Iran's parliament reportedly is considering a bill calling for the assassination of both President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Iranian lawmakers are preparing to vote on legislation that would formally authorize a $58 million reward for anyone who kills Trump following the February U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran that killed Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, The Telegraph reported Monday.

Ebrahim Azizi, chair of Iran's national security commission, said the proposed bill — titled "Reciprocal action by military and security forces of the Islamic Republic" — would codify what had previously been limited to regime-linked propaganda campaigns and religious fatwas.

The legislation would also target Netanyahu and U.S. Central Command chief Adm. Brad Cooper, whom Tehran blames for the Feb. 28 operation.

Mahmoud Nabavian, another member of Iran's national security commission, reportedly declared that parliament would soon vote on rewards for whoever "sends Mr. Trump and Netanyahu to hell."

The threats mark the latest escalation in years of Iranian rhetoric directed at Trump, dating back to the 2020 U.S. drone strike that killed Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani.

Trump has repeatedly warned Tehran against carrying out any attacks against him or American interests.

Last year, Trump vowed the United States would "wipe them off the face of the Earth" if Iran attempted to follow through on assassination threats.

Iranian officials and regime-linked groups have repeatedly issued similar threats in recent years.

In March, senior Iranian security official Ali Larijani warned Trump to "watch out for yourself — lest you be eliminated" after Trump threatened devastating retaliation if Iran attempted to block oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz.

In January, Iranian state television aired an image of Trump from the 2024 Butler, Pennsylvania assassination attempt alongside the chilling warning: "This time, the bullet won't miss."

Federal prosecutors have also tied multiple alleged murder-for-hire plots to Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps.

The Justice Department previously announced charges against individuals accused of attempting to recruit assassins to target Trump and other U.S. officials on behalf of Tehran.

Meanwhile, tensions between Washington, Jerusalem, and Tehran remain elevated despite ongoing indirect peace negotiations reportedly being brokered through Pakistan.

Iranian media claim the talks involve disputes over sanctions relief, nuclear restrictions, frozen Iranian assets, and the future of regional conflicts involving Hezbollah and other Iranian proxies.

The Telegraph reported that Iran is demanding an end to sanctions, compensation for war damage, and recognition of Iranian sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz.

At the same time, Israeli officials are reportedly preparing for the possibility of renewed hostilities.

Netanyahu was excused from his criminal trial Monday to attend emergency security meetings following a recent phone call with Trump regarding Iran.

Government sources cited by The Telegraph said both the United States and Israel believe Iran could be preparing a preemptive strike, prompting heightened military readiness across the region.

However, Trump said Monday there was a "very good chance" the U.S. could reach an agreement with Iran to prevent Tehran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, ⁠hours after saying he had postponed a planned military attack at Gulf allies' request to allow negotiations ⁠to continue.

Rachel Maddow highlights a new satirical video game from an activist group named "Secret Handshake" mocking the Trump administration's handling of its war on Iran.

The game "Operation Epic Furious: Strait To Hell" — a reference to Operation Epic Fury, the Pentagon’s name for its mission in Iran — is playable as an old-school arcade game in a protest art installation at the District of Columbia War Memorial.

An audio clip from the Epstein Files Data Set 8. Seems to be a tip call about crimes being committed in the DOJ related to Ghislane Maxwell. I wish I knew the date and time of the call, I would like to know if it is Trump’s 1st Term DOJ or Biden's DOJ. I can't find any more information on the caller or if the FBI followed up.

I am a mother from Gaza, 43 years old, carrying a heart full of pain that words can hardly describe. Every single day, I live holding onto a small hope that this suffering will one day end. I have four children. Before the war, we lived a simple but peaceful life filled with warmth, safety, and love. Our home was not luxurious, but it was full of laughter, comfort, and beautiful memories. My children were very ambitious and full of dreams. Each of them had hopes for a bright future, and despite the simplicity of our life, we were happy and grateful because we had peace. Then the war came… and with it came destruction that took everything from us. In one moment, our entire life changed. Our home, the place that carried all our memories and dreams, was destroyed. Schools and universities stopped, education disappeared, and years of hard work and hope were suddenly lost. We were forced to flee again and again from one place to another, carrying our fear, our children, and the little that remained of our broken lives. We experienced hunger in the cruelest way. We learned what it means for children to wait for hours just to get a piece of bread or clean water. We lived through nights of bombing, terror, and sleepless fear, never knowing if we would survive until morning. I saw fear in my children’s eyes every single day, and I tried to appear strong for them while my heart was breaking silently inside. We lost our home, our work, our stability, and the life we once knew. I became unable to provide even the most basic necessities for my children food, clean water, clothes, and medicine. The most painful feeling for me as a mother is not being able to protect my children or give them the life they deserve. That is why, with deep hesitation and heartbreak, I created a support link asking for help. I never imagined I would one day need to ask others for assistance, but the circumstances forced us into survival mode. Every single dollar donated is withdrawn immediately to provide food, water, and basic needs so my children and I can survive another day. For two long years, I have been asking for help and knocking on every door I can, carrying both shame and desperation in my heart. But I do this only for my children so they do not sleep hungry, and so they can still hold onto hope that life may become kinder one day. From the bottom of my heart, I am deeply grateful to every person who supported us, whether through a donation, sharing our story, or even a kind word and prayer. You cannot imagine how much your support means to us or how much strength it gives us to keep going despite everything. To everyone reading my story, I ask you kindly not to scroll past our pain. We are not asking for luxury or comfort we are simply trying to survive, to live with dignity, safety, and peace like every other human being. After God, you are our only hope. 🤍

