No Agenda Show Dissects Iran MOU Collapse, Graham's Middle East Reveal

Episode 1879 of the No Agenda Show, titled 'Grace and Assurance,' published June 21, 2026, and hosted by Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak, dissects the fraying U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding, Israel's continued strikes in southern Lebanon, and what the hosts argue is a remarkably candid reveal by Senator Lindsey Graham of the Trump administration's full Middle East endgame. Broadcasting from the Texas Hill Country and Northern Silicon Valley, Curry and Dvorak deliver more than three hours of media deconstruction on a Sunday news cycle the mainstream networks largely glossed over.

Listeners get a layered breakdown of the week's biggest stories, including the collapsing ceasefire between Iran and the U.S., Israeli operations near Beaufort Castle, and the Strait of Hormuz reopening. Susan Rice on ABC called the MOU a 'jaw-dropping, horrific surrender,' countered by Chatham House and Council on Foreign Relations analysis. Senator Lindsey Graham's CBS interview detailed a four and a half hour White House briefing and a 2026 Abraham Accords expansion to Saudi Arabia. Other topics include outgoing DNI Tulsi Gabbard's release of Fauci-related gain-of-function documents, a surging Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo now the third largest on record, and California's AB 130 Section 58 vehicle-miles-traveled housing fee reportedly adding $324,000 per home.

The hosts apply their trademark skepticism to NPR's Ron Elving, CNN's coverage of acting DNI Bill Pulte, and former Vice President Kamala Harris's latest word salad. On Graham's Hormuz reveal, Curry observes: 'This is not presented as speculation. This is the plan. This is it.' Dvorak agrees the senator appears to be reading from someone else's script. The pair also flag NPR's curious description of French President Emmanuel Macron hosting the G7 with 'grace and assurance,' a phrase that gives the episode its title. Deeper context comes from a resurfaced Robert Malone clip in which the vaccine researcher describes mRNA technology as a CIA and DARPA program advanced through In-Q-Tel and Moderna, which the hosts argue explains why Gabbard's Fauci disclosures have generated almost no mainstream coverage. Other threads include Arnold Schwarzenegger on California refining policy, the Obama Presidential Center's roughly $850 million budget and unpaid minority subcontractors highlighted by Omar Sharif of the African American Contractors Association, and an Axios interview where President Trump declares 'there are no limits' to his power.
