In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:

First up— a New Year’s Eve terror plot disrupted. Federal authorities arrest multiple suspects accused of planning coordinated bombing attacks across Southern California and Los Angeles. We’ll break down what investigators say was planned—and how close this came to becoming something far worse.
Later in the show— a potential shift in naval warfare. Ukraine claims it used an underwater drone to cripple a Russian Kilo-class submarine in the Black Sea. If confirmed, it could reshape how modern naval conflicts are fought.
Plus, an Israeli strike kills a senior Hamas commander in Gaza, drawing sharp criticism from the Trump administration over an alleged ceasefire violation.

And in today’s Back of the Brief— the latest on the Brown University shooting, as police release the person of interest and continue their search for the suspect.
