    I spy: meeting Ukraine’s intelligence chief

    I spy: meeting Ukraine’s intelligence chief

    We sit down with Kyrylo Budanov, Ukraine’s youngest-ever spymaster. He is intense, resolute—and oddly charismatic. A world of electrified transport is going to need lots of nickel for batteries. We argue that, environmentally speaking, gathering it from the seafloor clearly beats mining it on land (11:12). And remembering Donald Triplett, the first person ever to be diagnosed with autism (19:25).

    February 7th, 2023. Why the US Allowed the Chinese Spy Balloon to Cross the US.

    February 7th, 2023. Why the US Allowed the Chinese Spy Balloon to Cross the US.
    It’s February 7th. You’re listening to the President’s Daily Brief. Your morning intel starts now. ------ A good day to you, ladies and gentlemen. I’ve got four briefs for you this morning that are shaping America — and the world. First, an update on the Chinese Spy Balloon saga. It turns out my counsel to you all yesterday was spot on regarding one thing in particular. We’ll discuss it. Second, we’ve spoken a lot about a potential war between the US and China over the island of Taiwan. But if war ever came, would the Taiwanese people actually stand up and fight? I’ve got an answer. Third, an update to the Drone Wars in Ukraine. The country of Iran has agreed to help build a drone factory in Russia to keep Moscow fully supplied for years to come. Fourth, a brief on Dirty Green Energy / but it is unlike anything we’ve talked about before. It involves the deep ocean, and it takes us all the way back to the 1960s with CIA spies and a connection to sunken Soviet submarine. Later, we close out the podcast with a quick brief about tonight’s State of the Union address in Washington DC on the topic of debt and deficits. ----- Please remember to subscribe if you enjoyed this episode of the President's Daily Brief.
