A chilling alleged Iranian plot to assassinate President Donald Trump was reportedly stopped at the last minute, with sources claiming the plan involved blowing his new $400 million presidential jet out of the sky.
The reported scheme, first detailed by RadarOnline.com, allegedly centered on Trump’s luxury Air Force One-style aircraft, a lavish plane said to have been gifted by Qatar. But according to the report, Trump and his security team were already aware of the threat and moved quickly to outmaneuver it before Iran could strike.
The alleged plot comes amid escalating tensions between the United States and Iran, with Trump repeatedly warning that Tehran has placed him at the top of its assassination list.
“I’m No. 1 on the kill list for Iran,” Trump reportedly said before departing Ankara, Turkey, where he had been attending a NATO summit earlier this month.
According to sources cited in the report, Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency tipped off U.S. officials about the threat. From there, Trump’s top advisers and the Secret Service reportedly used a “distraction and misdirection” strategy to keep the president safe while changing travel plans behind the scenes.
Rather than boarding the newer $400 million aircraft, Trump and his team allegedly ditched the plane and used the older Air Force One instead. That move may have made all the difference.
The older aircraft is equipped with an advanced suite of missile and drone defense systems, security protections that would reportedly cost more than $1 billion to install on the newer jet.
White House communications director Steven Cheung appeared to confirm the seriousness of the threat environment surrounding the president.
“As the president has said recently, there are many enemies of America who have their sights on him, and we use every tool at our disposal — including distraction and misdirection — to address those threats,” Cheung said, according to the report.
The alleged assassination scare reportedly unfolded as Trump landed in Turkey, roughly 800 miles west of Iran’s border, at a particularly explosive moment in the region.
Iran was reportedly holding a public funeral service for Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was said to have been killed during U.S. strikes on February 28 that launched Operation Epic Fury and triggered a war between Iran and the United States.
According to national security expert Wayne Madsen, the timing raised major alarm bells for American officials.
Madsen claimed Iranian forces may have been weighing the use of heat-seeking missiles and attack drones to take down Trump’s aircraft.
“The drone threat is why the Secret Service made the call to switch planes,” Madsen said, according to the report. “They left quickly because National Security officials picked up communications from Iran indicating they were considering using a drone against the plane, and the order was given: ‘Get out of here now before they can carry this out.’”
During Khamenei’s July 9 funeral procession, mourners reportedly chanted violent threats against Trump, including, “I swear by the blood of the Supreme Leader, Trump, we will kill you!”
Trump, never one to shrink from a threat, has made clear that any attempt on his life would trigger overwhelming retaliation.
In a blistering July 10 Truth Social post, the president warned Iran that America’s military response would be devastating if Tehran moved forward with any assassination attempt.
“1000 Missiles are Locked and Loaded and aimed at the Islamic Republic of Iran, with thousands of more to immediately follow, should the Iranian Government act on its threat, pronounced in many corners of the Globe, to assassinate, or attempt to assassinate, the sitting President of the United States of America, in this case, ME!” Trump wrote.
He continued, “Orders have already been given, and the U.S. Military is ready, willing, and able, for a one year period of time, subject to extension, to completely decimate and destroy all areas of Iran.”
Trump also told the New York Post that he had already left instructions in the event Iran ever succeeded in killing him.
“If anything happens,” Trump said, the U.S. should “just literally bomb them at levels that they’ve never seen before.”
“I’ve been No. 1 on Iran’s list for a long time, and it’s the way life is, you know,” he added, before making a dark joke: “I hope you’ll miss me.”
The alleged plot underscores the extraordinary security risks surrounding Trump as tensions with Iran continue to boil over. While critics have accused the president of inflaming the crisis with tough talk and military action, his supporters argue the reported assassination threat shows exactly why Trump’s hardline approach is necessary.
For Trump’s allies, the message is simple: America’s enemies are not merely watching from the sidelines. They are allegedly plotting in real time.
And this time, according to the report, the Secret Service, U.S. intelligence, and America’s allies may have stopped a catastrophic attack just in time.
