It’s September 2nd. You’re listening to the President’s Daily Brief. Your morning intel starts now. ------ Welcome to a special edition of the PDB this morning: We’re back to a Big Five Update. Five critical updates on stories we’ve covered previously that are shaping America — and the world. First, some good economic news: America’s Manufacturers are holding steady in the face of a recession. Second, some bad economic news: America’s farmers are getting hit with record-setting expenses. Third, a sliver of hope in the Wheat Wars: a ship is unloading grain this morning that will help feed 1.5M people. Fourth, you will not believe what parents in China are having to do to get their kids to school, all because of Beijing’s Zero COVID policy. Finally, the CDC admitted that they botched their COVID response but we continue to learn just how bad it was. The latest: how badly they damaged our health. Plus, one more thing before I let you go. A listener’s question about Joe Biden’s speech last night — and how data show that Mr. Biden got it dangerously wrong. ------ Please remember to subscribe if you enjoyed this episode of the President's Daily Brief.
