Donald Trump’s last-minute ceasefire deal with the leadership of Iran was greeted with a great deal of skepticism on MS NOW on Wednesday morning with co-host Jonathan Lemire astounded by concessions the normally combative president agreed to.

On “Morning Joe,” the ten-point agreement brokered by Pakistan was broken down point by point by a panel of diplomatic experts, but it was Lemire who pointed out near the end that Iran came out ahead in the deal with regard to the Strait of Hormuz blockade with Iran essentially maintaining control.

President Donald Trump revealed Wednesday that his administration would be working alongside Iran to “dig up and remove” enriched uranium as part of the two-week ceasefire agreement that was tentatively agreed to on Tuesday, and spoke optimistically about a path forward for peace.

“The United States will work closely with Iran, which we have determined has gone through what will be a very productive Regime Change!” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.

President Donald Trump and his allies are not telling the same story as the Iranians about the recently agreed-upon ceasefire deal, according to a new report.

Trump announced on Truth Social that the U.S. and Iran had agreed to a two-week ceasefire as they negotiate the end to the war in Iran. Few details about the agreement have been released. Meanwhile, the Associated Press reported on Tuesday night that the Iranian government appears to be trying to dupe the Trump administration over a requirement for Iran to cease its uranium enrichment program.

President Donald Trump's Iran strategy has been such a disaster, said MS NOW's Jen Psaki on Tuesday's edition of "The Briefing," that it even has far-right pundits saying the exact thing about the military that, just a few months ago, Democratic lawmakers enraged the Trump administration by saying.

"After all that bluster, after all that maximalist language and reprehensible threats of genocide, after all that, where does this leave us?" said Psaki. "I mean, gas prices are at their highest levels in years, with the national average now sitting at $4.14 a gallon, according to AAA. Trump has destroyed America's already-fractured relationship with our closest allies, threatening the future of the NATO alliance. America has lost any moral authority on the question of war crimes and whether we can expect other countries to adhere to the Geneva Conventions, as Trump ignores them. He's risked the prestige of America's military, treating them like a bunch of toy soldiers."

Clay Fuller, a Trump-backed Republican, is heading to Washington to replace former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene after winning a runoff election Tuesday against Democrat Shawn Harris.

The Associated Press called the race for Fuller, a lieutenant colonel in the Air National Guard and former district attorney for the Lookout Mountain Judicial Circuit, at 8:23 p.m. Tuesday.

Gas prices “will rapidly come back down,” as soon as the war against Iran ends, President Donald Trump said during his address to the nation last week.

That’s not what his Department of Energy said Tuesday.

A bipartisan immigration reform bill gaining House sponsors has pitted some MAGA lawmakers against each other in open warfare.

The DIGNIDAD (Dignity) Act, sponsored by Reps. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL) and Veronica Escobar (D-TX), contains a balanced package of immigration priorities for both parties, toughening up border security and requiring all employers use the E-Verify system to screen workers for legal status, while also creating a pathway to legal residency, protections for "Dreamers," higher visa caps, and legal counsel and mental health care for detainees in border processing facilities.

President Donald Trump announced on Tuesday night that "authorities" are investigating CNN for allegedly publishing a "false" statement from the Iranian regime.

Trump announced that Iran and the U.S. had agreed to a two-week ceasefire agreement in a Truth Social post on Tuesday. CNN reported that Iran had claimed it achieved a "great victory" in the conflict, and that the country had forced Trump to relent and lift all sanctions against Iran.

Political analysts and observers were taken aback on Tuesday after the initial details of President Donald Trump's announced ceasefire with Iran were released.

The New York Times reported that some of the ceasefire provisions include the U.S. agreeing not to attack Iran again and lifting all sanctions on Iranian oil, including those that were put in place by George W. Bush's administration. The details emerged after Trump announced Iran and the U.S. had agreed to a two-week ceasefire just an hour ahead of Trump's self-imposed deadline to reach a deal.
