In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: 

• We’ll begin with an update on President-elect Donald Trump’s bombshell press conference on Tuesday, as world leaders react to his threats of American expansion through economic coercion and, potentially, military force.

• Later in the show, Russia’s troop losses in Ukraine just passed another grizzly milestone, as experts warn that Russia faces a “demographic timebomb” that could lead to a devastating population collapse.

• Plus, Iran, catastrophically weakened by their proxy war on Israel, is reportedly rushing to recoup 25 million barrels of oil from China before Donald Trump returns to office and tightens sanctions on their energy exports.

• In our 'Back of the Brief' segment, the Israeli military said on Wednesday that IDF forces have recovered the body of a hostage taken from Israel during the 7 October attacks, as well as another set of remains that may belong to the man’s captive son.
