10 Minute Drill

Trump touches down in France and Geneva ahead of the G7 as the White House pushes forward on an Iran nuclear deal. JD Vance makes clear: Iran will not get a nuclear weapon — and the Strait of Hormuz is no longer a pretext, it's a technical negotiation. What does $300 billion have to do with it?

Ro Khanna wants to ban U.S. gasoline exports to lower prices at the pump. Economists, the Daily Wire, and even the New York Times agree — this would make things worse. We break down why.

The DOJ settled with Cleveland Clinic, but the 340B drug program scandal runs deeper. Tax dollars have been used to fund dangerous transgender surgeries on minors, and Republicans are pushing for real accountability. Joe Rogan is even talking about it.

World Cup tourists are discovering America — and they love it. German fans at Buc-ee's and Waffle House, Scottish fans singing Country Roads, and a stop at Fenway. America is ready for its moment.

And finally — Jim Acosta at the Kennedy Center. You can't make it up.

All of it in 10 minutes or less.

It's the Monday Rundown on 10 Minute Drill! We're breaking down the biggest stories from the weekend — including Trump's UFC entrance, the details and serious questions surrounding the new Iran deal, G7 action, and major Senate personnel moves.

Trump made a massive entrance at the UFC fight while dark-money-funded counter-programming hosted by Jane Fonda and Bette Midler tried to steal the spotlight. Then — Jay Clayton floated as the new DNI, Todd Blanche potentially moving to AG, and FISA back on the table.

At the G7, Trump will meet with Macron at the Palace of Versailles, he’ll sit down with Zelenskyy, and he’ll hold bilateral meetings with leaders from Qatar, Egypt, and India. Big issues on the table: Ukraine, trade, protectionist digital service taxes, and Iran.

Speaking of Iran — Trump announced a deal is complete and signing is set for Friday. We break down what we know, what we don't, and the four critical questions everyone should be asking — including how this differs from the JCPOA, how verification will work, and what it means for the Iranian people.

Plus — Jim Acosta live-streams himself watching Trump's name removed from the Kennedy Center, the 340B/Blackwell story on Republican accountability, and a Flag Day moment from Talarico.

Today on the 10 Minute Drill: The U.S. hit Iran hard — and Trump says we're hitting them again. We now control the Strait of Hormuz. Then, the greatest own-goal in Democrat history: after blocking DHS funding for 100 days, Democrats ended up getting ICE and CBP funded at 11 times the level they would have received if there had been no shutdown at all. Kamala Harris celebrated. Republicans simply went around them. Congratulations to the resistance. Plus: Graham Platner drops his first general election ad and opens with a Jeffrey Epstein line — we'll explain why that may be the worst possible move for a candidate with his baggage. Then: the Trump administration is warning 500+ hospitals to publish their prices or face fines — RFK Jr. and the MAHA movement call it a major milestone for patient rights and healthcare transparency. And finally: Abdul El-Sayed is deleting posts. We noticed.

The U.S. is responding after Iran shot down an American Apache helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz — Trump announced the attack and promised a response. Then, the Southern Poverty Law Center is in serious legal trouble: federal court documents allege the far-left SPLC actually reimbursed KKK members for cross-burnings, all while labeling mainstream conservative organizations as "hate groups" on their infamous hate map. We break down the stunning hypocrisy. Plus: Graham Platner wins his Democrat primary despite — or because of? — his scandal, and voters are already sounding off. It's Waste Wednesday: the DOJ just announced Cleveland Clinic agreed to stop performing sex-change procedures on minors, 200,000 dead people were caught collecting food stamps, and VP Vance has referred Tim Walz and Keith Ellison to the DOJ for investigation. And finally: Texas Democrat James Talarico is facing a growing scandal as a second Capitol staffer confirms a past relationship — raising serious questions about his conduct with staff.
