A dramatic and unverified claim has surfaced in Washington, alleging that former US President Donald Trump attempted to access the US nuclear codes during an emergency meeting. Retired CIA analyst Larry Johnson disclosed this information on the YouTube program *Judging Freedom*, stating that General Dan Caine refused Trump's request, leading to heightened tensions within the White House. This incident follows previous reports of Trump's exclusion from a Situation Room meeting during a critical operation concerning Iran, as senior officials expressed concerns over his temperament affecting the mission. The backdrop of these allegations is the escalating conflict between the United States and Iran, which began with joint US-Israeli airstrikes on Iranian targets. Although a temporary ceasefire is currently in effect, no long-term agreement has been reached, and Iran's chief negotiator, Mohammed Bagher Qalibaf, has indicated that negotiations will not proceed under threats, reflecting ongoing strain in relations.
