    May 1st, 2026: IRAN IN “DEATH SPIRAL”: Economy Crumbling Fast & A Russia-Ukraine Ceasefire?

    01/05/2026 | 25 mins.
    In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:

    First up—new signs Iran’s economy is entering what some analysts are calling a “death spiral,” as soaring inflation, mass unemployment, and a collapsing currency pile pressure on the regime amid war and blockade.

    Later in the show—Trump and Putin float a temporary cease-fire in Ukraine, even as Kyiv launches a long-range strike deep inside Russian territory, raising fresh doubts about whether any pause in fighting can hold.

    Plus—as war intensifies in Mali, analysts are warning jihadist groups could be on the verge of carving out an African caliphate, as militants push closer to the capital and security forces struggle to hold the line.

    And in today’s Back of the Brief—the Pentagon reveals the cost of U.S. military operations in Iran has already reached 25 billion dollars, with that number expected to climb as the conflict continues.