Out of all the photos taken of Jeffrey Epstein's Estates, none show any Security Cameras, only Computers, Laptops, Servers, Hard Drives, Audio Devices, Photos, Documents, and File Folders. The amount of Hard Drives alone, some 2TB would be holding way more images and videos than the DOJ and FBI lead us to believe. Epstein had Security Rooms, Monitoring Stations, Servers Racks, Numerous Computers and Laptops, and no Security or Hidden Cameras ever photographed. Epstein's whole operation of Blackmail is now being used by the Trump Regime to bribe who ever Epstein's victims were. Release ALL the Epstein Files!

A social media post from a "California congressman" had diehard MAGA figures foaming at the mouth Saturday as they demanded he resign, only to learn hours later that he was not a real person.

"Rep. Jack Kimble" had sent Donald Trump supporters into a tailspin with an X post lamenting that he earns less than $200,000 a year despite "working nearly 140 days," threatening to leave Congress if he isn't "properly compensated" or allowed to trade stocks.

A MAGA congressional candidate was among those to fall for the ruse.

"WOW. A Californian congressman really said this. As if to justify their rampant personal corruption," Marcie Everhart fumed in a since-deleted post.

Everhart, who describes herself as a "hardcore America-First" candidate in the primary for Oklahoma's fourth district, pointed to Kimble as exactly why she was running for office.

"These jackwagons need to get out of the way for the wave of America First patriots like me EN ROUTE NOW," she wrote.

MAGA influencer Bethany O'Leary also amplified the scandal.

"The average American GRINDS 260+ days a year for a fraction of that, pays your salary with their taxes, and somehow doesn't threaten the country like a whiny toddler when they don't get a raise," she wrote.

"The real threat isn't you leaving. It's that entitled clowns like YOU are still there in the first place, living better than the people you claim to serve!!!! Stay. Quit. Rot in the private sector. America will be just fine without another swamp parasite."

O'Leary wasn't the only MAGA mind who fell for the posts, which included a picture of a large steak at a high-end restaurant with the caption, "Notice what you don't see-an appetizer #letustrade"

MAGA megaphone Gunther Eagleman reposted one of Kimble's posts with the caption "Jack should resign." He later deleted it.

As Kimble's post started to go viral, a community note was finally added clarifying that there is no 54th congressional district in California and no such congressman.

The only things that were true about the series of posts Kimble made was the base salary of a congressman and the comments by Speaker Mike Johnson just over a year ago, the apparent inspiration for the satirical spree.

The Johnson video taken at a press conference last May showed his response when he was asked about a plan to ban members of Congress from trading stocks and potentially benefitting from insider information.

In it, he says: "I don't think we should have any appearance of impropriety, but the other side of it, some people say, is well, look, the salary of congress has been frozen since 2009...over time, if you stay on this trajectory, you're going to have less qualified people who are willing to make the extreme sacrifice to run for congress."

The video began to resurface on the one-year anniversary of the statement, May 14. It has gathered steam since then and has been circulating online as Americans grapple with high inflation and skyrocketing gas prices.

Not everyone fell for Kimble's ruse. One user pointed out that to resign, he'd have to be elected first.

After the dust settled, Kimble issued another satirical post to apologize for the initial message that prompted an uproar.

"Evidently, when I was enjoying the weekend, my staffers went a little crazy. I told them to echo Mike Johnson, but this is tone deaf entitled stuff and there's no excuse for it," he wrote.

Separately, he said the controversial Johnson video was just a "deep fake" that had made all lawmakers "look bad," adding: "I hope Kash Patel will investigate and hold them accountable."
