BREAKING: Charges brought in Iranian plot to kill Donald Trump

The Justice Department unsealed criminal charges Friday in a thwarted Iranian plot to kill President-elect Donald Trump before this week’s presidential election. A criminal complaint filed in federal court in Manhattan alleges that an unnamed official in Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard instructed a contact this past September to put together a plan to surveil and ultimately kill Trump.

You know there's more to this story.its not just Iran

[truthAngel]

Oh it's Iran, acted totally alone. Right. I don't believe that is the truth

[JohnBaran-kwjf]

Are you sure it was Iran and not the CIA?

[Randy-jzox]

I pray that we protect our people. All of them. God bless America.

[roroneto]

And we wonder why the border is open...

[Black.Seed.]

It was Iran!!!
The government told me, they would never lie to me!

[JoshEbalo]

Crazy how everything will hit the air now about threats

[Farah_Royal]

So, why are we learning about this now. Would we have known if he wasn’t elected? Unbelievable!

[MrTREY]

Iran will have a new president soon too. Congrats !!!

[TreciaThompson-ud]

I dont believe for a second... so much propaganda

[tomasw]

You know, I have a great idea. Trump should put KENNEDY in charge of the fbi AND the cia AND have access to all the reports, names, and addresses of the people involved in both Kennedy assassinations. Justice would be better served.

Interesting this comes out from the DOJ /FBI after the Election ...wonder why .

[brendabaldauf]

Imagine that FBI and DOJ would never have said a damn word if he had lost.

[nathanieldowning]

That’s why you don’t let certain people in the country.

[oneeyedjack-gp]

hire some PROFESSIONAL SECURITY and watch-out as this is only the beginning !!!

[sweetonyxakararegem]

This is why you cant just let anybody in the country the contact sent to do this is somewhere nearby!

[latjx]

I feel like this is the FBI not Iran cause the guy that’s the Head Of The FBI just mentioned he will step down if Trump tries to make him or he won’t retire this is crazy but aye idk

[Lorana]

No. The eyes should definitely be on the US gov’t but also not ignore Iran. We have learned a lot from our own gov’t.

[wqvln]

So why didn't the FBI tell us sooner?!

[kennykallday]

DOJ Trying so hard to get on his good side now
