President Donald Trump has issued one of his strongest warnings yet against the Iranian regime, declaring that if Tehran succeeds in assassinating him, the U.S. military has already been given orders to completely decimate and destroy all areas of Iran using overwhelming force.
In a Truth Social post on Friday night, Trump made it clear that the instructions are already in place and that any attempt on his life by Iranian operatives would trigger an immediate and devastating response far beyond anything previously contemplated.
The warning comes amid chants and banners calling for Trump’s assassination at the funeral of former Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
“WE WILL KILL TRUMP.”
That message has been displayed on massive banners and signs as thousands gather for slain Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s burial ceremony in Iran.

There were also signs and banners with threats against Vice President JD Vance, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Trump stated on Truth Social that orders have already been given and the U.S. military is ready, willing, and able for a one-year period, subject to extension, to completely decimate and destroy all areas of Iran, with “1,000 Missiles Locked and Loaded and aimed at the Islamic Republic of Iran, with thousands of more to immediately follow.”
The president wrote in full:
1000 Missiles are Locked and Loaded and aimed at the Islamic Republic of Iran, with thousands of more to immediately follow, should the Iranian Government act on its threat, pronounced in many corners of the Globe, to assassinate, or attempt to assassinate, the sitting President of the United States of America, in this case, ME! Orders have already been given, and the U.S. Military is ready, willing, and able, for a one year period of time, subject to extension, to completely decimate and destroy all areas of Iran – PRAISE BE TO ALLAH! President DONALD J. TRUMP
Trump added the phrase “PRAISE BE TO ALLAH!” in what appeared to be a pointed jab at the regime.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, in an interview with The New York Post, Trump had previously explained that he has been on Iran’s hit list for a long time and has left explicit instructions that, if anything happens to him, the military should “bomb them at levels they have never seen before.”
“I’ve been on their list for a long time. That’s what we’re dealing with,” Trump said. “The only thing is, I’ve left instructions — if anything happens, to just literally bomb them at levels that they’ve never seen before.”
The president emphasized that this is not an idle threat, but a pre-planned response already authorized to deter and punish any Iranian assassination plot.
