Iran's 2026 FIFA World Cup opener against New Zealand at SoFi Stadium became a politically charged spectacle as anti-regime protests, banned flags, diaspora tensions and the promise of soccer's unifying power converged in Los Angeles.
President Donald Trump was flattered by Middle East leaders into agreeing to a framework to end the war with Iran in a simple and very egotistical way, MS NOW's Chris Hayes agreed in a conversation with Iranian political analyst Trita Parsi.Specifically, Trump was persuaded into believing that he had persuaded Iran to take a deal better than the former Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) — the multilateral nuclear deal brokered by former President Barack Obama — even though many aspects of the deal are considerably more conciliatory to Iran."I think the one thing that does seem the north star for him ... when the Omani foreign minister flew to the U.S. to appear on the Sunday shows in a last-ditch effort to stop this war from happening right when there were negotiations going on," said Hayes. "He understood it, too, because it's not a very complicated psychology. He's basically on TV the weekend before the war starts being like, it's better than Obama, it's better than Obama."The bottom line, said Hayes, is that "that benchmark [to end the war] can be whatever it means for the old man's ego," even if it's not a meaningful policy accomplishment.Parsi agreed, saying that Trump "will create his own reality here."Additionally, he said, it's not all a bad thing, as there are genuinely some parts of what Trump is pursuing that are stronger than JCPOA was."For instance, in the Obama deal, the Iranians would only have a stockpile of 300 kilos of low-enriched uranium on their soil. At any point," said Parsi. "You need 1,200 for a bomb. Whenever they reach the 300 level, it would be shipped out. That was a very good deal." By contrast, he said, in the February agreement Trump wants to base the current framework on, "they would have zero stockpile. Whatever they produce, they would immediately turn into fuel [rods]. They would never keep a stockpile at all."That said, he added, "Was it worth all of this? Absolutely not. In fact, that was already achieved before the war." - YouTube youtu.be
President Donald Trump denied claims that the United States would pay Iran as part of a peace deal. The details of the peace agreement with Iran haven’t been made public, but one reported detail was a $300 billion reconstruction fund that would be paid for by the U.S. or its allies. Trump firmly shot the […]
Political analysts and observers swiftly fact-checked President Donald Trump on Monday after he made a false claim about the recent deal he struck with the Iranian regime that could lead to a future peace agreement. Trump posted on Truth Social that reports of the U.S. "paying Iran 300 million Dollars is Fake News, put out by the Dumocrats!!!" That statement seemed to conflict with what Trump's vice president, JD Vance, said during an interview with Ed O’Keefe of CBS News on Monday morning that Iran "could have access" to a $300 billion reconstruction fund, if it meets the obligations of the Memorandum of Understanding that the two countries announced over the weekend. Vance later told CNN's Jake Tapper that the deal contemplates a "significant economic package" that could "transform" how Iran participates in the global economy. Trump's claims were swiftly fact-checked online. "Because it’s actually 300 billion Dollars. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" Scott Robertson, international digital editor at MeidasTouch, posted on X. "If it was fake news, why did JD Vance admit it on national TV this morning?" progressive news outlet The Tennessee Holler posted on X. "JD Vance, the 'architect of the deal,' confirmed it earlier today," Sawyer Hackett, a political strategist, posted on X.
