The Trump Administration is prepared to consider a proposal that allows Iran “token” nuclear enrichment if it leaves no possible path to a bomb, a senior U.S. official told Axios.

“President Trump will be ready to accept a deal that would be substantive and that he can sell politically at home. If the Iranians want to prevent an attack they should give us an offer we can't refuse. The Iranians keep missing the window. If they play games there won't be a lot of patience,” the senior U.S. official said, with some of Trump's advisers having counseled patience from the President.

But at the same time, President Trump has been presented by the Pentagon with several military options, including some that involve directly targeting Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. “They have something for every scenario. One scenario takes out the ayatollah and his son and the mullahs,” an adviser to Trump said, referring to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and his son Mojtaba, who is seen as a potential successor. “What the president chooses no one knows. I don't think he knows.”

During an interview earlier this week with conservative commentator and influencer Tucker Carlson, U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, citing Genesis 15, stated that Israel and the Jewish people have a “biblical right” to most of the Middle East, including the entirety of Jordan, Lebanon, Syria and large parts of Egypt, Kuwait, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey, saying, “It would be fine if they took it all.”

Chances of U.S. strikes against Iran have skyrocketed in the last few days on Polymarket, as the ongoing military buildup in Europe and the Middle East approaches levels last seen prior to the 2003 Invasion of Iraq, with traders predicting that there is a 60% of strikes against Iran by the end of March.

Foreign Minister of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Seyed Araghchi, states the Iranian government has published a list of 3,117 "victims of recent terrorist operation", referring to the widespread protests that erupted across Iran in late December and early January of this year. This statement is following President Trump's statement yesterday placing the death toll closer to 32,000.

President Trump has announced that, after a "thorough, detailed and complete" review of yesterday's decision from the U.S. Supreme Court striking down his use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977 to levy broad tariffs against virtually every country that he is raising the 10% worldwide tariff announced during his press conference yesterday to 15% effective immediately.

At least 10 U.S. Air Force C-17A Globemaster IIIs are airborne from the east coast bound for Europe. Most of these flights originated at Fort Hood, Texas and may be related to the movement of further air-defense assets into the Middle East.

In a post earlier on Truth Social, President Donald J. Trump announced that the United States is sending a “hospital boat” to Greenland at the request of Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry, who is currently serving as the White House’s special envoy to Greenland, with the post containing a picture of the USNS Mercy (T-AH-19). Only problem is, both of the U.S. Navy’s hospital ships, USNS Mercy (T-AH-19) and her sister ship USNS Comfort (T-AH-20), are undergoing repairs at Alabama Shipyard in Mobile.

According to Axios, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham has urged President Donald J. Trump to follow through with strikes against Iran. The comments were made following the senator's trip to the Middle East where he visited key allies in the region, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Israel. However, Graham also said that select officials within the administration have continued to cautioned restraint and the prioritization of maximum pressure over kinetic actions. Graham said his advice was motivated by the opportunnity "to bring about historic change" in Iran. Graham, who is close to the president, has long held a more hardline view on Iran

Two Ilyushin Il-76TDs with the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations, SUM9105 and SUM912, landed earlier tonight at Sharjah International Airport in the United Arab Emirates, possibly pre-staging for the future evacuation of Russian diplomatic staff and other officials from the Middle East, as tensions in the region continue to rise between Iran and the United States.

Early Saturday, the USS Delaware (SSN-791), a Virginia-class nuclear-powered attack submarine on a routine patrol in the Northern Atlantic, was forced to surface off the coast of Greenland due to an onboard urgent medical emergency involving a Submariner with the U.S. Navy.
