Former President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that he has been briefed by intelligence officials about another deadly plot to assassinate him, a “big threat” he said was nearly implemented by one of America’s most notorious foreign foes.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump said the U.S. military is “watching and waiting” to see whether Iran makes good on a clandestine plot to kill him before Election Day. A campaign spokesman added that U.S. intelligence officials briefs him on “real and specific threats” meant to destabilize the country. “Big threats on my life by Iran. The entire U.S. Military is watching and waiting. Moves were already made by Iran that didn’t work out, but they will try again,” Trump wrote Tuesday night.

“Not a good situation for anyone,” he went on. “I am surrounded by more men, guns, and weapons than I have ever seen before. Thank you to Congress for unanimously approving far more money to Secret Service – Zero ‘NO’ Votes, strictly bipartisan. Nice to see Republicans and Democrats get together on something. An attack on a former President is a Death Wish for the attacker!”

“President Trump was briefed earlier today by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence regarding real and specific threats from Iran to assassinate him in an effort to destabilize and sow chaos in the United States,” spokesperson Steven Cheung said in a statement to NBC News. “Intelligence officials have identified that these continued and coordinated attacks have heightened in the past few months, and law enforcement officials across all agencies are working to ensure President Trump is protected and the election is free from interference.”

A spokesperson for the Office of the Director of National Intelligence confirmed that President Trump was briefed but declined to elaborate on the number or nature of the latest threats against him. The Iranian mission to the United Nations in New York and the Harris campaign both did not respond to requests for comment.

The Secret Service ramped up its security around President Trump following the July 13th shooting that nearly claimed his life. A postmortem of the historic security failure found agents wholly undertrained and unprepared to coordinate with local authorities, operate their limited inventory of equipment, or keep tabs on a suspicious individual before he opened fire. Days later, the Biden administration made public its knowledge of the Iranian plot against Trump, and acting Secret Service director Robert Rowe green-lit Trump’s access to additional security personnel.

However, the embattled security agency has been in turmoil ever since, and questions remain about its preparedness to prevent similar attacks. On Wednesday a preliminary report from the U.S. Senate found that agents were given little time to train with unmanned drones responsible for patrolling the rally site in Butler, Pennsylvania. Worse, counter-snipers were unable to communicate with authorities on the ground tracking 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks as he looked for a vantage point atop a nearby roof. When authorities alerted the Secret Service about the threat posed by the open roof, no follow-up was sought, and the roof remained unsecured. Crooks ultimately positioned himself there, firing multiple rounds and striking Trump once while killing another and critically wounding two more.
