Vice President JD Vance is speaking out on Iran's nuclear capabilities after President Trump slammed down his intel chief Tuesday morning for saying Iran was not building a nuclear weapon.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, President Trump publicly dismissed his own Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, on Iran's nuclear capabilities. The bold rebuke came during an early morning Air Force One gaggle on Tuesday, as Trump returned to Washington.

"I don't care what she said," Trump said while being interviewed by CNN's Kaitlan Collins. "I think they were very close to having one."

As TGP's Cassandra MacDonald reported, Gabbard testified back in March that the intel community continues to assess that Iran has not resumed trying to build a nuclear weapon since the program was suspended by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in 2003.

After the blow-up, Vance decided to weigh in with his own thoughts on Iran.

"Look, I'm seeing this from the inside, and am admittedly biased towards our president (and my friend), but there's a lot of crazy stuff on social media, so I wanted to address some things directly on the Iran issue," Vance wrote on X.

Vance, who is proudly America-first, pointed out that Trump has remained very consistent regarding his opposition to Iran having a nuclear weapon.

First, POTUS has been amazingly consistent, over 10 years, that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. Over the last few months, he encouraged his foreign policy team to reach a deal with the Iranians to accomplish this goal. The president has made clear that Iran cannot have uranium enrichment. And he said repeatedly that this would happen one of two ways–the easy way or the "other" way.

The vice-president went on to clear up some confusion regarding Iranian nuclear proliferation. He noted that Iran has always been allowed to have nuclear energy to benefit its citizens, but Iran has repeatedly violated their obligations to the International Atomic Energy Agency because the regime has designs on a nuclear weapon.

I've seen a lot of confusion over the issue of "civilian nuclear power" and "uranium enrichment." These are distinct issues. Iran could have civilian nuclear power without enrichment, but Iran rejected that. Meanwhile, they've enriched uranium far above the level necessary for any civilian purpose.
