A former ambassador joined the program with his take on Middle East tensions. Also in focus: A blowout quarter for Goldman Sachs, Tesla falls after reports of job cuts, Apple shares pull back on data showing iPhone shipments down almost 10% in Q1, DJT shares slide as former President Trump's criminal trial gets underway in New York.
