Desperate Tehran Quietly Reaches Out to End the War

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:

- First up — Iran may be looking for a way out. Reports say Iranian intelligence quietly reached out to the CIA through a third country to explore possible talks about ending the war. But is the White House answering the call? President Trump says it may already be “too late” for negotiations.

- Later in the show — tensions remain high in the Strait of Hormuz as the White House considers deploying U.S. naval escorts to protect oil tankers moving through the critical shipping lane.

- Plus — the United States opens a new front in the fight against drug traffickers, launching joint military operations in Ecuador targeting criminal groups now labeled as terrorist organizations.

- And in today’s Back of the Brief — Washington turns up the pressure on Venezuela as the Trump administration reportedly prepares a criminal indictment against the country’s interim leader, Delcy Rodriguez.
