Justice Department brings criminal charges in Iranian murder-for-hire plan targeting Donald Trump
Briefly

Farhad Shakeri, an accused Iranian government asset, revealed that he was instructed by a contact in Iran's Revolutionary Guard to surveil and ultimately kill Donald Trump.
Shakeri cited a quote from his contact saying, 'We have already spent a lot of money and that money's not an issue,' indicating significant resources were allocated for the plot.
The plot's urgency was underscored by a seven-day deadline given by the Iranian official, suggesting plans would be paused if Trump lost the election.
Attorney General Merrick Garland emphasized the serious threat posed by Iran, stating, 'There are few actors in the world that pose as grave a threat to the national security of the United States as does Iran.'
