In this episode, we delve into the secretive world of presidential intelligence briefings, tracing their evolution from the rudimentary efforts of the Pinkerton National Detective Agency to the sophisticated President's Daily Brief (PDB) of today. We'll explore how President Truman, amidst post-WWII turmoil, insisted on an independent, objective analysis of international events, leading to the creation of the Daily Summary. Learn how bureaucratic battles, the Korean War, and the strategic minds of leaders like Eisenhower shaped these briefings into vital tools of presidential power. Join us as we uncover the history, the challenges, and the transformation of intelligence in the White House.
