Iran Knew Trump's Location Before Air Force One Ruse
Newsmax ^

Posted on 08/12/2026 8:55:44 AM PDT by DIRTYSECRET

Iran knew remarkably specific details about Trump's stay in Ankara during the NATO summit, including where he was staying and even which floor of the building he was on, according to two U.S. officials.

U.S. intelligence picked up multiple streams of information on July 8, including a specific threat against whichever aircraft was carrying the president and a report that someone near the summit had been spotted with a shoulder-fired missile.

Air Force One departed separately with senior administration officials, government employees, military personnel, and JOURNALISTS aboard.

It's OUR OWN elephant in the room as Trump should not be traveling. Too many want to see him taken out. Travel to campaign but it should be cut off after November. Let Marco do the overseas flying. Make foreign leaders come here. This is getting too scary.

The only thing funny about this episode is the journalists and their reaction to being left on AF1. It’s as if they should have been informed and blow the secret up.

Marco and Bessnet would have gone down with them.

While I’m happy the crew of AF1 is safe, it’s not like humans were in danger when the cargo was just a bunch of prostitutes.

Suppose we’ll ever find out which moles in our trusted Intelligence Community passed that information on to the Iranians?

The only thing the left is upset about is President Trump was able to potentially twart ANOTHER assassination attempt.

If some of their colleagues would have gotten blown up as long as President Trump would have died also they would have had no problem with it.

Using JOURNALISTS as live bait to lure the terrorist predators out of hiding? I’m trying to feel like that’s wrong, but, well, they must be useful for something.

Perhaps they should have left the “journalists” behind as a deversion so Trump could escape. The journalists continue to place themselves on pedestals about how brave, daring and important they are. Okay, show me.

There will come a time when the government just may have to be run from a bunker. Too many modern weapons out there.

“Using JOURNALISTS as live bait to lure the terrorist predators out of hiding?”

Where in that account is that concept alluded to? The terrorist predators would have remained hidden under any circumstance.

I have always felt that the press should hire their own planes and not riding in AF1. That is not a right, it is a privilege that can be revoked. They can ESAD.

I heard valiant NBC News hero Brian Williams took out the shoulder-fired missile guy in hand-to-hand combat.

Oh wait, it was Trump. "Never mind, missile guy, shoot!"

WTH?

Air Force One is heavily protected and considered one of the most secure aircraft
in the world, featuring advanced missile defense systems, electronic countermeasures,
and armor designed to withstand severe threats


Plus these guys...

You mean someone in Turkey gave away all the details. No way, they are our friends.

I reposted this yesterday, what I saw on the day all this occurred:

“7/10/2026, 8:18:19 AM · 14 of 15
suthener to McGruff
I was watching this periodically on Flightradar24. I saw something I thought was strange; the “Doomsday Plane” flew out of Sicily at around the same time Trump was supposed to leave Turkey. It flew with two Stratotankers. Southwest of England they met up with two more Stratotankers and the Stratotankers started flying loops, which I believe indicates they were refueling fighter escorts. Then the tankers flew away in different directions and the Doomsday Plane continued on across the Atlantic. I wondered at the time if they had smuggled Trump onto the Doomsday plane but apparently they did not.”

I’m still not sure they’re telling the exact truth of how Trump got out there, which I’m okay with.

Trump should not be traveling...

Nonsense.

POTUS is 100% insulated - any discussion suggesting he’s even a target is false.

All will come into focus and for anyone to think POTUS is not in control is kidding themselves. Also, he's 100% insulated...

False flag(s). POTUS 100% insulated. Expect fireworks. JUSTICE.

I’d guess it’s somebody within the Secret Service. Not necessarily one of the POTUS personal detail, but somebody within the organization who has access to travel details. Didn’t a couple of anti-Trump dissidents from USSS get booted recently?
