It\u2019s August 4th. You\u2019re listening to the President\u2019s Daily Brief. Your morning intel starts now.\n------\nIt\u2019s the Big Five Update this morning on the PDB. Five briefs on five topics that I\u2019ve discussed with you before with some important updates.\n\nFirst, the Wheat Wars. On Monday the first ship out of Ukraine set sail for the Middle East. But how far did it get? I\u2019ve got that for you.\n\nSecond, the War of Attrition. The fight between Russia and Ukraine battles on, with American taxpayers propping up Kiev. But what about Russia? How\u2019s their economy these days? I\u2019ve got the latest.\n\nThird, last week Joe Biden held a phone call with China\u2019s President Xi. So what\u2019d they talk about? We don\u2019t know for sure. And that is a problem. I\u2019ll explain.\n\nFourth, fans of climate change want to slaughter all of America\u2019s cows. We talked about that this week. But some people think we can save them by changing their feed to bugs. I\u2019ve got that tasty story.\n\nAnd finally on this Big Five Update, gas and diesel prices are going down. And that\u2019s good. Well, not exactly. I\u2019ll explain the reason why none of us should cheer for the reasons behind the drop.\n\nAnd of course, I\u2019ve got one more thing before I let you go, an email today from Tiffany from somewhere in America. She wants to know about that controversial CIA recruitment ad that some of you may have seen. I\u2019ve got my reaction, coming up.\n------\nPlease remember to subscribe if you enjoyed this episode of the President's Daily Brief.\nEmail: PDB@TheFirstTV.com\nLearn more about your ad choices.
