Secret Service investigates Iran-linked video targeting Melania Trump

The Secret Service is reviewing the clip as a potential threat after it outlined attack methods and named Barron Trump, officials said.

  • On Monday, the Tasnim News Agency released a propaganda video titled 'How to Kill Melania Trump', outlining specific assassination threats against First Lady Melania Trump and her son Barron Trump.
  • The AI-generated video analyzes security in New York City, suggesting the use of nerve agent VX and identifying Manhattan retail locations alongside members of the First Lady's styling team.
  • Federal agencies employ a 'total environment' approach to safeguard family residences including Mar-a-Lago, while Iran maintains a history of distributing propaganda recently featuring Lego-style clips mocking the United States.
  • Nate Herring, a U.S. Secret Service Communications and Media Relations specialist, told Newsweek on Monday that the agency investigates anything perceived as a threat to protectees, following Tehran billboards bearing the slogan 'Blood for blood'.
  • Earlier this month, President Donald Trump stated he left instructions for a forceful military response if Iran succeeds in an assassination plot, having identified himself as the regime's primary target.
