About this episode

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:

 

  • We dive deep into the current situation in southern Israel as the IDF gears up for its offensive into the Gaza Strip. With the Hamas terrorists' rampage going on for more than a week, the challenges of evacuating civilians from an imminent war zone come into focus.

 

  • China's stance on Israel comes under the spotlight. They've been vocal about their concerns, specifically targeting Israel's response to Hamas, questioning if it's just self-defense.

 

  • With experts predicting a million refugees in Gaza, we discuss the American response. Progressives, spearheaded by Rep. Jamaal Bowman, are rallying for the US to step in and provide refuge.

 

  • And for our dedicated Back of the Brief segment, we're revisiting two ongoing investigations: The rising pressure on Senator Robert Menendez as he faces yet another indictment, and the growing concerns around President Biden’s former special envoy to Iran, Robert Malley, and his potential ties to the Iranian regime.
