According to CBS, citing U.S. officials with knowledge on the matter, discussions are ongoing regarding contingency plans to retrieve Iranian nuclear material.

I'm seeing a lot of fake information about a potential deal to reopen the Strait and end Iran's nuclear weapons program.

The deal is structured to ensure that the US and its allies concerns are prioritized, and that if the Islamic Republic of Iran meets its obligations, then economic benefits will flow to them and to the entire region. This deal has the potential to remake the region and lead to lasting peace.
I've noticed a couple of bizarre things in the reporting over the last few hours. First, people who (rightly) said Donald Trump was a historic president a month ago now criticizing a deal based on unconfirmed media reports. Second, people who say you can't trust a word said by the IRGC who apparently believe anonymously sourced social media posts.
The president is going to get us a good outcome, one way or the other.
