WASHINGTON (TNND) — Condoleezza Rice, who served as a state secretary under former President George W. Bush, was seen going to the White House on Friday, according to reports.
“Condoleezza Rice was just seen walking into the White House,” CNN Senior White House correspondent Kristen Holmes wrote on X.
While serving in the Bush administration, Rice was the National Security Advisor from 2001 to 2005. She was also the Secretary of State from 2005 to 2009 and had a big role in the “War on Terror.”
When asked about the situation in Iran, she said that President Donald Trump’s administration was trying to neuter the military strength of Iran.
“If you can render Iran essentially incapable of military action against us and against our allies, that’s worthy,” she said in an interview with Fox News.
“And I think what they’re trying to do is to neuter Iran as a military power in the region.”
Over the weekend, the U.S. and Israel conducted joint strikes on Iran due to fear of the Middle Eastern country building missiles.
Iran has retaliated, and other countries have been hit as a result. Americans have been advised to leave the Middle East.

“For 47 long years, the expansionist and Islamic regime in Tehran has waged a savage, one-sided war against America,” Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told reporters earlier this week. “They didn’t always declare it openly, except for their constant chants of ‘death to America.’ They did it through the blood of our people – car bombs in Beirut, rocket attacks on our ships, murders at our embassies, roadside bombs in Iraq and Afghanistan.”
