Watch: Ossoff grills Gabbard on whether Iran poses an "imminent nuclear threat"

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard faced questioning from Sen. Jon Ossoff about Iran's nuclear threat level, with Gabbard telling the senator that the intelligence community assessed Iran's nuclear enrichment program was "obliterated" in 2025 strikes. Ossoff pressed whether Iran still posed an "imminent nuclear threat," raising questions about the scope and effectiveness of those operations. The exchange reflects ongoing debate within Congress over the Trump administration's approach to Iran's nuclear capabilities and whether military action has sufficiently degraded the program. Gabbard's assessment will likely influence how lawmakers evaluate the administration's Iran policy and defense priorities in coming appropriations and oversight votes.
