    No Easy Off-Ramp: Iran, the US and the Search for a Deal

    Are we seeing the potential for a diplomatic off-ramp in the latest phase of the Iran crisis, or just another pause in a much longer confrontation? The broad picture at the beginning of June 2026 is that the US and Iran appear to be trying to move from immediate crisis management to a more structured negotiation, but the process remains extremely fragile. A reported 60-day ceasefire extension would, in theory, create space for talks on reopening the Strait of Hormuz, easing some economic pressure on Iran, and eventually addressing nuclear concerns. But the hardest issues remain unresolved: Iran's enriched uranium, the future of its nuclear programme, sanctions relief, security guarantees, and the sequencing of who moves first. In this episode, Professor Ali Ansari, RUSI Senior Associate Fellow, International Security at RUSI, joins host Dr Burcu Ozcelik, to explore the following topics: - What Tehran wants from the current round of talks. - Understanding Iran's insistence that Lebanon be included in the ceasefire. - How much room does the Iranian leadership have to compromise, after war and economic pressure, in the renewed negotiations with Washington? - After spending decades studying the way the US fights wars, has Iran read the US more accurately than Washington and Israel have read Iran?

    Lawfare Daily: Inside the Upheaval of the Second Trump Administration with Emily Bazelon

    On today’s episode, Lawfare Managing Editor Tyler McBrien sits down with Emily Bazelon, a staff writer at the New York Times Magazine, the Truman Capote Fellow for Creative Writing and Law at Yale Law School, and the co-host of Slate’s weekly podcast, “Political Gabfest.” They discuss three stories Bazelon and her colleagues recently published in the New York Times Magazine. For this trilogy of oral histories, they spoke with dozens of current and former government employees at the Department of Justice (“The Unraveling of the Justice Department”), FBI (“A Year Inside Kash Patel’s F.B.I.”), and Department of Homeland Security (“The View From Inside Trump’s D.H.S.”) about their experiences navigating the upheaval of the second Trump administration from the inside.

    The Daily Blast: Trump Push to Jail Foes Takes Darker Turn—and GOP Senators Are Rattled

    Donald Trump just named William Pulte as acting Director of National Intelligence, replacing the outgoing Tulsi Gabbard. Pulte is best known for abusing his administration position to ransack the mortages of Trump’s enemies for fake pretexts to get them prosecuted and jailed. In today’s episode, University of Michigan law professor Leah Litman argues that the office of DNI could be put to even more nefarious and “terrifying” use. Indeed, GOP Senate Majority Leader John Thune suggested it may produce a “weaponized” DNI, a striking admission of serious danger ahead. Senator Tom Cotton curtly refused to share his opinion of the choice. And other GOP Senators said Pulte is unqualified for the job. Given the DNI’s power, these objections reveal visible consternation. Indeed, MAGA figures fully expect Pulte to be turned loose on the left. Litman discusses what a “weaponized” national security state under Pulte could look like and ponders whether the rule of law will survive this presidency. Looking for More from the DSR Network?

    Election ‘26 Outlook: It Ain’t the Meat (It’s the Motion)

    The political landscape is heating up as we approach the midterm elections. Key issues like our economy are at the forefront of most voters’ minds, and the Democrats need to take advantage during the coming political showdown. It is becoming clear that Dems might need to shift their focus onto the younger generations of Gen Z’ers and Millennials who are growing dissatisfied with the current establishment. How do the Dems appeal to the younger generation? Simon Rosenberg and E.J. Dionne join Ed Luce and David Rothkopf for an in-depth discussion looking at how the Democrats should be approaching these pivotal midterms. Looking for More from the DSR Network?
