It’s September 5th. You’re listening to the President’s Daily Brief. Your morning intel starts now. ------ It’s Labor Day — lots of us are relaxing and celebrating. But not one group of workers they’re 6,000 miles away in China, toiling in fields and factories by force. We’ll discuss what we know, how it got this bad, and what we might do to help. As always, I’m keeping an eye out for developing stories. Put these two on your radar. First, the Biden Administration is set to ask Congress for another $11.7B for Ukraine after burning through the $40B authorized in May. Second, Mexican workers in the US are sending money back home in record amounts — over $5B just last month. And finally, the last thing before I let you go. We’ll talk about the science of why it’s good to be alone with your thoughts on holidays like today — to just sit back and think. ------ Please remember to subscribe if you enjoyed this episode of the President's Daily Brief.
