WASHINGTON – Nuclear negotiations between the United States and Iran are set to continue in Geneva on Tuesday. Diplomats from each country have said they're not entirely sure if a deal on Iran's nuclear program and economic sanctions can be reached, but for now, they're willing to try. In the meantime, each side is putting military forces on standby. On Monday, Iranian state media released a video of Iran's Revolutionary Guard conducting naval exercises in the Strait of Hormuz, a waterway essential to oil trade. Within hours, U.S. Central Command posted images of squadron exercises on the deck of the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier stationed in the Middle East.

The President is spending the weekend at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida. "One cannot accept the notion that Iran has to do certain things without the other side committing itself to do their share. It has to be a give-and-take. That is what compromise is all about," Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Majid Takht-Ravanchi told BBC. The objective of the U.S. is to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon, in large part by blocking Iran from enriching uranium, which it has already done to a near weapons-grade level. Trump has insisted that Iran cease all enrichment. Takht-Ravanchi said "zero enrichment is not on the table." Another point of friction: Iran's ballistic missile program. Secretary of State Marco Rubio previously said in order for these talks to "actually lead to anything meaningful," this needs to be part of the conversation. Iranian leaders said this is not up for discussion, viewing it as a national defense issue.According to CBS News, Trump told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in December that if talks with Tehran fail, he would support Israeli strikes on Iran's ballistic missile program.Two employees at Fulton Elementary School are on administrative leave after an 11-year-old with autism left campus unnoticed and was later found blocks away.A young soldier natively from Harrisburg was one of three people killed in a North Carolina wreck over the weekend.The Franklin County Coroner's Office confirmed it was dispatched to Sunset Boulevard and Valley Pine Court in Greene Township after a possible shooting Monday.A Leola woman is facing charges after police say she stole several stole credit cards from a Planet Fitness locker room and tried to use them at the store.
