White House Dismisses Iran Drone Threat to California

0:00It's March 30, I'm Cory with the story. This is entertainment and celebrity news today, driven by AI and built for the culture. White House officials are shutting down reports of an Iranian drone threat aimed at California, saying there's zero credible danger to the homeland. Right now, the buzz started from an FBI tip back in early February, hinting Iran might launch unmanned aerial vehicles from a ship off the U.S. coast toward the Golden State, but it lacked any solid details on timing or targets, and stayed fully unverified. Press Secretary Caroline Levitt blasted media outlets for twisting the alert's meaning, while California Governor Gavin Newsom made clear he's not. Aware of any imminent threats, though the states locked and loaded for emergencies. Trump chimed in, too, noting the tip is under investigation amid all the global noise. With tensions boiling over from recent U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran, plus their pushback, feds and state teams keep sharing intel daily to stay ahead, without raising false alarms.
