Senator Grassley Reveals Iranian Assassination Plot Against American Politicians

American lawyer and politician Bobby Scott

Recently released FBI records have revealed a disturbing plot by Iranian-backed plotters to assassinate former President Trump and other American politicians, including President Biden and former presidential candidate Nikki Haley. The assassination plot was reportedly in retaliation for the killing of Iranian military leader Qasem Soleimani. Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley emphasized that 'bad actors' are determined to cause havoc in the country, with American political leaders from both parties being targeted.

Senator Grassley has vowed to continue pressing for answers until Congress and the American people receive the transparency they deserve regarding these threats. Meanwhile, in a separate development, the FBI conducted raids on the homes of at least three high-ranking members of New York City Mayor Eric Adams' administration, including the first deputy mayor and the police commissioner. Electronic devices were seized during the raids, although the reasons behind them remain undisclosed. Mayor Adams has chosen to remain tight-lipped about the situation, citing the need to allow the investigative process to unfold.

This recent incident follows a previous raid on the home of Mayor Adams' top campaign fundraiser last November, indicating ongoing scrutiny of individuals within the mayor's inner circle. In other news, early voting in North Carolina was scheduled to commence today, but a temporary pause has been ordered, delaying the mailing out of ballots. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. requested to have his name removed from the ballot, a request that was denied by a judge. However, the judge did order a pause to allow Kennedy the opportunity to appeal the decision. The judge stipulated that the ballots must be sent out by this afternoon unless an appeals court intervenes.
