Senator and Vice Presidential Candidate JD Vance discusses former President Donald Trump’s plans for the economy, the impact of tariffs, and the urgency of immigration policy in an extended conversation. Days after the Presidential debate, Sen. Vance explains how he plans to prepare–sort of–for his own debate against Minnesota Governor and Democratic Vice Presidential Candidate Tim Walz. Best-selling author of “Moneyball” and “The Blind Side” Michael Lewis reacts to that discussion and shares takeaways from his new book on the rise and fall of Sam Bankman-Fried, “Going Infinite.” Plus, Moderna plans to launch new vaccines amid cost cutting, young bankers are putting in very long hours, and OpenAI is now eyeing an even higher valuation: over $150B.
