President Donald Trump is receiving an intelligence briefing at the White House with Vice President JD Vance, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and Gen. Dan Caine, according to NewsNation correspondent Kellie Meyer. The briefing has delayed Trump's planned departure for Dallas, Texas.
The meeting comes amid heightened US-Iran tensions, with the administration weighing military options against Tehran. The Zioneer has previously covered the White House's national security deliberations around Iran, including a Situation Room meeting chaired by Trump on June 10 and a CENTCOM two-week strike plan reported to be on the President's desk. Trump's late departure for Dallas suggests the briefing may involve time-sensitive developments.
