President Trump’s Nuclear Posture Review released Friday shows greater willingness to use nukes first, according to the Union of Concerned Scientists.

The document said the U.S. will develop for deployment a “low-yield” nuclear warhead for submarine-launched ballistic missiles.
It also shows the U.S. plans to “strengthen the integration of nuclear and non-nuclear military planning.”
