The Department of Justice revealed a thwarted Iranian plot to assassinate a former president, detailing a network directed by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. An individual, tasked with surveilling and potentially killing the former president, was reportedly given a deadline to devise a plan, with the IRGC suggesting they could wait until after the election if necessary. The implications of this plot raise significant concerns about national security and the lengths to which foreign actors will go to influence U.S. politics.
