It's July 11th.

You're listening to the President's Daily Brief.

I'm your host and former CIA officer Brian Dean Wright.

Your morning intel starts now.

The brief you're about to hear is in the same spirit of the actual President's Daily Brief,

which is a top secret summary of the most critical events in the past 24 hours, all delivered

to the President each day by the nation's spy masters.

And so ladies and gentlemen, I am your spy, and this is your brief.

Here's what we're going to be talking about this morning.

First up, an aluminum mill in Kentucky is shutting down, all because of the natural gas

wars in Europe.

I'll explain what's going on and why it could actually get worse.

As always, I'm keeping an eye out for developing stories, put these two on your radar.

First Mexico's President is on his way to Washington, D.C. this morning, and one of his messages

to the American people is, don't vote for Republicans.

Hmm, I'll explain why.

Finally, the country of Sri Lanka is collapsing this morning.

I'll explain where that is and why organic farming is partly to blame.

All up next on the President's Daily Brief.

Mailchimp would like to talk to you about customers.

customers with very different behaviors into one tangled mess.
