37:24Now PlayingOn this episode of "On Balance," Leland Vittert stresses the importance of not walking away from Iran until the job is done. Meanwhile, President Trump also announced a three-day ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine. While Trump still deals with the overseas conflicts, Americans’ anger rises over the high gas prices. Rep. Adam Smith, D-Wash., the ranking member of the House Armed Services Committee, joins to discuss.
Meanwhile, maybe we are not alone in the galaxy after all. The Pentagon released hundreds of images, videos and documents related to UFOs. The federal government has been sitting on these files for decades, but what were they so afraid of? Dr. Seth Shostak, senior astronomer at the SETI Institute, investigates.
Later, the Virginia Supreme Court struck down redistricting plans, leaving Democrats scrambling and Republicans celebrating a win. The ongoing redistricting fight could get uglier as southern states including Alabama and Mississippi look to redraw their maps. Rodney Hall, a Mississippi state representative, and Sarah Isgur, senior editor of The Dispatch, explain it all.
