Tension continues between Iran and America.

Former US Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has made several claims about the Trump administration's ongoing tensions with Iran. She claims that Trump administration officials are discussing the potential use of nuclear weapons against Iran.

He alleges that the issue has been raised in high-level strategy meetings during the ongoing conflict between Washington and Tehran.

Greene claimed in an X-post that these discussions are genuine. The administration has been accused of having a low threshold for using nuclear weapons.

She said US intelligence agencies' assessments do not indicate Iran is close to developing a nuclear weapon and accused the Trump administration of relying on Israeli warnings. Greene, however, did not provide any evidence.

The White House has not responded to his allegations. Tensions between Iran and the US over the Strait of Hormuz remain high, having been ongoing since February 28th.

Donald Trump continues to exert pressure on Iran

Trump is maintaining pressure on Tehran. He continues to demand concessions from Iran. Previously, on August 14th, Donald Trump stated that he would soon declare Hormuz a US territory. This step would be taken only after the US defeats Iran.

Earlier this month, Trump described the ongoing talks with Tehran as Iran's last chance, warning that military action would be taken if Iran failed to reach an agreement.

Trump has repeatedly stated that Iran should not be allowed to acquire nuclear weapons. Greene's allegations have raised questions about whether the Trump administration is discussing nuclear options. The Strait of Hormuz has become a major flashpoint between Washington and Tehran. Meanwhile, tanker traffic through the waterway has been significantly reduced following attacks on commercial vessels.
