Mike McGlone expects lower energy prices: Trump needs lower prices by midterms, natural gas is leading down, and crude oil tends to revert to a 'low price cure' near $50/barrel by year-end. Gasoline should follow futures lower toward $3.80 and potentially below $3. The U.S. no longer needs the SPR due to domestic surplus.

Michael Oren states the reported U.S.-Iran MOU does not address Israel's core war goals: preventing Iran's nuclear weapon, removing enriched uranium, stopping ballistic missiles, or ending support for proxies. Israel was not consulted, is not bound, and will continue self-defense even at risk of friction with the U.S. He sees a somber mood in Israel as hopes for a transformed region have dissipated.

Rep. McClellan says she cannot support the MOU without seeing details, noting contradictions between U.S. and Iranian statements (e.g., $300B payment). She questions whether the deal includes UN inspections and whether it puts the Middle East on a path to peace. On FISA 702, she wants reforms to close loopholes on spying on Americans before extending, but finds Jay Clayton less objectionable than Bill Pulte as DNI.
