@drfous @LizSmither2020 @learning2much @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard Cope harder, you're not bleeding yet. He said it, Hegseth said it, it keeps being said.

.@SenOssoff: "Was it the assessment of the Intelligence Community that there was an 'imminent nuclear threat' posed by the Iranian regime?"
@DNIGabbard: "The only person who can determine what is and is not a threat is the President—"
Ossoff: "False."

@LizSmither2020 @learning2much @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard I think people that make claims should be able to back them up with evidence.

@drfous @learning2much @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard You think people are going to go through YouTube clips or something to find it for you? I’m not. Think what you want

@LizSmither2020 @learning2much @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard Have you found that quote yet where Trump said the nuke threat was imminent? Or just obfuscating?
English

@drfous @learning2much @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard Repeating the 47 years line eh? Also, don’t forget it’s short term pain for long term gain. And Trump’s approval rating is 100%!

@learning2much @LizSmither2020 @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard We weren't in negotiations with them demanding that they give up the nukes until recently. The dynamic changed. We finally have a CiC that will end their 47 year reign of death on Americans. Maybe more pallets of cash would have worked, amiright?

@drfous @LizSmither2020 @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard they’ve had those for over 20 years and the ones that hit our bases in the gulf for even longer. if THAT was the “imminent threat” why have they not even launched one since this war started let alone at any time in the last 25 years?
English

@learning2much @LizSmither2020 @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard They apparently have missiles that can reach europe. That puts all of our bases, embassies and other installations within range.
English

@drfous @LizSmither2020 @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard dude, it sounds like you are arguing that there actually was no imminent threat. I agree. Or are you saying there wasn’t a nuclear threat but their ICBMs were an imminent threat? From reports they are closer to being able to having a nuke than ICBMs that could reach the US

@Noethnicity @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard Missile attacks against our bases in the region would be one potential.

@notadirtycommie @LizSmither2020 @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard You can't differentiate thoughts and facts. Got it.

@drfous @LizSmither2020 @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard No wonder you worship a pedo billionaire when you need Grok to tell you what to think. You are literally and objectively a failed excuse of a human.

@lovelycoconut @LizSmither2020 @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard Other imminent threats? Hard concept, I know.

@learning2much @LizSmither2020 @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard What were Trump's words? Not someone else's paraphrase.
English

Grok's verdict
No, Donald Trump did not explicitly say that Iran posed an imminent nuclear threat.In his February 28, 2026, video statement announcing U.S. (and Israeli) military operations against Iran, Trump said the objective was "to defend the American people by eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime." He emphasized preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, stating they had attempted to rebuild their nuclear program (after prior U.S. strikes) and were developing long-range missiles that "could soon reach the American homeland." He repeatedly stressed that Iran "can never have a nuclear weapon" and that the actions would "ensure that Iran does not obtain a nuclear weapon."However, he did not directly describe the nuclear aspect itself as "imminent." The "imminent threats" phrasing referred more broadly to the regime's activities, including missiles and general menace to U.S. interests, troops, and allies. In other remarks around that time (e.g., later interviews), Trump claimed Iran was very close to a nuclear weapon or on the verge of one, saying things like they "would have had a nuclear weapon within two weeks" or were "a month away," and that an armed Iran would be a dire threat—but again, not framing the nuclear weaponization or use as immediately imminent in the sense of days/weeks away at the moment of the strikes.

@drfous @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard He did on day ONE. Since then, he has changed the narrative almost daily. The latest is missiles. The amount of derangement from MAGA is nauseating.

@LizSmither2020 @cspan @SenOssoff @DNIGabbard Not according to Grok. Feel free to post up an example.

Is the goal to eliminate the Iranian regime or free the Iranian people or degrade their nuclear capability or degrade the conventional weapons capability or eliminate their regional hegemony or to cut off their oil supply to China or to help Israel or what?
The lack of any coherent message seems to suggest the lack of any coherent objective.
English

Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war. Americans do not want this. They do not want another war in pursuit of regime change. They want relief from the affordability crisis. They want peace.
I am focused on making sure that every New Yorker is safe. I have been in contact with our Police Commissioner and emergency management officials. We are taking proactive steps, including increasing coordination across agencies and enhancing patrols of sensitive locations out of an abundance of caution.
Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city — you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders. You will be safe here.
