July 29th, 2026: Iran's Economy Is On The Brink Of Collapse & Zelensky & Netanyahu In Washington

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: After weeks of U.S. airstrikes, the Trump administration is increasingly betting that economic pressure—not bombs—will be the decisive factor in its confrontation with Iran. I'll explain why officials believe Tehran's economy is approaching a breaking point. President Trump hosts Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for a pair of high-stakes meetings at the White House, with Iran and the war in Ukraine dominating the agenda. The Trump administration prepares a major increase in funding to counter China's expanding global influence through new diplomatic, economic, and strategic initiatives. In today's Back of the Brief, a new investigation suggests Russia declared its feared RS-28 Sarmat "Doomsday" missile operational years before it was actually ready for deployment.
