It’s August 19th. You’re listening to the President’s Daily Brief. Your morning intel starts now.

Welcome to a special edition of the PDB this morning: another Big Five Update this week. Five critical updates on stories we’ve covered previously that are shaping America — and the world.
First, the US Department of Defense left behind a lot of military equipment in Afghanistan. How much? I’ve got new numbers.
Second, our Battle for the South Pacific got a little harder yesterday. China inked a big deal with a very small island. I’ll explain.
Third, the situation in Cuba is leading more people to flee to America. I’ve got an update.
Fourth, a drought in China spells trouble for the green energy revolution in America. I’ll share that connection.
Finally, some good news out of Europe on their energy crisis, and people like you deserve some thanks. I’ll explain shortly.
As always, there’s one last thing before I let you go. A question today from Gretchen in Waterloo, Iowa about how the CIA taught me to face tough problems in life.
