President Donald Trump will convene a rare Cabinet meeting at Camp David Wednesday as negotiations with Iran enter a critical phase.
All Cabinet members are expected to attend the meeting, first reported by the New York Post and confirmed by Fox News, including outgoing Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.
The gathering comes as the administration weighs next steps in high-stakes negotiations aimed at securing a broader agreement with Tehran amid a fraying ceasefire.
Trump in recent days has suggested the sides are nearing a potential breakthrough, while Iranian officials have publicly pushed back on claims that a deal is imminent.
Camp David historically has been reserved for major national security and diplomatic deliberations. Trump hosted meetings on the property 15 times during his first term as president.
On June 8, 2025, Trump hosted Cabinet members and senior officials at Camp David for discussions on Iran and Gaza. Weeks later on June 22, 2025, Trump directed U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities.

At the meeting, officials will discuss “recent successes of the administration including economy and small business wins, Task Force to Eliminate Fraud highlights, and foreign policy updates,” a White House official told the Post.
Trump repeatedly has warned that military action remains on the table if talks collapse, even as administration officials continue to publicly express optimism about diplomacy.
The U.S. conducted limited strikes on Iran Monday which they described as defensive, aimed at mine-laying vessels and missile launchers near the Strait of Hormuz.

The meeting also comes amid growing debate inside Trump’s political coalition over Iran policy, with some Republican lawmakers warning against deeper U.S. military involvement in the region even as the administration maintains that military pressure remains an option if diplomacy fails.
