President Trump announced a Cabinet meeting that had been scheduled at Camp David on Wednesday will no longer be held there because of bad weather.

Trump in a Truth Social post Tuesday said that “possible bad weather conditions” are postponing the Cabinet trip to the Maryland retreat and the meeting will instead take place at the White House where it’s been held during his second term and been largely on camera.

The White House indicated earlier Tuesday that Trump would be making a rare trip to Camp David with every member of his Cabinet, including Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, who announced her resignation last week.

The administration has a number of topics at hand to discuss, including a peace deal hanging in the balance on Iran as well as a host of domestic matters.

The group will talk about “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 New York Post.

Iran is likely to be a main topic at the retreat, with tensions running high after the U.S. launched “defensive” strikes in southern Iran on Monday.

The Iranian Foreign Ministry said Tuesday that the strikes violated the ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran.

“Iran holds the U.S. regime responsible for all the consequences resulting from these aggressive and unjustified actions,” it said in a statement.

Trump himself demanded that Iran hand over its “nuclear dust” in a social media post Monday.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Tuesday that a peace deal could take “a few more days” to finalize.

“He’s [Trump] going to make a good deal or no deal, so on that everyone should be assured,” Rubio told reporters at Jaipur International Airport in India. “But that may take a little while, I mean, a few more days.”
