From August 19, 2020: Late last week, the UN Security Council voted down a resolution, offered by the United States, to indefinitely extend a conventional arms embargo on Iran set to expire in October. The lifting of the arms embargo was one of the sweeteners that was part of the Obama administration’s Iran nuclear agreement. Now, the Trump administration has announced it will begin the process of triggering the snapback of UN sanctions on Iran using procedures outlined in UNSCR 2231—a move that could be the death knell for the Iran nuclear agreement. Margaret Taylor sat down with Lawfare senior editor Scott Anderson and Richard Gowan, the UN director for the Crisis Group, an independent research and advocacy organization that recently released a report on the U.S. attempt to reimpose sanctions, to talk through the legal and political issues, as well as what will unfold on this matter in the weeks and months to come.

But what will this week’s historic verdict have on voters? Director of the FOX News Decision Desk Arnon Mishkin joined FOX News Radio’s breaking news coverage on Thursday to break down how the historic verdict could shake up the presidential race.
Memorial Day marked the unofficial start of summer and with Presidential campaigns in full swing, the House of Representatives finds itself with little to do—except make headlines.

FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram shares his reporting from Capitol Hill.
