The Iran MOU is signed, and Trump is coming home to a full-scale Republican revolt — with GOP senators calling it the worst foreign policy blunder in decades. Ben breaks down JD Vance's embarrassing White House briefing, where he lied about Iran's nuclear program being destroyed and insisted Trump was "just joking" about blaming him if the deal falls apart. Meanwhile, Ukraine launched its biggest-ever drone attack on Moscow, Israel is ignoring the agreement entirely and keeps striking Lebanon, and Trump's approval on the economy has hit the worst numbers ever recorded for a sitting president. Plus, every living former president showed up to celebrate the opening of the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago — and one very notable name was not on the guest list. Ben, Brett, and Jordy discuss all this and more!
