Vance called it “great progress,” while Trump immediately doubled down online, warning Iran’s proxies and threatening escalation. The clock is ticking: 60 days to seal the deal — and the world’s economy and security hang in the balance. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
