WASHINGTON (TNND) — A video released by Iranian state media claims President Donald Trump’s youngest son, Barron Trump, is being “fully monitored.”
The threat raises concern as Barron Trump is not a politician nor does he hold any public office.
The video is titled “Where to Kill Barron Trump” and reportedly shows images of dorms at New York University, where Barron Trump goes to school. It ends with the message: “This is just the beginning. Barron Trump, wait for us.”
The U.S. Secret Service confirmed it is aware of the video and is investigating anything that can be perceived as a threat against its protectees.
The Iranian regime has placed a $10 million bounty on Barron Trump’s head, according to the New York Post.
The video comes as the war with Iran continues and the Trump administration increases pressure on the regime. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said a major new sanctions push is now underway, what he called an “economic D-Day” against Iran.
The targeting of Barron Trump is being viewed as an attempt to intimidate the president through his family as the Secret Service looks into the matter.
