It's April 2, welcome to U.S. News Today, powered by AI, I'm Cory with the story. President Trump reportedly asked military leaders for a plan to grab nearly 1,000 pounds of highly enriched uranium from inside Iran, showing, his team's hard line on keeping Tehran from ever getting a nuclear weapon. The Pentagon put together a complex operation that would send U.S. forces deep into enemy territory, with excavation gear, to dig it up, and even A, temporary runway to fly the radioactive stuff out. White House officials say they've presented the plans of Trump recently, but no call has been made yet. It's just about giving the president options. Trump has stressed publicly and privately that Iran cannot have a nuke, period. Conservatives are pushing for it, calling it a smart way to neuter Iran's program without a long war, while critics worry about the polls showing. Americans against sending ground troops into the fight. Trump has ranked this as one of the toughest special ops ever, needing thousands of elite

commandos, engineers, and nuke pros against Iranian missiles, and drones and underground sites like Isbahan and Atans, but pulling it off could end the threat for good without endless conflict.
