December 26th, 2025: Cuba Is On The Verge Of Total Collapse & Fighting Erupts In Syria

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:

• Cuba teeters on the edge of collapse, as a U.S. oil blockade targeting Venezuela cuts off critical fuel supplies to the island, triggering widespread blackouts, shortages, and a growing wave of Cubans fleeing the country. I’ll have the details.

  
  

• The Trump administration orders nearly thirty U.S. ambassadors home, creating major gaps in the diplomatic corps—even as the White House pushes an aggressive diplomacy-first approach abroad.

  
  

• Instability grows inside Syria, with gun battles erupting in Aleppo while negotiations continue over folding Kurdish forces into the regime’s control.

  
  

• And in today’s Back of the Brief: Kim Jong Un cuts the ribbon on a luxury seaside resort, pitching high-end tourism in one of the most isolated countries on earth.
