It’s Friday, August 14, 2026. Steve Bannon opens War Room with the latest on the USS Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group in the North Arabian Sea—long-deployed, supporting operations and the blockade amid reports of crew strain—and the Pacific-based relief carrier (USS George Washington) now heading toward the Middle East.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is designated to lead unprecedented “Economic Fury” measures against Iran: economic isolation “never seen before” combined with the ongoing Strait of Hormuz blockade, with more announcements expected next week.

The biggest behind-the-scenes fight in Washington remains artificial intelligence. Wired’s Hugo Lowell joins to break down his reporting on the White House getting far more serious about containment and safety testing for frontier models (starting with closed models from labs like Anthropic and OpenAI, expanding to open models as they hit the same capability thresholds). This comes as Anthropic eyes a potential public offering at a $2–3 trillion valuation and the administration balances innovation against accelerating risks—after earlier battles over preemption language and executive orders.

What do YOU think—should the White House move faster on AI containment, or is the current voluntary framework still the right approach to stay ahead of China? Drop your take in the comments.
