"Balance of Power: Late Edition" focuses on the intersection of politics and global business. On today's show, William Taylor, former US Ambassador to Ukraine and distinguished fellow at the Atlantic Council's Eurasia Center, discussed the current pause in Iranian strikes on the Strait, suggesting it reflects both a chance for diplomacy and a period for rearming. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries criticized the ongoing US military involvement in the Middle East, describing it as a "reckless war of choice" initiated under President Donald Trump without a clear plan or exit strategy. Kentucky Democratic Governor Andy Beshear addressed concerns over Senator Mitch McConnell's prolonged absence from the Senate due to health issues.
