A video circulating in Iran and widely shared across social media has sparked intense outrage, as it presents hypothetical scenarios for the assassination of U.S. First Lady Melania Trump. The content includes references to her movements, hypothetical proposals for potential attacks, and direct threats against her son, Barron Trump.
According to reports, the video was originally published by the Iranian news agency Tasnim, which is considered to be closely affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). Titled “How to Kill Melania Trump,” the audiovisual material claims to expose the “vulnerabilities” of the U.S. First Lady, presenting hypothetical scenarios of a terrorist attack or assassination attempt.
The scenarios are developed using information already available in the public domain, including the Secret Service code names of Donald and Melania Trump, while footage of her motorcade is shown alongside images of New York City neighborhoods where she is known to shop.
The video goes as far as naming specific luxury fashion boutiques reportedly frequented by Melania Trump, suggesting that her shopping outings could serve as “suitable targets for operations by global freedom fighters.” It also references the potential use of a neurotoxic agent to contaminate clothing she might purchase.

Shock over video depicting assassination scenarios targeting Melania Trump — “Barron Trump, we’re coming for you”
At the end of the video, a message appears that is considered a direct threat against the U.S. president’s 20-year-old son. “This is only the beginning. Barron Trump, we’re coming for you,” it states explicitly.
Melania and Barron Trump are under permanent Secret Service protection, with heightened security measures in place at all key family properties, including the White House, Trump Tower in New York City, the golf club in Bedminster, and Mar-a-Lago in Florida.
As of now, according to U.S. media reports, neither the White House nor the Secret Service has officially commented on the video.
Threats against the Trump family escalate following the conflict with Iran
Threats against the U.S. president’s family have intensified since the outbreak of the war with Iran. Last week, billboards erected at various locations across Tehran called for the deaths of Donald Trump and his family members, including Melania Trump and his children Donald Jr., Ivanka, Eric, Tiffany, and Barron. The central slogan read: “Blood for blood.”
Melania Trump has significantly reduced her public appearances in recent weeks. She was notably absent from the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, with a source close to her attributing the absence to a “scheduling conflict.”
New Iranian propaganda video depicts the elimination of America’s entire political leadership
Meanwhile, a new propaganda video released by Iran portrays a scenario in which the entire U.S. political leadership is wiped out.
One particular detail in the video drew significant attention: in one scene, Donald Trump is shown sleeping alone, with Melania Trump nowhere beside him. The First Lady’s absence was widely discussed on social media, with many users suggesting it was a deliberate symbolic choice, though no explanation is offered within the video itself.
