The U.S. government is taking serious measures to protect former President Donald Trump and his aides from assassination threats by Iran. Reports from Politico and Fox News indicate that Iran has a hit list targeting Trump and his former officials, motivated by the U.S. drone strike that killed Iranian General Qasem Soleimani in January 2020. U.S. President Joe Biden has warned Iran that any attempt on Trump's life would be considered an act of war. Biden has instructed his National Security Council to communicate this stance to Tehran, emphasizing that such threats are a matter of national and homeland security of the highest priority.
