He is one of a number of senior figures in the Trump administration including the secretary of state, Marco Rubio, and the new chief of staff, Stephen Miller, to leave their home to live on a military base or protected housing.

The US national intelligence chief, Jay Clayton, said last month that Tehran had “substantially increased” its efforts to target Americans in the Middle East and beyond.

These include intensifying the targeting of current and former US officials such as Bessent, the NYT reported on Tuesday, citing three sources familiar with the matter.

Whataboutism is changing the topic. Shit on one side doesn’t excuse shit on another. That’s lazy Democrat speak.

    It's not whataboutism if I'm not redirecting away from your target, but merely expanding it to include those you deliberately left out. Your response is "lazy" thinking & obviously biased rage that's too laser focused on the target of your hatred to care about the full truth of the matter.
