"Balance of Power: Late Edition" focuses on the intersection of politics and global business. On today's show, Republican Congressman Darrell Issa of California reacts to President Trump's threats against Oman, saying the President's comments should be taken "in context." Longtime Democratic strategist Jim Messina discusses Florida's primaries and whether democratic socialist candidates can broaden their appeal ahead of the midterms. Michael O'Hanlon, Director of Research in the Foreign Policy program at the Brookings Institution, assesses the Iran campaign so far, calling some of President Trump's decisions "impulsive." Former US Attorney General Alberto Gonzales says Attorney General Todd Blanche is "partly right" in arguing that the Justice Department should not operate independently of the White House.
