“Balance of Power” focuses on the intersection of politics and global business. On today’s show, Dan Brouillette, Former Secretary of Energy during the first Trump administration and Co-chair of the Torridon Group, says a US diesel export ban would be a “bad idea” because it could eventually force refiners to cut production and raise gasoline prices. Bale Dalton, US Navy Reserve Captain, Democratic Nominee for Florida’s 7th Congressional and former NASA Chief of Staff, says the war with Iran has become a “forever war” with no strategic value or defined end state. Travis Hill, FDIC chairman, says the agency is not ruling out risks from AI tools that could allow customers to move deposits more quickly in search of higher returns, though he says such a scenario would require a significant shift in how customers delegate financial decisions.
