'Where Should We Kill Barron Trump?' Iran State TV Puts $10 Million Bounty On Trump's Youngest Son
Iranian state television has aired a three-minute segment targeting President Donald Trump's youngest son, Barron Trump, and claiming a $10 million bounty has been offered for his killing. The Channel 3 broadcast, released by IRGC-affiliated media, was titled “Where and how should we kill Barron Trump?” It purported to track the 20-year-old's movements, including his university, escort vehicles and the positioning of his Secret Service detail.
The broadcast alleged that Barron's movements had been “fully monitored” and claimed that he communicates privately through voice and text on Xbox away from his security detail. These claims could not be independently verified.
The report also claimed that a woman had found a way past Barron's Secret Service protection, met him privately and passed information to the programme's makers.
The segment included purported addresses and a reconstruction of Barron's route to university in Washington. It also claimed Secret Service agents guard him around the clock and allegedly pose as students at his university.
Much of the footage was based on staged AI-generated imagery, according to the report. The claim that a $10 million bounty had been placed on Barron could not be independently verified at the time of publication.
The broadcast is not the first time Iranian state-affiliated media has targeted members of Trump's family.
In July, the IRGC-affiliated Tasnim news agency released a video titled “Where and how is Melania Trump accessible?”, which detailed alleged movements and security vulnerabilities involving First Lady Melania Trump. In late May, the New York Post reported on an alleged plot targeting Ivanka Trump.
Iranian state media has also previously aired direct threats against President Trump. One Tehran billboard depicted Trump apparently dead in a coffin alongside the words “We will kill Trump” in English.
The threats come amid heightened tensions between Washington and Tehran. In January 2020, a US drone strike authorized by Trump killed Quds Force commander Qassem Soleimani at Baghdad International Airport. Iranian officials vowed retaliation.
The more recent escalation followed the death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in US-Israeli strikes on February 28, which marked the opening of the ongoing war.
Some Iranian state-media figures have framed threats against Trump through the Islamic legal concept of “qisas,” or retributive justice, arguing that the killing of Iran's leader creates an obligation to target those deemed responsible. Trump has previously warned that any attempt on his life would trigger a severe US response.
