Former US Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has alleged in a recent X post that officials within the Trump administration are considering the use of nuclear weapons against Iran. Greene asserted that these discussions occurred during high-level strategy meetings and accused the administration of moving towards a lower threshold for nuclear weapon usage.
She also argued that US intelligence assessments do not indicate Iran is close to developing nuclear capabilities, and claimed the Trump administration instead relies on warnings from Israel.

These claims emerge amidst ongoing tensions between the US and Iran, with the Strait of Hormuz continuing to be a major point of friction in the conflict that began on February 28.
