    Versailles, Vance, and the Iran Deal
    Jun 18 2026
    The G7 summit has wrapped and Trump signed the Iran MOU at the Palace of Versailles — yes, that Versailles. Politico’s Myah Ward was on the ground at the G7 all week and shares how much Iran and the U.S. dominated conversation at the summit. Plus, not all Republicans are happy with the MOU and some are pointing blame at JD Vance for a bad deal. And across the Atlantic, Britain may get its seventh prime minister in a decade.

  • Who is really winning in the Iran deal?

    Who is really winning in the Iran deal?
    Jun 17 2026
    President Donald Trump is expected to speak later this morning, likely touting the Iran agreement. This comes after Bloomberg published an unconfirmed draft of the memorandum that raises some serious questions. Later today, Fed Chair Kevin Warsh will preside over his first Open Market Committee meeting, where news will likely paint a less than peachy vision of high inflation rates. Speaking of peaches, Georgia’s runoff results mean a Rep. Mike Collins v. Sen. Jon Ossoff showdown come November. And finally, Jay Clayton heads to a confirmation hearing before the Senate Intelligence Committee, less than a week after lawmakers formally received his nomination to serve as director of national intelligence.

    The EPA isn’t here to fight climate change (with Lee Zeldin) | The Conversation
    Jun 14 2026
    At POLITICO’s Energy Summit, Dasha presses EPA administrator Lee Zeldin on rising gas prices, the war in Iran, Trump’s energy dominance agenda, coal, AI data centers, and whether the EPA has a responsibility to address climate change. Zeldin defends his approach, arguing that the EPA can protect the environment while growing the economy and rejects the idea that his agency should lead the fight against climate change – unless Congress tells him to.

Meanwhile, just hours after declaring strikes on Iran for a third night in a row, Trump canceled the attacks, citing a breakthrough in negotiations.
