Summary
Randy Feenstra, Zach Lahn, Graham Platner, Trevor Williams, and Jill Biden headline today's A.M. Update. Trump tells Lara Trump the Iran deal is close but if it falls apart the Department of War starts back up, while Scott Bessent defines finishing the job as simply reopening the Strait and keeping uranium out of Iranian hands. Anti-Antifa rioters attack police on horseback outside the Delaney Hall ICE facility in Newark as Mayor Ras Baraka finally imposes a curfew. The Washington Nationals fire director of community relations Sean Hudson after an O'Keefe Media Group sting catches him admitting the team deliberately excluded Catholic pitcher Trevor Williams from social media because of his faith. Graham Platner's Senate campaign in Maine adds another scandal as his wife confirms reports that she told the campaign about his sexually explicit texts with other women. Jill Biden smirks through a CBS interview claiming she saw no signs of cognitive decline in her husband. Aaron closes with a deeply personal look at the Iowa governor's race, where Trump's surprise endorsement of Randy Feenstra set Turning Point Action against the White House, and why losing Charlie Kirk means there is nobody left to broker that conversation. Subscribe and listen every weekday morning.

| 0:10.3 | Next on the AM update. |
| 0:15.3 | President Trump had an interview with Lara Trump, his daughter-in-law. |
| 0:19.5 | Of course, the topic of Iran came up. President Trump, |
| 0:22.8 | of course, had that meeting on Friday, supposedly, where he met with his national security |
| 0:27.8 | advisors. They were going to make a final determination on this apparent deal with Iran. That has come and gone. |
| 0:34.3 | It's been over 48 hours since that meeting has come and gone. And over the weekend, President Trump told his daughter-in-law this. So what does a good deal look like for you? Well, first of all, there's no deal that's good enough because the media will cover it. We're making a great deal. We're going to make it a great deal. Or we'll just go back and finish it off militarily. But this would go faster. It's probably better on a humane standpoint. |
| 0:57.1 | There's something nice about it also. You know, save a lot of lives. Whether it's the other side or not, |
| 1:02.1 | you save a lot of lives. But we're close to a very good deal. And if we can make it good, |
| 1:06.7 | otherwise we just start up with the Department of War, as we call it. And it's been very successful. |
| 1:12.1 | You saw Venezuela. |
| 1:13.1 | It was a one-day win, and this is really a win already. |
| 1:16.7 | We've defeated their military, essentially defeated their military. |
| 1:20.6 | I would rather get a deal because we can open this trade immediately upon signing. |
| 1:26.3 | The one guarantee that I have to have is that there will be no nuclear weapons. |
| 1:30.7 | They've agreed to that. |
| 1:32.6 | And it was very interesting. |
| 1:34.3 | They originally said, we will not develop a nuclear weapon. |
| 1:37.8 | I said, well, what happens if you buy a nuclear weapon? |
