Iranian state-run television aired footage referencing the 2024 attack on former U.S. President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, alongside a caption in Farsi translated as “this time the bullet won’t miss the target.” This message was broadcast mid-January and quickly circulated in international media.
U.S. authorities, including the Secret Service, acknowledged awareness of the imagery on Iranian television, but have not confirmed any credible imminent plot against Trump’s life tied to Iran.
📰 What We Know
Not an official order
The broadcast appears to be propaganda from Iranian state media rather than a formal government declaration about targeting Trump. There’s no verified evidence, at this time, that Iran has organized, actionable plans for an assassination. No U.S. intelligence agency has publicly confirmed a credible plot emerging from this broadcast.
Context matters
Iran is dealing with widespread civil unrest and a serious domestic crisis. Nationwide protests have been met with a harsh government crackdown and thousands of deaths reported in the clashes. In this environment, state media often uses aggressive messaging to rally support and shift attention internally.
Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has also publicly blamed Trump for fomenting unrest and called him a “criminal,” tying Trump’s support for protesters to the unrest in Iran.
Iran-U.S. tensions remain high
This comes amid already strained relations between Tehran and Washington. Trump had threatened responses to Iran’s crackdown, and Iran’s state media rhetoric has been increasingly hostile. Still, aggressive rhetoric on state TV does not automatically mean a real, organized assassination attempt is imminent.
📌 Reality Check
✔️ Threat was broadcast publicly by Iranian state media with hostile language.
✔️ U.S. Secret Service is aware and monitoring the situation.
✔️ No verified, credible plot confirmed publicly by U.S. intelligence as of now.
✔️ Domestic unrest and political messaging in Iran are major drivers of heated rhetoric.
🧠 Bottom Line
This is hostile propaganda, not a verified credible assassination plot. Aggressive language from state TV can heighten tensions, but by itself it does not mean an attack is planned or underway. Intelligence agencies will track threats closely, but public evidence of actual IRGC operational plans targeting Trump has not been confirmed.
If you’d like, I can provide a shorter news-style summary suitable for sharing or a timeline of escalating rhetoric between Iran and the United States.
