Iran Peace Talks Falter as Trump Suspects Stalling – Despite optimistic signals from U.S. and Iranian negotiators, President Trump warns the Ayatollah may be playing for time, possibly to build a nuclear weapon.

U.S.-Mexico Water Conflict Heats Up – Trump threatens tariffs and sanctions over Mexico’s failure to release treaty-mandated water to Texas. He also floats an FDR-scale civil works plan to desalinate and reroute water from northern Mexico into the American Southwest.
