The U.S. Secret Service has confirmed it is investigating a video aired on Iranian state media that appears to threaten the life of Barron Trump, President Trump's youngest son. Secret Service spokesman Nate Herring said in a statement, "The U.S. Secret Service is aware of the video and investigates anything that can be perceived as a threat toward our protectees." Herring added that, for security reasons, the agency does not discuss the specifics of protective intelligence matters. The report comes amid heightened tensions with Tehran's regime, which has a documented history of targeting current and former U.S. officials, including through state media threats. Authorities are treating the video seriously as part of ongoing protective measures for the Trump family.
