Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and former National Security Advisor John Bolton were both targeted in an Iranian assasination plot, a source close to Pompeo told Yahoo News.
On Wednesday, the Justice Department charged a member of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in connection with a plot to murder Bolton, who was part of the Trump administration. The charging documents unsealed on Wednesday reference an unnamed second target, referred to as a former senior high-ranking Trump administration official.
The source close to Pompeo also told Yahoo News that the former secretary of state’s decision whether to run for president in 2024 will be influenced by Iran and China. Protesters in Tehran hold up an image of Qassem Soleimani at a demonstration after the U.S. air strike in Iraq on Jan. 3, 2020, that killed him.
Pursuing this second target, the high-ranking Trump official, would be difficult because of the number of people around him, Poursafi said, according to court documents.
