I put “surprised” in quotation marks, because it’s a word I will come back to several times, and it’s a kind of leitmotif for western policy and western misunderstanding over the last couple of generations. It’s not unique to the West, to be fair, but the West has been the most powerful politico-military actor of modern times, and we’ll concentrate on the West for the most part.

| − | When Did Tucker Carlson Decide That ‘America First’ Means Supporting Iran?
| |
| − | By Ben M. Freeman. June 16, 2026
| |
| − | | |
| − | In 2012, Tucker Carlson described the Islamic Republic of Iran as “evil” and its leaders as “lunatics.” He even argued that the Iranian regime “deserves to be annihilated.”
| |
| − | | |
| − | At the time, Carlson recognized a reality that remains unchanged today: the Islamic Republic is not a normal state pursuing normal state interests. It is a revolutionary regime built on repression, proxy warfare, and regional destabilization.
| |
| − | | |
| − | What makes Carlson’s evolution particularly striking is that he is often presented as one of the leading voices of the America First movement. Iran is not merely an adversary of Israel. For nearly half a century, the Islamic Republic has defined itself in opposition to the United States, funded groups responsible for killing Americans, attacked American interests across the Middle East, and built a foreign policy around hostility toward both Washington and its allies.

| − | Takeaways from Trump news conference on Iran deal
| |
| − | | |
| − | Author : CBS News · June 17, 2026.
| |
| − | <blockquote>
| |
| − | | |
| − | Sure. Well,''' the president has been making some pretty grandiose claims all week here in Evian about the things that this one and a halfpage agreement will accomplish. Most notably, he says it will prevent Iran from ever getting a nuclear weapon. But he hasn't explained how exactly the deal will do that. And the drafts that have been circulating, you know only mention Iran's nuclear program a couple of times.
| |
| − | The rest of the document deals with the Straight of Hormuz, deals with sanctions, unfreezing assets and things like that.
| |
| − | | |
| − | And so I just wanted to ask him directly, why are you claiming that this particular deal is going to prevent Iran from ever getting a nuclear weapon?
| |
| − | | |
| − | And he said, well, if they try to get a nuclear weapon, then we'll just bomb them, which may be the case, but that's not the same as a deal that enforces it.
| |
| − | So, I followed up by asking him, if there's anything enforcable in this deal, any kind of mechanism that prevents Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.
| |
| − | And he kind of blew it off.
| |
| − | He said, "Well, what do you want me to do?
| |
| − | Sue them or take them to court? What kind of enforcement are you talking about?"'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | But the reality is, that the two sides are about to embark on a lengthy negotiation that will involve enforcable benchmarks. That would be enforced by the US, enforced by international agencies to hopefully ensure that Iran doesn't begin nuclear development again. And whether that negotiation will be successful is still up in the air, but it's pretty clear that this memorandum of understanding does not do what President Trump claims it does, preventing Iran from ever getting a nuclear weapon.</blockquote>

| |
| − | <blockquote>
| |
| − | It's entirely possible that Trump, the "Art of the Deal" master, never saw the details of the MoU --brokered by fake "friends" Qatar/Pakistan-- before blindly placing his confidence in JD Vance. Yet virtually no one argues that this deal is good for America. There is broad consensus across Republicans, Democrats, conservatives, and many others that the sole beneficiary would be Iran's oppressive regime and its jihadist proxies.

On Friday, Vice President JD Vance will attend the official signing in Geneva of a 14-point US-Iran Memorandum of Understanding that covers the naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, Iran's nuclear ambitions, the lifting of sanctions, a $300bn reconstruction fund for Iran and a ceasefire.

| | | | |
| − | ===Reconstruction fund===
| + | Trump launched a failed [[Epic Fury|war on Iran]] for Israel last February, as his [[NSC director]] and [[Secretary of State Marco Rubio]] admitted. Now, the [[war]] has come home. |
| − | {{quotebox-float|:Para 6: "The United States of America undertakes with regional partners to develop a definitive, mutually agreed plan with at least U.S.D. 300 billion for the reconstruction and economic development of the Islamic Republic of Iran. The mechanism for the implementation of this plan will be finalized as part of a final deal within 60 days. All required '''licenses, waivers and permissions needed for the relevant financial transactions''' will be granted by the United States of America."
| |
| | | | |
| − | Infrastructure deals are extremely complex and very high fee and would require Iran to convey title of the assets being “reconstructed” to the fund, which is na ga happen. It is hard to see how the US, which has done the Gulf States great harm with its Iran war caper, has the leverage to get them to agree to pony up most/all of $300 billion when they have their own rebuilding needs.
| + | Iran’s control over the [[Strait of Hormuz]] became a vice grip around the neck of [[Trump]] and the [[GOP]], especially in the heartland, where [[diesel]] prices are 70% higher than a year ago, and farmers have been forced to leave crops in the ground. [https://responsiblestatecraft.org/iran-war-midterms/ 74% of Americans told pollsters the failed Iran war was a crucial or major factor] in their vote tonight, and over 60% said they were voting against the Republicans because of it. |
| | | | |
| − | So what does Iran do when the US fails to deliver on this commitment? The MOU already contemplates that Iran will regularize its control of the Strait of Hormuz and presumably charge fees after 60 days. We had said that Iran likely understands full well that the US cannot satisfy this requirement and might explicitly use this to '''impose fees at a level designed to realize $300 billion over time''' (as in use this explicitly with the Gulf States as an alternative to funding reconstruction). However, [[Robert Pape]] has argued that Iran will seek to maximize its power, and its highest value “ask” is for the US to withdraw forces across the region.

| + | Democrats won senate races in Kansas and Nebraska, agro producer states where Republicans always roll to victory like a big wheel through a corn field. They also flipped a seat in Iowa, which Trump won by 12 points in 2024, giving them control of the senate. |
| − | Unlike [[Ukraine aid]], the Reconstruction fund is not envisioned to come directly out of the pockets of US taxpayers. Waivers in [[SWIFT]] network transactions to pay tolls, withdrawal of [[economic sanctions]], etc. are pledged. If the US needs to pony up any cash, it is offset by closure of US bases in the region, and adds nothing to the [[deficit]].
