It’s August 5th. You’re listening to the President’s Daily Brief. Your morning intel starts now. ------ First, there are Afghan terrorists in America but the FBI has lost track of them. That’s the alarming admission made yesterday by the FBI Director. We’ll discuss the latest. As always, I’m keeping an eye out for developing stories. Put these two on your radar. First up, the Chinese Government and its partners have bought over 200,000 acres of American land — including 300 acres near a key Air Force Base. I’ll share the latest on attempts to roll back those purchases. Second, an update on the War for the South Pacific. As PDB listeners might recall, there’s a big fight between America and China over influence in the South Pacific — with Hawaii in the crosshairs. I’ve got an update on our government’s efforts to claw back power in the region. And finally, one more thing before I let you go. Questions and comments from listeners, this one from Jeremy in Topeka, Kansas. He’s skeptical that Africa should be of interest to Americans. I’ll explain what he might not be considering, and then you can decide. ------ Please remember to subscribe if you enjoyed this episode of the President's Daily Brief.
