Ivanka Trump Assasination Plot: Was The Threat Linked To Qasem Soleimani's Death?

Ivanka Trump has reportedly been placed under significantly tighter security in Florida this month after US authorities uncovered an alleged assassination plot said to be linked to the 2020 killing of Iranian commander Qasem Soleimani. The threat to the former first daughter, now 44, is said to have prompted sweeping changes to the way she, her husband Jared Kushner and their three children move and live.

Reports say Iraqi terror suspect Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood al-Saadi discussed targeting Ivanka Trump as retaliation for then-President Donald Trump's decision to authorise the drone strike that killed Soleimani in January 2020. The killing of the Quds Force leader triggered vows of revenge from Tehran and its allies, while Ivanka's name has rarely surfaced in public discussion of possible reprisals. The National Enquirer previously reported on the alleged plot, and Rob Shuter has since expanded on the fallout in his Naughty But Nice Substack newsletter.
