  "account": "On August 2, 2026, during an interview on Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan, Republican Congressman Mike Turner of Ohio discussed Iran's nuclear ambitions and cyber attacks on U.S. soil. Turner, who serves on the Armed Services committee, expressed dissatisfaction with the level of information the administration provides to Congress about the ongoing conflict, stating that both the House and Senate have recognized the need for the Pentagon to share more details. The president recently claimed Iran is untrustworthy and dishonest, and that diplomacy may lead to a flawed deal, but Turner disagreed, emphasizing the importance of Iran abandoning its nuclear ambitions and reinstating open access to the Strait of Hormuz. Turner also addressed the FBI warning about cyber attacks on U.S. water utilities, blaming Iran for previous attacks, but stated that Congress has not been officially informed about the current attacks.",
