According to the Wall Street Journal, Israel turned over intelligence saying that there was a credible threat to President Donald Trump as he left the NATO summit in Turkey this week. And. according to an exclusive report from the New York Post, Trump had a guide he wanted the military to follow in the event they succeeded.

“I’ve been on their list for a long time. That’s what we’re dealing with,” Trump said. "... The only thing is, I’ve left instructions — if anything happens, to just literally bomb them at levels that they’ve never seen before.”

Despite reports of threats coming from Israeli intelligence, Trump denied it. Instead, he implied it was more of the same threats recently renewed as the war began. He told the Post that there was "no fresh plan" to kill him; rather, Trump explained, they've been after him for years, even as an ex-president.

“No, no. Israel came up with nothing. No, no,” he said. “I’ve been number one [on Iran’s kill list] for a long time, and it’s the way life is, you know.”

“I hope you’ll miss me,” he added.

The report said that calls against Trump have been "supercharged" as of late. There was a days-long funeral this week for Iran's late supreme leader, Ali Khamenei.

Speaker Mohammad Rasouli said over Khamenei's body: “Why shouldn't we kill the one who killed my Imam and my Leader?”

“It is a disgrace for us if we do not kill your killer," Rasouli said.

Posters were seen all along the sidelines of the ceremony calling for an attack on the U.S. president, along with often-used phrases like "death to America" or “death to Israel."

Trump made it clear to his military leaders that if there was ever even an attempt to kill him, they were to “wipe [Iran] off the face of this Earth."

Trump has previously threatened on Truth Social, "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again."

If Trump were killed, however, he would no longer be commander-in-chief; that job would fall to Vice President JD Vance. So, it's unclear whether those orders could be legally carried out without a new president's sign-off.
