President Trump is asking for amendments to a deal with Iran, including strengthening sections around Iran's nuclear material.
Donald Trump

One guarantee I have to have is that there will be no nuclear weapons. They've agreed to that. Now it says we will not develop or in any way purchase a military weapon.
Monica Rix

Trump has concerns about unfreezing Iranian funds and reopening the Strait of Hormuz is a big priority.
Jeff Mason

President has a lot of competing interests. He wants to get out of this war but as a dealmaker, he doesn't want it to be one that isn't great. Plenty of Republicans are worried that's exactly what he's going to do.

Israeli troops have captured a strategic mountain in southern Lebanon, their deepest incursion in more than a quarter century.

SpaceX is on track for an historic IPO. Managing banks are going to investors to get a feel for demand and they're low-balling it.

SpaceX aims to raise $75 billion in that listing, expected to be a market spectacle as investors buy into Musk's vision of a combined space and AI powerhouse.

Homeland Security has clarified that highly qualified green card applicants will see no noticeable impact from a controversial policy requiring most applicants to apply from outside the US.

An Ebola outbreak is spreading quickly in Central Africa with more than 240 deaths. Former CDC director says the world is not ready for another pandemic.
Tom Frieden

This Ebola outbreak is not going to cause a pandemic or significant risk to large numbers of Americans. It's a stress test and the world is not doing well at it.
Monica Rix

Wall Street ended May with main indexes at records, but new jobs data out this week could change that.
Andrew O'Day

Tuesday: reading of posted US job openings in April. Wednesday: private sector job creation from ADP. Friday: Labor Department report with unemployment rate expected at 4.3% and total job creation likely tepid, holding below 100,000.
Monica Rix

The Fed is set to release its latest Beige Book, likely to show US economic activity as uneven but generally positive across regions.
