Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, we cover new data showing the exodus of over two million foreigners under President Trump, an FBI shift toward immigration enforcement, reports of police “cooking the books” on crime, fresh Antifa terror threats, a major arrest in California’s deadly Palisades fire, and breaking news on New York Attorney General Letitia James’s indictment. We’ll also look abroad at the Gaza peace deal, China’s mineral squeeze, Argentina’s bailout, Finland’s icebreaker partnership, and research on finding daily hope.

Quick hits to set your radar for the weekend.

 

Trump’s Immigration Victory:
The Center for Immigration Studies confirmed that 1.65 million illegal aliens have left the U.S. since Trump took office, along with 550,000 legal migrants, totaling 2.2 million fewer foreign residents. That equals roughly 20 to 25 percent of those who entered under Biden, marking faster progress than expected.

 

FBI Turns to Immigration Enforcement:
A quarter of FBI agents are now focused on immigration, with the figure reaching 40 percent in large field offices. Critics call it a misuse of resources, but Bryan argues that with 185,000 Chinese illegal aliens in the U.S., “it stands to reason” the shift is justified.

 

DC Crime Data Under Investigation:
Forty Washington, D.C. officers are cooperating with a DOJ probe into whether city leaders falsified crime statistics. Officers say politicians and senior brass “cooked the books” to hide rising crime.

 

Antifa Plans ‘Laser Tag’ Attacks on ICE Helicopters:
The group is urging followers to flood Portland skies with handheld lasers to down federal aircraft. Bryan reminds listeners: “Antifa is not an idea or peaceful — they are terrorists.”

 

Palisades Fire Suspect Arrested:
A 29-year-old Florida man and Biden donor was charged in California’s fire that killed 12 people and caused $150 billion in damage. Investigators say his phone data placed him at the scene.

 

Letitia James Indicted for Mortgage Fraud:
New York’s Attorney General, who campaigned on prosecuting Trump, faces bank fraud charges for falsifying records on two homes and claiming her father was her husband to secure favorable loans. Bryan quips, “Karma is quite something, isn’t it?”

 

Gaza Peace Advances:
Israel’s cabinet approved Trump’s ceasefire plan, including 2,000 prisoner releases, partial troop withdrawals, and European-Egyptian patrols in Gaza. Trump will visit the region for a signing ceremony.

 

UAE AI Chip Deal:
The U.S. authorized Nvidia sales worth billions to the UAE in exchange for a $1.4 trillion investment pledge. Critics warn of Chinese espionage risks.

 

China Tightens Rare Earth Exports:
Beijing imposed new restrictions on key minerals to pressure Trump before trade talks. Analysts expect new U.S. investments in domestic mining to follow.

 

U.S. Backs Argentina’s Milei:
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent bought Argentine pesos to stabilize the economy ahead of Milei’s election battle against socialists.

 

Finland Icebreaker Deal:
The U.S. and Finland agreed to co-produce 11 new icebreakers, expanding the Coast Guard’s fleet to 13 ships for Arctic defense and trade.

 

U.S. Sinks More Narco Boats:
The Navy destroyed at least five cartel vessels in the Caribbean as Trump halted diplomatic talks with Venezuela.

 

Study Finds Hope Reduces Stress:
Researchers discovered that short daily videos of inspiration reduce anxiety more effectively than meditation. Bryan closes, “The path to happiness and less stress is hope.”
