or stick with the Iran nuclear deal, also known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, by May 12. It has been almost three years since the nuclear accord was reached between the Islamic Republic and the UN Security Council’s five permanent members — Russia, the UK, China, France, and the US — plus Germany (the P5+1). Since the JCPOA’s implementation day on Jan. 16, 2016, the Iranian regime has been receiving various benefits that can be divided into four categories. Based on the terms of the JCPOA, four rounds of the United Nations Security Council’s economic sanctions against Tehran were lifted immediately. The regime also received unilateral sanctions relief from individual countries in exchange for halting its nuclear activities and dismantling some sections of its nuclear program. For instanc...
