40:44Now PlayingOn this episode of "On Balance," Leland Vittert discusses how both parties are failing America. Nobody wants to moderate! Republicans can't, and Democrats won't. Former New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and Lauren Wright weigh in.
Meanwhile, Max Miller is lighting the GOP on fire in Ohio. Speaker Johnson says things don't look good. He's two heartbeats away from the presidency and can't say this guy has to go? Jim Renacci breaks down the politics.
Later, El-Sayed vs. Stevens: the breakdown of what happened in last night's Michigan Democratic primary. Mike Nellis and Chris Cillizza analyze the results.
Also, should we just give up on meaningful change in Iran? The president seems to be allowing Iran to be in a more powerful position than before the war, moving from unconditional surrender to accepting Iran controlling the Strait of Hormuz. Ambassador Kurt Volker assesses the situation.
Plus, the controversial Flock cameras. Some praise them as a powerful crime-fighting tool, while others denounce them as an unprecedented invasion of privacy. Chad Marlow offers his perspective.
"On Balance with Leland Vittert" takes a critical look at some of the day's hottest subjects. Weekdays at 9p/8C. Subscribe to his War Notes newsletter here#onbalance
