October 6th, 2026: Iran Is Losing Control of Its Biggest Bargaining Chip & U.S. Moves B-1 Bombers

In this episode of The President’s Daily Brief:

• Iran’s biggest bargaining chip may be starting to lose its value, as Gulf oil exports recover to prewar levels while pressure grows on the Houthis around Bab el-Mandeb.

• The United States has pulled all of its B-1 bombers out of a key British air base amid security concerns surrounding suspected plots targeting the facility.

• A former Russian serviceman accused by Ukraine of torturing prisoners of war has been killed in a car bombing inside Russia.

• In today’s Back of the Brief, the FBI has arrested a woman accused of spying for China after she allegedly surveilled the U.S.-based son of Taiwan’s president.
