well, this wins for most depressing piece of the day
Mohamed Hussein went to the Texas Republican convention to convince himself he had a place in the GOP.
He left in tears. What he found was a party that didn’t want him, that told him to leave the country.

Dying a bit here. All these provisions being touted as major successes are laid out explicitly in the jcpoa
.@VP: "One of the core parts of the agreement is that the IAEA and the United States are going to help Iran destroy the highly enriched stockpile, and that's something that's spelled out very clearly in the MOU."

a fun element of these background briefings that these senior officials do anonymously is that you can easily tell who it is. In this case the tell here is the use of the word "cool" which VP Vance used later in the day on camera to Jake Tapper in a nearly verbatim line
5/They said "one of the really cool things and interesting things about this entire process is that we actually have a direct relationship with a number of people at the highest levels of the Iranian government. That really hasn't happened in 47 years of our relationship with Iran." This is not a huge thing, but it suggests they haven't really done their research on US-Iran relations. (See: JCPOA talks.)

here is Vance talking about the cool elements of the Iran negotiations this afternoon
x.com/Acyn/status/2066631317…
Vance: The coolest thing about the progress we’ve made over the last few weeks is that you’re seeing people within the Iranian system—senior leadership, even IRGC officials—say, “You know what? We recognize the way that we’ve done business with the US for 47 years is a mistake. Let’s try something else.”

The autopen jokes are fine. But the honest question here is... will we see the text?
Trump and Vice President JD Vance both virtually signed the Memorandum of Understanding with Iran, a senior US administration official says
Iran’s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf signed the document for the Iranian side, the official said.
A formal signing ceremony will still occur on Friday

Pretty solid that "Iran reaffirms that under no circumstances will Iran ever seek, develop or acquire any nuclear weapons."

looks like Iran will also export enriched uranium
"During the 15 year period, and as Iran gradually moves to meet international qualification standards for nuclear fuel produced in Iran, it will keep its uranium stockpile under 300 kg of up to 3.67% enriched uranium hexafluoride (UF6) or the equivalent in other chemical forms. The excess quantities are to be sold based on international prices and delivered to the international buyer in return for natural uranium delivered to Iran, or are to be down-blended to natural uranium level."

Will there be a deal? Will there not be a deal? Who knows.
I'll just note, two weeks ago a senior adm official said we were 95% there. Today they're telling the same conservative voices we are 75% there. I'm not a math major but that is not necessarily progress...
