Please quit with this jello-spined equivocating and actually act like an OPPOSITION party for once. Not independents, not centrists. Nobody has time for that weak sauce. We need political leaders who will stand up and fight for the rights of the people with real, concrete action.

1. What the JCPOA actually delivered: sanctions relief and access to frozen Iranian assets

The 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action eased international nuclear‑related sanctions and, as a result, allowed Iran access to foreign assets that had been frozen under sanctions, commonly estimated at around $100 billion, a figure cited by U.S. and European officials as the aggregate of Iranian funds reachable once restrictions loosened—not a direct transfer from U.S. taxpayer coffers to Tehran.

2. The $1.7 billion settlement: a separate, older claim, not the same as JCPOA asset unfreezing

In January 2016 the U.S. settled a long‑running claim arising from a canceled 1979 arms contract by returning $400 million in principal and paying $1.3 billion in accrued interest, a total commonly reported as $1.7 billion; Brookings and contemporaneous official statements frame this as a legal settlement of Iranian funds owed, distinct from the broader sanctions relief tied to the JCPOA.

So instead of teenage delinquency (what they used to call kids aimlessly wandering around in a group) middle/high school girls are more online. Sounds like a good trade!

The drop in birth rates has affected women of all ages, but it's most pronounced among teenagers. That sounds plausible to Jean Twenge, a professor of psychology at San Diego State University.

In books like Generations: The Real Differences Between Gen Z, Millennials, Gen X, Boomers, and Silents, Twenge has documented the profound behavioral changes that accompanied smartphones, especially among young people.

"The smartphone fundamentally changed the way adolescents spent their time outside of school," Twenge told NPR. "They started spending a lot more time online and on their phones and a lot less time hanging out with their friends in person and driving around in a car or going to the mall or just hanging out."

The ruling by the judge, Kathleen M. Williams, on Friday to revive the case shortly after closing it was a significant blow both to Mr. Trump, who had voluntarily dismissed the suit last week, and to the Justice Department. After the president withdrew the suit, senior department officials released a pair of extraordinary agreements that settled the case by establishing a $1.8 billion fund to compensate people who claimed they were victims of government “weaponization” by Democrats.

The deal also conferred lucrative tax benefits on Mr. Trump, his family and his businesses.

Judge Williams’s decision came in response to court papers filed on Wednesday by a bipartisan group of 35 former federal judges who urged her to bring the case back to life and dig into the details of the agreement to settle it.

In a footnote, Judge Williams questioned the provision granting Mr. Trump, his family and their businesses immunity from I.R.S. scrutiny of tax returns they had already filed. She wrote that the audit protection may run afoul of Justice Department rules requiring legal settlements to directly relate to the issues in the suit.

She also noted that only Mr. Blanche signed the audit provision. The separate, nine-page agreement laying out the $1.8 billion fund was signed by Mr. Woodward and Frank Bisignano, who is serving as the chief executive officer of the I.R.S., a newly created role that is not subject to Senate confirmation.
