"Balance of Power: Late Edition" focuses on the intersection of politics and global business. On today's show, Former US Ambassador to NATO Kurt Volker reacts to the second round of strikes against Iran, saying the MOU with Tehran was "never" the end-all-be-all. Jim Messina, founder and CEO of The Messina Group and manager of the Obama 2012 re-election campaign, says Graham Platner's "career in politics is done" after months of turmoil surrounding his campaign and sexual assault allegations that Platner has denied. Retired US Air Force Lieutenant General David Deptula says President Trump's renewed strikes against Iran are "not necessarily escalatory," but rather a "smart reaction" meant to make clear to Tehran that violations of any agreement will "make its situation worse".
