@GracchusZ@kingrurum15@Corina4prez@ath3na89@TheBoyOr8or Yeah other than taxes he’s pretty liberal, he voted to ban bump stocks and for gun control measures, supported all the trump impeachment efforts, signed pro trans bathroom laws, legalized weed, and supported a 50 million dollar funding increase for clean water funding
Steyer needs to beat Hilton by roughly 14 points in late mail to advance, and recent ED drops are already showing signs of meeting or even exceeding that benchmark.
Currently, the top-three is within 7.3 points. A very blue electorate could allow him to edge out Hilton.
EXPECTED TERMS OF US-IRAN PEACE DEAL:
1. Extension of Iran War ceasefire for another 60 days
2. Strait of Hormuz reopened for the 60-day period
3. Iran would be able to freely sell oil during the period
4. US would lift blockade on Iranian ports and unfreeze some Iranian funds
5. US would issue some sanction waivers on Iranian oil
6. Draft MOU includes statement that war between Israel and Lebanon would end
7. Negotiations would then be held regarding Iran's nuclear program
The draft MOU includes commitments from Iran to never pursue nuclear weapons, negotiate over a suspension of uranium enrichment, and removal of its highly enriched uranium, US officials told Axios.
The situation remains fluid amid the high-stakes negotiations.
The emerging US-Iran framework, according to a senior official from a mediating country, although the official says the exact mechanisms haven't been defined, and the unfreezing of funds and sanctions relief haven't been agreed:
-US, Israel ceasefire in Iran, Lebanon
-US lifts blockade (no stipulation on US removing any assets from CENTCOM)
-US unfreezes Iranian money, lifts sanctions
-Iran gradual reopening of the Strait
-Iran uranium enrichment freeze. 10-20 years. (Number not yet agreed. No stipulation on what Iran is or is not allowed to do after the timeframe)
-Export HEU. No final decision yet, but Iran has suggested to the IAEA.
-IAEA access to nuclear sites
-Iran pledges not to operate underground nuclear facilities
so are iranians getting US funds or no? Seems US sources are saying opening strait + end to blockade/hostilities in exchange for partial oil sanctions relief to iran, while some iranian sources are describing far-reaching US unblocking billions $ + withdrawing some US forces
JD Vance makes bizarre comment to journalist following speculation of insider trading at the White House:
"Let Marco make his Polymarket bet on that first"
Here's how the big 5 NoVa localities voted:
Yes outran Harris in all of them
(and asterisk on 2026 because the Yes margin could tick up a little with provisionals and late mail)

The transcripts from the USA - Iran negotiations have been released:
Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf: “You’re not in a good position. You don’t have the cards right now. With us, you start having cards.”
JD Vance: “I’m not playing cards. I’m very serious.”
MBG: “You’re playing cards. You’re gambling with the lives of millions of people. You’re gambling with World War III!”
JD: “What are you speaking about?”
MBG: “You’re gambling with World War III! And what you’re doing is very disrespectful to this country!"
JD: “I am very in respect with your country!”
MBG: “Have you said thank you once?”
JD: “A lot of times! Even today.”
MBG: “No, in this entire meeting, you said thank you?"
JD: “No. What are you speaking about?”
MBG: “Offer some words of appreciation for the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Supreme Leader who’s trying to save your country.”
JD: “Please. You think that if you will speak very loudly about the war, you can –”
Iran's FM Abbas Araghchi: “He’s not speaking loudly. He’s not speaking loudly. Your country is in big trouble.”
JD: “Can I answer?”
MBG: “No, no. You’ve done a lot of talking. Your country is in big trouble.”
JD: “I know. I know.”
MBG: “You’re not winning. You’re not winning this. You have a damn good chance of coming out OK because of us.”
