Gabbard has apparently consulted current and former intelligence officials for solutions. One possibility would be to turn the briefings into videos styled after Fox News, four sources told the outlet in its report published Saturday. The President’s Daily Brief, or PDB, is currently a daily digital document containing text, graphics, and images. In order to carry out this new approach, the national intelligence director’s office could even hire one of Fox News’ talking heads and one of the network’s producers. Gabbard herself was a
paid contributor to the network.
Trump has received the PDB, which can influence the president’s decisions, just 14 times since he took office, according to his public schedule. During his first administration, the PDB was changed to a one-page outline that included less writing and more pictures, and was presented verbally. He received the briefing 55 times during this same period in 2017. President Joe Biden had received 90 PDBs by this time.
