Description: In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:   First up, we uncover an explosive story from Washington. A high-level Iranian influence ring has been exposed, and shockingly, now-suspended Iran envoy Robert Malley is implicated. The objective? To influence U.S. policy toward Iran. We'll trace this network from Tehran all the way to the corridors of power in Washington DC.   Later, we analyze a confidential U.S. strategy document, obtained by POLITICO. Despite their public assertions, Biden administration officials are deeply concerned about corruption in Ukraine.   Moving to the west coast, California Governor Gavin Newsom swiftly names Laphonza Butler to Senator Dianne Feinstein's seat, making history with the first openly lesbian Black member of Congress. But who is Ms. Butler? We'll delve into her career, which paradoxically champions both progressive and anti-progressive causes.   And on the Back of the Brief segment: The Wagner Group's leadership might see a familial successor. According to unofficial sources, Yevgeny Prigozhin's young son, Pavel, is poised to inherit his father's vast empire.   Please remember to subscribe if you enjoyed this episode of The President's Daily Brief.
