💨 Abstract

The president and the Washington area were dealing with immediate concerns in June 2025. A second ground stop was in place at Dulles International. This halt coincided with U.S. military action in Iran, marking a significant escalation in the Middle East. After weeks of speculation, Donald Trump decided to support Israeli attacks on Iran's nuclear program, making it one of the riskiest foreign policy choices in recent U.S. history.
