Secret Service says it is aware of Iranian state-TV threat against Barron Trump

Iranian state TV aired an IRGC-linked video that claimed a bounty on Barron Trump. It also alleged that someone had found a way past his security. The Secret Service said it checks anything that could threaten someone it protects, but would not discuss its security work. Iranian media have aired several threats against Trump and his family since the U.S. assassination of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
