In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: Washington tightens the economic noose on Iran, expanding its naval blockade worldwide while cutting off key oil waivers—moves that could choke Tehran’s economy and raise the risk of a confrontation at sea. In a move the U.S. hasn’t seen since World War II, the Pentagon is in talks with General Motors and Ford about shifting production to weapons and military hardware.
