JUST IN: This Is A Pretty Stunning Observation. Trump is celebrating a new Iran agreement centered on a commitment that Iran will never obtain a nuclear weapon. According to ABC's Jonathan Karl, that same commitment appeared in the very first paragraph of President Obama's nuclear deal more than a decade ago. Think about that. First came Obama's agreement. Then Trump tore it up. Now Trump is celebrating an agreement built around the same core promise.

The complete partisan politicization of ai safety is bad for safety, bad for America and will redound to the disadvantage of post Trump Rs
Three months ago, @DeptofWar kicked @AnthropicAI out of our building—forever. Every passing day proves why that was the right move. 🇺🇸

NEW: In 2018, white working-class voters approved of Trump on the economy by 30 points. Now they disapprove by as much as that margin in some polls. My piece on how Trump’s big blue-collar white vulnerability is reshaping the 2026 landscape nytimes.com/2026/06/13/us/po…

“AIPAC is playing with fire and runs the risk of burning our whole house down.” - @JeremyBenAmi
A just-released @NYTmag deep dive on AIPAC’s growing political backlash lands at a moment when more and more voters – including Jewish voters who care deeply about Israel – are rejecting the idea that the United States has to support Israel right-or-wrong. Americans want foreign policy rooted in diplomacy, democracy and peace. Not fear, litmus tests and unquestioning support for the Israeli government. nytimes.com/2026/06/12/magaz…

per @DylanByers, David Ellison and his deputies now believe his appointment of Bari Weiss was "too broad a mandate for someone with scant experience in television and corporate media management."
Jun 11
By all accounts, Bari Weiss could use some help running CBS News. But hiring the right executive with the right skills will be tricky, especially when the usual suspects are probably too cautious, myopic, or smart to join the gang. More from @DylanByers: puck.news/bari-weiss-cbs-new…

Am glad someone finally wrote this story
I asked Barak Ravid if he's become the boy who cries “Iran deal.” “I am covering the news, okay?” he said. “The boy doesn’t cry ‘Iran deal.’ The boy says the guys who are working on the Iran deal are crying ‘Iran deal.’” My latest. puck.news/barak-ravids-direc…

I'm sure all the people who spent years attacking Obama for giving "pallets of cash" to Iran will be just as outraged by Trump telling the UAE to give Iran $10 billion, right?
The UAE has agreed to release billions of dollars to Iran as Iran and the US move closer to a deal to end the war. Two regional sources told Reuters the UAE had agreed to release a total of $10 billion, more than $3 billion of which had already been delivered.

“A reporter’s job is to uncritically parrot what people in power tell them” is a defense of sorts i suppose

Avril is brilliant and Carnegie couldn’t have found a stronger leader. It’s great news that Avril can continue her mission-critical work at such an important institution.
We’re delighted to announce Avril Haines as the next president of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. One of the most respected national security leaders of her generation, Avril brings a deep commitment to public service and the values at the heart of our mission.
