This is not part of the agreement. He is making this up. Iran agrees to give up NOTHING on their nuclear program in this deal.

I don't know, it'd be hard to bomb any bigger than this.

I love this. The Obamas honoring Nancy Pelosi with a garden in her name is so well deserved. Without Nancy Pelosi, there would be no Affordable Care Act.

Republican Senator Bill Cassidy slams Trump’s Iran deal, calling it “The worst foreign policy blunder in decades.”

I'm saying this isn't a document that is capable of being fulfilled in a way that the people who signed it are able to actually effectuate.

Right, and what distinguishes it from an executive agreement is that executive agreements can be fulfilled under existing US law without creating new obligations. This definitely bumps into existing US laws!

F) Israel, as a party that isn't signing the deal, isn't technically bound and can't be bound by the language in the document. This is contrary to the expectations of Iran, who will treat offensive actions by Israel as being in breach (which while abhorrent, are not breaches). This is doomed.

E) It's probably illegal. I don't think the President intends to send this to the Senate for ratification. There is no way on earth the United States is capable of fulfilling these terms without involving Congress. This is the dumbest possible ending to the dumbest possible war.

B) Note the use of the term "agreed." This is something that signals intent to be legally bound, as opposed to "intend to," etc. C) If this is not Senate-ratified, then this almost CERTAINLY violates the anti-deficiency act, specifically the commitment of 300 billion dollars in U.S. resources.

Ok, so quick observations of the Iran deal. Background: I used to write international agreements and de-crapify science MOUs for a living. A) This appears to be a full-fledged treaty. There is language that EXPLICITLY STATES that the parties are going to be bound under a UNSC resolution.

Just to add, for those who don't remember: The President "shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, ***provided two thirds*** of the Senators present concur." (US Constitution, Article II, Section 2, Clause 2)

D) Iran basically agrees not to advance a nuclear weapons program (it agreed to this frequently) in exchange for control of the strait, 300 billion dollars, complete and urgent sanctions relief, immediate Treasury waivers, etc. It's not clear what Iran DIDN'T get from this deal other than ponies.

Ahead of the Juneteenth public opening of the Obama Presidential Center, former President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama gathered supporters and contributors for a thank-you celebration.

To everyone who helped bring the Obama Presidential Center to life, thank you. Michelle and I are so grateful for all your dedication and hard work over the years. I got a little teary-eyed tonight thinking about my mother-in-law, Marian Robinson.

Bloomberg has what it says is the actual MOU text. It doesn’t sound like an unconditional surrender: “ensuring financing of $300 billion… “ending all types of sanctions facing the Islamic Republic… “frozen funds & assets of the Islamic Republic of Iran will be released and made fully available”

A note to MAGA Republicans mocking James Talarico's masculinity: Here is princess on her floral bedding:

President Trump said on Saturday that he would nominate James McDonald to be the next U.S. attorney in the Southern District of New York, again choosing one of his personal lawyers for one of the nation’s most powerful legal positions.

They tried to hide but I got em anyway

Trump lies constantly and he is desperate for the Iran war to be over. So desperate that he’s giving Iran 20 times the money Obama did, and getting nothing in return, except an open strait that Iran will charge a “maintenance fee” to all ships. Well done, bozo

So… an autopen?

Trump will brag that any MOU he signs with Iran will include a line from Iran promising never to builds nukes. Yet that was also in the JCPOA, which said: “Iran reaffirms that under no circumstances will Iran ever seek, develop or acquire any nuclear weapon.” Trump tore up the JCPOA & caused a war.

It's going to take a lot more than scaffolding and power tools to get Donald Trump's name out of the Epstein files.
