About this episode

The episode discusses Trump's indefinite extension of the Iran ceasefire and its implications, along with his stance on tariffs and the political landscape in Virginia.

The President extends the ceasefire in Iran indefinitely, hours before his deadline and without more talks scheduled. Then, a warning shot to big business as Trump encourages U.S. companies not to file refunds for illegal tariffs they already paid. Plus, voters in Virginia say 'yes' to new maps that could give Dems a boost in the battle to control Congress. Jeff Mason, Sam Stein, Gen. Barry McCaffrey, Gillian Tett, Neil Irwin, Larry Sabato, and Antonia Hylton join The 11th Hour this Tuesday night
