P.M. Edition for Mar. 17. A top U.S. counterterrorism official resigns over the war with Iran, while Israel said it killed two of Iran’s leaders. We hear from WSJ reporter Anat Peled about Israel’s strategy to take out top leaders of enemy organizations. Plus, the Senate kicks off debate over a voter-eligibility bill called the SAVE America Act. Journal reporter Anvee Bhutani joins us from Capitol Hill to discuss its prospects for becoming law. And social media is buzzing about a new AI tool from Perplexity that some say can rival the functions of the Bloomberg terminal for a lot less money. But tech reporter Isabelle Bousquette reports that Wall Street’s obsession with the terminal means that it may not be so easily replaced. Alex Ossola hosts.
