Morning Must Reads: July 15

The Iran nuclear agreement has ignited a firestorm of controversy in Washington, largely along party lines, but its future appears clear: it is more than likely to take effect, as Republicans in Congress don’t have the votes to override a presidential veto of a bill to kill the deal. GOP presidential candidates spent most of Tuesday criticizing the agreement and one-upping each other on their rhetoric about the dangers it poses for America and its allies. Democrats, including Hillary Clinton, celebrated the agreement, but took care to note that it does not end the challenges from Iran.

Donald Trump has risen to the top of some Republican primary polling, but his campaign and business career are intertwined. Former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley pushed for sweeping new protections for those in the U.S. illegally Tuesday, going further than either President Barack Obama or Clinton has in calling for reform. And today will see a flood of campaign finance report filings with the Federal Election Commission, providing the first glimpses at the inner-workings of the 2016 presidential campaigns.
