By Axios, August 15, 2022

Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was told by the Justice Department that he was a second target of a plot, revealed Wednesday, by an Iranian operative to murder former Trump administration national security adviser John Bolton.

Driving the news: A source close to Pompeo told Axios that DOJ “has confirmed directly to Secretary Pompeo that he is one of the individuals who has been targeted by those who are [charged] in the announced DOJ [documents].”

Catch up quick: DOJ on Wednesday unsealed charges against Shahram Poursafi, a member of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, with use of interstate commerce facilities in the commission of murder-for-hire.

Zoom in: A charging document contains details about an unexplained “second job,” which the source said is a reference to Pompeo.
