Attorney General Todd Blanche has been living on a U.S. military base since early 2026, according to multiple sources who spoke with NewsNation. The report makes Blanche the latest cabinet official to be relocated to a military base due to threats from leftist and foreign threats, including those from Iran, throughout the president’s second term.

The list of officials includes Secretary of State Marco Rubio, War Secretary Pete Hegseth, White House chief of staff Stephen Miller, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. Blanche also receives executive protection from the FBI as part of his role.

His predecessor, former Attorney General Pam Bondi, was also moved to heavily guarded quarters at a military installation in the Washington, D.C., area after receiving threats. The FBI declined to comment to NewsNation, which said it had also contacted the Justice Department.

Available reporting does not specifically attribute Blanche’s residence on a military base to Iranian threats, though other candidates have been named in connection with such plots. Those threats have been linked most directly in recent accounts to Bessent’s relocation. The New York Times reported that Bessent moved from his Washington-area home to a military base after Iranian threats against his life.

U.S. officials concluded in recent weeks that Iranian plotting against current and former American officials had reached a more advanced stage, based in part on intelligence about threats to Bessent, according to people familiar with the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity. The severity of the threats against Bessent was not immediately clear.

Bessent has led the administration’s economic pressure campaign against Iran since August, involving tougher sanctions and restrictions on trade routes under Operation Economic Outcast. A senior administration official told Fox News that “The move shows that Treasury’s strategy regarding Iran is working because Iran is trying to get to the architect of that strategy.”

The official added, “Threats against Sec. Bessent reached more than an advanced stage, which is why he and his family made the move.”

Security concerns for Bessent increased after a Wall Street Journal article published an aerial photograph of the Georgetown mansion he purchased for $12.5 million shortly after confirmation in January 2025, allowing the property to be geolocated. “After The Wall Street Journal published an article featuring an online photo that allowed the location of the secretary’s Georgetown home to be geo-located, security concerns began to increase which have now forced the secretary to relocate to a military base for his safety,” one source familiar with the matter told CBS News.

“The news media has an obligation to act responsibly amid growing threats against public officials,” he added.

Other officials had relocated earlier for varying reasons. Rubio and Hegseth have lived as neighbors on Generals’ Row at Fort McNair in Washington, D.C., a site traditionally used for senior military officers. Miller and his family moved to military housing in late 2025 after protests outside their Arlington, Virginia, home, where their address had been publicized.

Former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem also lived at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling after publication of details about her prior residence.
