"Balance of Power: Late Edition" focuses on the intersection of politics and global business. On today's show, Senator Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) says the Trump administration is undercounting the cost of the war with Iran and must be more transparent before Congress approves additional Pentagon funding. Israel's UN Ambassador Danny Danon says New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, rather than Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, "should be arrested." His comments came after Mamdani called on the federal government to act on the International Criminal Court's arrest warrant for Netanyahu if the Israeli leader visits New York. Bob McNally, founder and president of Rapidan Energy Group, warns oil prices could move sharply higher if the conflict around the Strait of Hormuz expands to the Red Sea, warning that the market has largely exhausted the buffers that helped contain the initial shock.
