US Lifts Oil Sanctions On Iran, Trump Shifts To Economy, MN Subpoenas Thrown Out

The United States has implemented a temporary 60-day waiver on oil sanctions against Iran, allowing the country to sell oil in U.S. dollars as an incentive for nuclear compliance. While the administration claims Iran has agreed to allow nuclear inspectors back into the country, Iranian officials deny these claims, insisting that final agreements depend on the release of frozen assets in Qatar and a sustained ceasefire in Lebanon. Meanwhile, President Trump is visiting Pennsylvania to promote his economic agenda amidst record-low approval ratings, promising that the end of the conflict will lower energy and grocery costs. Additionally, a federal judge in Minnesota has invalidated grand jury subpoenas issued by the administration, ruling they were used to harass and retaliate against local officials who refused to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement policies.
