Is there a deal?<\/span> Is there not a deal? The fawning quarters of the right-wing press have spent the weekend so far gushing about how late and hard President Donald Trump is working on a deal to end his war on Iran\u2014even missing his own son\u2019s wedding for \u201ccircumstances pertaining to Government.\u201d<\/p>

But for all that work, come Sunday morning, Trump posted on Truth Social that he will \u201cnot to rush into a deal\u201d and that \u201ctime is on our side.\u201d The not-so-subtle code: There\u2019s no deal just yet. <\/p>\n

Just yesterday, Trump posted that \u201cFinal aspects and details of the Deal are currently being discussed, and will be announced shortly.\u201d But the New York Times<\/em> reported on Sunday that while both sides have agreed in principle to end the Iranian blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, both are still describing the proposed deal differently, and even if Iran committed to giving up its enriched uranium, details about how and when would have to be hammered out later.<\/p>\n

So, as I write, a peace deal seems no closer, and as my colleague Anna Merlan documented yesterday, the president is spending an inordinate amount of time counterprogramming his eldest son\u2019s nuptials with his usual blend of ominous AI slop; worse for Trump, for all the trumpeting of a deal, his efforts have now pushed some prominent Republicans to break ranks and publicly accuse him of Iranian appeasement.<\/p>\n

Sunday\u2019s delay came amid incoming fire from top allies like former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), and Trump\u2019s former national security adviser, Gen. Mike Flynn.<\/p>\n

Amid reporting that the deal would unlock billions of Iranian dollars frozen abroad in exchange for Iran giving up its nuclear stockpile, Pompeo slammed the talks as \u201cnot remotely America First\u201d: \u201cIt\u2019s straightforward: Open the damned strait. Deny Iran access to money. Take out enough Iranian capability so it cannot threaten our allies in the region.\u201d<\/p>

The White House hit back: \u201cMike Pompeo has no idea what the fuck he\u2019s talking about,\u201d Trump\u2019s communications chief Steven Cheung posted to X last night. \u201cHe should shut his stupid mouth and leave the real work to the professionals.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cruz was also scathing: \u201cIf the result of all that is to be an Iranian regime\u2014still run by Islamists who chant \u201cdeath to America\u201d\u2014now receiving billions of dollars, being able to enrich uranium & develop nuclear weapons, and having effective control over the Strait of Hormuz, then that outcome would be a disastrous mistake.\u201d<\/p>\n

Flynn warned Trump, \u201cThe regime in Iran is lying to you and your negotiators (period, stop!). Do not believe a word they say,\u201d adding that \u201cif we pay tribute to the regime to the tune of $25B, I\u2019m concerned they\u2019ll use it for nefarious purposes down the road.\u201d<\/p>\n

An even closer ally of the president, the hawkish Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) also warned on Saturday that Iran would retain the ability to terrorize the region: \u201cIt is important we get this right,\u201d he wrote on X.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, as updates continued to roll in, Fox News reported that no deal would be signed on Sunday.<\/p>
