The White House is reportedly concerned Iran may attempt to carry out assassination attempts against former Trump administration officials, or the former President himself. On Sunday, national security adviser Jake Sullivan made comments regarding the concerning messaging from Iran, noting that the United States is aware of and monitoring any threats against U.S. officials.
According to The Washington Examiner:
“Make no mistake: the United States of America will protect and defend its citizens,” White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan said Sunday. “This includes those serving the United States now and those who formerly served.”
Iranian officials have made explicit their interest in killing one of the people involved in the U.S. strike that killed Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Gen. Qassem Soleimani. The regime observed the second anniversary of his death last week, which occasioned a flurry of truculent rhetoric and the unveiling of economic sanctions by Iran that U.S. observers take as a proxy for a threat of violence.
