    Been collecting a bunch of links about the deal with Iran. Thought I'd post them all in one thread.

    Seems like lots of folks, including some in the GOP, are pretty skeptical.

    Also from inside the administration. From Axios:

            DUBAI, June 16 (Reuters) - A $300 billion private fund designed ​to trigger investment into Iran is outlined in the U.S.-Iran framework agreement and more than half that sum has already been committed, a source with ‌direct knowledge of the deal told Reuters.
            The fund is designed to give both sides an economic incentive to conclude a final deal, said the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the plan has not yet been announced as Washington and Tehran prepare to sign on Friday.

                $300 billion here, $300 billion there…

                Good grief.

                  Bloomberg seems to have gotten a copy of a draft of the MOU.
