It’s August 26th. You’re listening to the President’s Daily Brief. Your morning intel starts now. ------ Welcome to a special edition of the PDB this morning: a Big Five Update for you. Five critical updates on stories we’ve covered previously that are shaping America — and the world. First, there’s a very bad drought and heat wave in China it’s getting worse. Odds are you will feel the effects here in America too. I’ll explain. Second, some very good news in the Wheat Wars. The amount of Ukrainian grain getting to market hit a very important number. I’ll share it with you. Third, Mexico just arrested 150 police officers for working for a Mexican cartel. I’ll explain the latest. Fourth, California is banning the sale of gas powered cars. I’ll tell you exactly how it’s going to work — and when it starts. Finally, an update on the Battle for the South Pacific. A Prime Minister is paying off his political opponents with a slush fund full of Chinese cash. Plus, one more thing before I let you go. A personal request for what I think is going to be a very fun week starting Monday. ------ Please remember to subscribe if you enjoyed this episode of the President's Daily Brief.
