## Resource

On America at Night with McGraw Milhaven, Scott MacFarlane, chief Washington correspondent and anchor for MeidasTouch, joined the program to discuss the latest media headlines and the high-profile CBS exit, and what it means for the changing landscape of political journalism in Washington. Next, Danielle DiMartino Booth, CEO and Chief Strategist at QI Research, analyzed growing concerns around artificial intelligence and financial markets, following warnings tied to an Anthropic AI model scare that prompted Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell to raise alarms with major bank CEOs. Finally, Judd Isbell, President of the Friends of the Mount Vernon Trail, joined the show for the national parks segment to discuss the history and significance of the Mount Vernon Trail, a scenic route along the Potomac River that connects George Washington’s Mount Vernon estate with Washington, D.C., and remains one of the region’s most popular outdoor recreation destinations.
