June 22nd, 2026: Iran Just Closed The Strait Of Hormuz Again

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: • First up—Iran says the Strait of Hormuz is closed again, just days after signing a Memorandum of Understanding with the United States. We'll look at why the fighting in Lebanon is threatening to derail the deal before negotiations have even begun. • Later in the show—after more than 50 days of disruptive roadblocks, Bolivia's president is escalating the government's response to deadly anti-government protests, deploying the military and declaring emergency powers to restore order. • Plus—Ukraine continues turning the screws on occupied Crimea, forcing Russian authorities to suspend civilian gasoline sales after a series of strikes targeting fuel supplies across the peninsula. • In today's Back of the Brief—relations between Poland and Ukraine hit another rough patch after President Zelenskyy returned Poland's highest state honor in a dispute rooted in World War II history.
