The President's Daily Brief: Geopolitical Tensions, Free Speech Battles, and Surprising Revelations
Rising Tensions Among Global Powers
On September 4th, the President's Daily Brief opened with an overview of the recent gathering of world leaders in Beijing, where President Xi Jinping hosted a massive Victory Day parade.
