President Trump said a potential deal to end Iran war is close, but skeptics say it could be another false start. Aamer Madhani of the Associated Press breaks down what’s different this time. Voters in Switzerland head to the polls Sunday to decide whether their country should cap its population at 10 million. The New Yorker’s Jessi Jezewska Stevens joins to discuss how the vote could transform the Swiss economy and its relationship with the E.U. The Supreme Court’s conservative majority is leaning hard into originalism, the idea that the Constitution means what it meant when it was written. The Wall Street Journal’s James Romoser explains how that’s affecting some of the term’s most consequential cases. Plus, Trump nominated U.S. attorney Jay Clayton as DNI, El Niño has officially begun, and how a deep run by the U.S. men’s soccer team in the World Cup could bring the country together. Today’s episode was hosted by Gideon Resnick.
