March 21st, 2025: Pentagon Mulls Controversial Global Shakeup Of Military Command & Turkey In Turmoil Over Arrest Of Key Erdogan Rival

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: First up, the Pentagon is considering a major shake-up in U.S. military command, prompting the Republican chairmen of the Senate and House Armed Services committees to issue a rare joint statement warning the Trump administration the move risks undermining American deterrence around the globe. Later in the show, amid talks of a partial ceasefire between Moscow and Kyiv, Ukraine launched a major strike against a critical Russian strategic bomber airfield, dealing a blow to the Kremlin's aerial capabilities. Plus, protests erupt in Turkey after authorities arrested the top political rival of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, a move the opposition condemned as an undemocratic "coup attempt." In our 'Back of the Brief' segment, the U.S. State Department has issued a $15 million bounty for a Chinese national and three accomplices accused of smuggling sensitive military technology to Iran for nearly 20 years.
