On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast: Donald Trump goes from threatening to bomb Iran and launch a ground invasion of Kharg Island to suddenly claiming he has secured a deal and called off the plans—all within a matter of hours. There’s just one problem: both Iran and Israel say no such deal exists. Markets surge on Trump’s announcement, oil prices tumble, and confusion spreads as the world tries to decipher what’s real and what’s political theater. Meanwhile, the Trump administration faces mounting scrutiny over growing chaos surrounding the FIFA World Cup, a brutal new inflation report raises fresh economic concerns, and the latest developments out of Washington continue to send shockwaves through the country. Ben, Brett, and Jordy break down all the biggest stories.
