In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: We'll start things off in the Middle East, where leaders from the Gulf states are lobbying the Biden administration to prevent Israel from striking Iranian oil sites, fearing such a retaliation will open up their own oil facilities to attacks by Iranian proxies. Later in the program, the Biden administration is looking to leverage Israel’s success in degrading Hezbollah to sever the group’s hold over the Lebanese government, pushing for the election of a new president. Then, despite making territorial gains, Russian losses are piling up in eastern Ukraine, which just saw the bloodiest month of fighting since the war began nearly three years ago. In our 'Back of the Brief' segment, CBS News is in the spotlight over their mounting internal scandals and anti-Israel bias, particularly after an internal memo surfaced that instructed reporters not to refer to Jerusalem as being part of Israel.
