A secret, high-stakes exit from last month’s NATO summit in Turkey unfolded as the former president was covertly flown out on a different aircraft than publicly shown — all to evade an alleged Iranian assassination threat. To maintain cover, he appeared to board Air Force One but instead transferred to a smaller plane, leaving journalists and staff in the dark. The White House confirmed they use every tool to protect the president, while lawmakers demand a congressional probe over what some call an unprecedented security breach. The ex-president, who’s long warned of threats, was later photographed disembarking Air Force One in England — part of a calculated ruse before boarding the real one for his return to Washington.
