## Resource

Is Trump’s Iran War and apparent peace deal a win or another Trump headline in search of substance? President Trump is touting a new Iran deal as a major breakthrough, but lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are asking what’s actually in this agreement. The reported deal comes with big promises about stability, security, and reopening the Strait of Hormuz, but details are scarce and even some Republicans say they’ll need answers before declaring victory. We will run it past Pulitzer Prize winning author and investigative journalist David Cay Johnston. Mark talks politics with progressive host and author Thom Hartmann.
