July 10th, 2026: The Revolutionary Guard Just Took Control Of Iran

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:

• Even as U.S. and Iranian forces continue exchanging strikes, a new power structure is quietly taking shape inside Tehran. We examine who is really running Iran following the death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei—and why the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps may now be the country's true center of gravity.

• We take you inside the Oval Office as new intelligence convinced President Trump to abandon the Iran ceasefire, prompting a return to military action against Tehran.

• Mexican authorities investigate whether the FBI played a secret role in the dramatic capture of cartel kingpin Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, raising fresh tensions between Washington and Mexico City.

• In today's Back of the Brief, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan sends NATO leaders home with one of the most unusual summit gifts in recent memory: engraved revolvers—and live ammunition.
