The President's Daily Brief (PDB), sometimes referred to as
the President's Daily Briefing or the President's Daily Bulletin, is a
top-secret document produced each morning for the President of the United
States. Responsibility for producing the PDB — which was traditionally that of
the director of the Central Intelligence Agency — was transferred to the
Director of National Intelligence on April 21, 2005, upon the confirmation of
John Negroponte by the Senate.
