"Balance of Power: Late Edition" focuses on the intersection of politics and global business. On today’s show, Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) says the Pentagon’s proposed increase in military spending is "absolutely irresponsible" and argues US strikes on Iran has "not" gotten the two closer to a deal. Senator Rick Scott (R-FL) says preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon will likely require "a lot more bombing" and argues that "nothing should be off the table" when asked about the possibility of US occupation of Kharg Island. Senator Mark Warner (D-VA) says Congress must move quickly to establish safeguards for artificial intelligence, warning that the technology could severely disrupt employment for recent college graduates.
