🇺🇸🇮🇷⚡️ — One source to CNN reports that President Trump has ruled out sending in ground forces to invade Iran. President Trump remains focused on attempting to present a win to the American people without overly negatively affecting diplomacy with Iran.

One source to CNN reports these strikes are intended to create an off-ramp, allowing Trump to claim a win. CENTCOM appears to be preparing for retaliation by not replacing some servicemembers when troop rotations occur in a few weeks, lowering American personnel present in the CENTCOM area-of-responsibility.
