The Iranian government instructed one of its agents to stalk and assassinate former President Donald Trump this past September, according to a bombshell indictment unsealed by Manhattan federal prosecutors Friday.
The indictment, which charges Iranian Farhad Shakeri and two New Yorkers with murder for hire and conspiracy, states that an unnamed official in Iran’s notorious Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) instructed Shakeri in the final weeks of the 2024 campaign to “focus on surveilling, and, ultimately, assassinating, former President of the United States, Donald J. Trump.”
Prosecutors say that when Shakeri noted that the plot would “cost a ‘huge’ amount of money,” the IRGC official said that “we have already spent a lot of money … [s]o the money’s not an issue.” In a phone conversation with an FBI agent, Shakeri said he was instructed by the IRGC on Oct. 7 of this year to have a plan in place to kill Trump “within seven days.” If Shakeri did not meet his deadline, the IRGC contact allegedly said, the hit on Trump would be postponed until after the election, which Tehran assessed that the Republican nominee would lose “and, afterward, it would be easier to assassinate [him].”

plan was to assassinate on OCTOBER 7!!!!!
That’s an act of war.
Be interesting to see how President Trump responds.
Wow maybe this is true! Nah it’s the FBI and they’re s full of crap.
Simple.
“Act Of War,” plain and obvious.
Git ‘em Trumpy-Bear!
That may be what some in the IC want.
At least part of the reason Bush the Junior went to take out Saddam was for trying to kill Bush the Elder.
If Biden was a leader of any sort, he would be sending missiles into Tehran as we speak.
Why do they say “two New Yorkers”? Are we supposed to believe it’s a couple of guys with names like Vito or Ricardo or Shlomo?
Nuke the life out of Iran!!!!!
The article doesn’t clarify how Shakeri recruited the pair he met in prison.
My read on this:
They let Shakeri flee to Iran before charging the 3 (hence the delayed charges).
And this is what the death penalty is for.
There’s nothing else safe to do with them.
They're covering for the illegals as they always do.
The MSM always tried to portray illegals as homegrown.

This is true regardless who is President.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Ayatollah’s demised has been planned down to the smallest detail just waiting for a green light from Bibi.
No wonder Biden’s being so nice to DJT.

The complaint, which refers to the president-elect as “Victim-4,” also charges Brooklyn native Carlisle Rivera, 49, and Staten Islander Jonathan Loadholt, 36, with murder-for-hire, conspiracy to commit murder-for-hire and money laundering conspiracy.
