The White House released the details of Trump's agreement with Iran on Wednesday. A senior U.S. official briefed reporters on a 14-point memorandum of understanding expected to be signed Friday in Switzerland. Vice President JD Vance will attend. Trump had signaled the release was coming earlier this week. The agreement begins with a full stop to the fighting on all fronts, including Lebanon. This is not the final deal. It's a framework. Negotiators have 60 days to get the permanent agreement done. The agreement also seeks to restore commercial traffic through the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz.

With midterm elections just around the corner, both major political parties are themselves coping with divided constituencies. The Democratic Socialists vie for dominance against more moderate Democrats. MAGA Republicans confront disaffected libertarians and neocons. And outside all these polarized factions are millions of voters that don’t find any politician or political agenda credible enough to earn their allegiance. But there is a common thread shared by most disillusioned voters. They believe that America’s ruling class has abandoned its fellow citizens.

Pennsylvania Democrats rushed anti-school choice legislation Tuesday, bypassing regular order and sneaking up on Republicans. They aim to strip 30,000 children of educational scholarships, pocket the children’s scholarship money, and cut public charter school funding by $500 million. Democrat Gov. Josh Shapiro was elected in part because of his promise to return educational choice to parents and families. Between the most recent budget proposal and an offensive “assault” on school choice, the governor continues to backtrack on campaign promises.
