Iran Plot to Murder Trump Busted In Texas

Iran sent Asif Raza to plan President Trumps Murder this april 13th. Somehow Terrorist was allowed into the country by Biden Harris Administration.


A Pakistani national linked to Iran and listed on a Terrorist Watch List was allowed entry into the U.S. by the Biden Administration and is now charged with plotting a murder-for-hire scheme against former President Donald Trump.


On Tuesday, the Department of Justice (DOJ) announced charges against 46-year-old Asif Raza Merchant of Pakistan, accusing him of attempting to recruit U.S.-based assassins to kill Trump.


According to the unsealed complaint, Merchant arrived at George Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston, Texas, on April 13. Federal agents interviewed and fingerprinted him, noting his recent travels to Iran, a known hub for Islamic terrorism. Despite Merchant being flagged in the Department of Homeland Security database as a “Lookout Qualified Person of Interest” on a Terrorist Watch List, he was granted entry into the U.S. under a “significant public benefit parole,” which was set to expire on May 11 but was ultimately extended.


Merchant was allowed to travel domestically, boarding flights from Houston to New York City, then to Boston, and back to New York City between April and June. Federal agents arrested him on July 12, just as he was allegedly attempting to return to Pakistan to orchestrate the assassination plot from abroad. Prosecutors allege that Merchant planned to lead the operation while coordinating with the assassins he believed he had recruited in the U.S.


Sources indicate that federal agents may have allowed Merchant entry into the country in hopes of gaining his cooperation in other investigations and turning over additional suspects involved in similar plots.
