The Trump administration will brief congressional leaders on Thursday about the Middle East amid warnings that Iran might be planning attacks on U.S. people and facilities in the region

Pelosi is also seeking a broader congressional briefing on Iran but so far that has not been confirmed since she first put in the request eight days ago, according to a Democratic source.

“That is on top of four months asking them for the classified briefing on North Korea," Pelosi added. "So, again, in many ways they are trying to deter us from having our role.” Some senators heard from intelligence community about Iran and other topics on Wednesday morning. Most said they needed a lot more information.
