Boss baby: Trump says 'I’m the boss' as critics say he’s getting bossed by Iran
President Donald Trump entered a G-7 meeting in France, joking that he is the boss and declaring his intention to ditch the proposed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Iran if it does not meet his expectations. The MOU offers Iran immediate sanctions relief and economic benefits while only requiring Tehran to address its stockpile of near-bomb-grade uranium. Critics argue this deal undermines US leverage and is a "JCPOA-Lite," comparing it unfavorably to the Obama administration's original nuclear pact with Iran. The White House has defended the agreement, emphasizing that it prevents Iran from rebuilding its nuclear program while Vice President JD Vance argues the new deal offers long-term benefits for stability in the region. However, a bipartisan rebellion is brewing in Congress over concessions made to Iran, with some Republicans expressing skepticism about the deal's effectiveness and potential for Iranian compliance.
