  • The coming weeks will determine whether this ceasefire holds & real negotiations follow. But Trump’s catastrophic war is not at all justified by this weak outcome. I’m calling on Trump Admin to immediately come before Congress. Answers & accountability must come next.

  • Trump’s new agreement doesn’t stop Iran from enriching uranium or developing nuclear components. Instead, it freezes the status quo to wait for ‘future negotiations.’ Meanwhile, Trump has agreed to immediately lift sanctions on Iran. Frankly, this is just gross negligence.

  • After 100+ days of war, Trump secured little more than an agreement to start talking about Iran’s nuclear program. Trump chose war instead of diplomacy, forced Americans to pay for it, & in return got a ‘deal’ objectively far weaker than the JCPOA he walked away from 8 years ago.

  • While dining at Versailles, Pres. Trump signed an ‘agreement’ to end hostilities with Iran. Every American should be relieved this war is ending, but Trump deserves neither credit nor celebration for this outcome. Trump’s war was a catastrophic mistake.
