19 SEPT 2025: Special Report and Personal Reflection: Jimmy Kimmel vs. Charlie Kirk
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this special Friday edition of The Wright Report, we cover the Jimmy Kimmel controversy, FCC pressure, and whether America has entered a new era of censorship and government tyranny. From late-night lies to free speech double standards, today’s brief asks whether we are witnessing a dangerous new chapter — or simply the continuation of a fight that began years ago. Jimmy Kimmel Controversy: Kimmel refused to apologize after falsely claiming Charlie Kirk’s assassin was a MAGA supporter. ABC pulled him off the air, citing legal obligations under FCC rules against “news distortion.” Democrats Cry Censorship: Chuck Schumer compared Trump’s FCC pressure to Xi and Putin, Barack Obama called it “a dangerous level,” and Jen Psaki declared it tyranny. Yet all three have histories of supporting government intimidation of conservatives. Media and GOP Reactions: CNN’s Brian Stelter warned America is now “less free,” though he once justified cracking down on conservatives. Republicans like Guy Benson urged caution, warning the precedent could backfire. The Wall Street Journal editorial board argued deregulation of TV oversight is the only long-term fix. Bryan’s Analysis: “We don’t live in a functional society anymore. We live in a revolutionary state… either one side wins or the other does. The Left isn’t tired of fighting. They want war. Their words, not mine.” Bryan calls for peaceful victories in politics and law — but warns more Charlie Kirks may fall before the nation finds peace. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Jimmy Kimmel FCC suspension, Charlie Kirk assassin MAGA claim, ABC news distortion rule, Chuck Schumer censorship Xi Putin, Barack Obama free speech hypocrisy, Jen Psaki Biden COVID censorship, Brian Stelter freedom of reach, Guy Benson FCC caution, Wall Street Journal deregulation media oversight, Bryan Dean Wright censorship analysis

18 SEPT 2025: ABC Cracks Down on Anti-Charlie Rants // New Antifa Terror Designation // China’s Highway Spies // AI Kills Kids // Global News: Ukraine, Russia, Iran
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover Trump’s controversial talks in the UK that could send private contractors into Ukraine, Russia’s escalating assassination plots across Europe, Israel’s success in targeting Iranian leaders, ABC’s firing of Jimmy Kimmel, Trump’s new terror designation for Antifa, China’s spy devices on U.S. highways, and the Senate grilling AI companies over deadly chatbot failures. From espionage abroad to chaos at home, today’s brief connects foreign spy wars, domestic terror, and America’s struggle with technology. Trump in the UK and a Private Army for Ukraine: Reports suggest Trump may authorize U.S. veterans as contractors to embed with Ukrainian forces or protect new American mining projects. The president insists, “We’re not getting involved. No troops on the ground. Contractors only.” Critics warn it could still spark conflict if Russia attacks U.S. citizens. Russia’s “New Skins” Assassins in Germany: Bloomberg reports Moscow is targeting European defense executives, including Rheinmetall’s CEO, after Russian arsonists torched his property. Bryan warns Biden’s open border may have let “New Skins” into America: “It defies logic that the answer is zero.” Israel’s “Operation Red Wedding” Revealed: Israeli intelligence tracked Iranian bodyguards’ cell phones, enabling the assassination of dozens of regime leaders this summer. Bryan reminds listeners, “Your electronic devices are not your friends. They can and will be used against you.” ABC Fires Jimmy Kimmel Over Kirk Coverage: After mocking Charlie Kirk’s assassination, Kimmel refused to apologize. VP JD Vance praised networks like Sinclair for airing a Kirk tribute instead, while Democrats blasted the move as censorship. Bryan argues, “Do we have free speech for everybody, or just when it’s convenient?” Trump Labels Antifa a Terror Group: The administration formally designates Antifa as domestic terrorists. Trump contrasted this with Biden’s DHS, which once warned Christians and veterans were the top terror threat. “What a difference a year makes,” Bryan notes. China’s Spy Devices Found in Highway Systems: The Federal Highway Administration discovered Chinese-made batteries and inverters embedded with cellular radios inside road signs and traffic cameras. Bryan warns these could spread chaos in a crisis: “It’ll include in a road sign near you.” AI Chatbots Blamed for Teen Suicides: Parents testified that ChatGPT coached their children into self-harm. One case involved knot-tying instructions for hanging. OpenAI claims chatbots have “First Amendment rights,” while researchers admit they were trained to always give answers, even if wrong. Bryan reflects, “The answer to happiness — and loneliness — was not in a device… as Charlie Kirk counseled, that’s found elsewhere.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Trump UK Ukraine contractors, U.S. private army Ukraine mining, Russia New Skins assassins Germany, Rheinmetall CEO arson, Israel Operation Red Wedding Iran assassinations, Jimmy Kimmel Charlie Kirk firing, Sinclair Charlie Kirk tribute, Trump Antifa terror designation, Biden DHS veterans Christians threat, Chinese spy devices U.S. highways, Federal Highway Administration China inverters, AI chatbot suicide Adam Raine, ChatGPT hallucination error, OpenAI First Amendment defense, loneliness Gen Z AI companions Charlie Kirk advice

| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the charging of Charlie Kirk’s assassin, Trump’s high-stakes trip to the UK, Germany’s political and cultural reckoning, Denmark’s Greenland pivot, and an unexpected health study on building muscle. From courtroom revelations to foreign policy clashes and even workout science, today’s brief connects the dots shaping America’s security and daily life. Charlie Kirk Assassin Formally Charged: Tyler Robinson faces aggravated murder charges with Utah prosecutors seeking the death penalty. Text messages revealed him telling his trans boyfriend, “I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I’m going to take it.” Robinson bragged about “engraving bullets” and retrieving his rifle from a “drop point.” Senator Mike Lee warned of possible Cuban and Iranian ties to Armed Queers Salt Lake City, while critics blasted ABC News for framing the texts as a “very intimate portrait.” Bryan warns, “This is bigger than one loner assassin… this is a puzzle piece that fits into a Leftist revolution.” Trump Visits the UK Amid Socialist Criticism: London Mayor Sadiq Khan attacked Trump as a xenophobe fanning “far-right politics,” even as King Charles prepared a lavish welcome. Trump will meet with Prime Minister Keir Starmer and may also meet Reform UK’s Nigel Farage, a move described as “Make Great Britain Great Again.” Bryan says such a meeting would be “sweet revenge” after Labour staffers campaigned for Kamala Harris in U.S. swing states last year. Germany’s Reckoning with AfD Surge: The populist AfD party won record support in western Germany as voters revolt over high energy prices, economic stagnation, and radical Islam. A spate of Islamist terror attacks and growing “no-go zones” in Berlin add to fears, while reports mock German workers as lazier than Greeks or Italians. One slacker told reporters, “There are other parts of life besides work, you know.” Denmark’s Greenland Pivot: After Trump’s pressure to secure Greenland, Denmark pledged $250 million for new runways, ports, and defenses against China and Russia. The timing of the announcement — as Trump landed in London — highlighted Denmark’s attempt to appease U.S. demands without ceding sovereignty. Finland and Poland Revive Bog Defenses: Officials plan to restore swamps and peat bogs along Russian borders to bog down invading tanks, reviving a centuries-old defense strategy. Baltic nations may follow, though Germany dismissed the idea as too costly. Health Research on Muscle Building: Illinois researchers found that lean pork after workouts builds more muscle than fattier cuts, adding to past findings that whole eggs and fresh salmon outperform supplements. Bryan quips, “Get strong… you never know when a Leftist might come for you.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson charged, Utah death penalty, Armed Queers Salt Lake City Cuba Iran ties, ABC News Charlie Kirk texts coverage, Trump UK visit Sadiq Khan criticism, King Charles Windsor Castle Trump, Nigel Farage Reform UK meeting, Germany AfD populist surge, German worker laziness Washington Post, Germany Islamist terror Cologne rapes, Denmark Greenland $250 million defense, Finland Poland restore bogs Russia defense, Illinois lean pork muscle building study, whole eggs salmon workout protein

16 SEPT 2025: Trump Investigates the Left for Charlie // US Blows up Venezuelan Drug Boat // TikTok Deal With China // Mineral War With Russia & China // Listener Q&A!
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover Trump’s investigation into the groups behind Charlie Kirk’s assassination, a second Venezuelan drug boat sunk by U.S. forces, the White House deal on TikTok, Trump’s push to revive America’s mining industry, and listener questions on Ilhan Omar, socialism, and whether the U.S. should split in two. From Marxist activists in Utah to uranium mines in Wyoming, today’s brief connects the fights over America’s culture, security, and survival. Trump Investigates Groups Behind Charlie Kirk’s Assassination: The FBI is probing ties between shooter Tyler Robinson and radical groups including Armed Queers Salt Lake City, trans activists, Marxists, online gamers, and even the “Furries.” VP JD Vance vowed to dismantle institutions like the Soros Open Society and Ford Foundation if found complicit, urging Americans: “When you see someone celebrating Charlie’s murder, call them out. And call their employer.” Bryan warns that Marxist Queer Theory’s strategy is to radicalize youth, break families, and build a socialist revolution. U.S. Sinks Second Venezuelan Drug Boat: Trump confirmed the Navy destroyed another cartel vessel, killing three traffickers and scattering cocaine and fentanyl across the sea. “BE WARNED — IF YOU ARE TRANSPORTING DRUGS THAT CAN KILL AMERICANS, WE ARE HUNTING YOU!” he declared. Behind the scenes, Trump’s CIA is quietly working with vetted Mexican Navy and Army units to target cartel leaders, leaving Mexico’s president to deny cooperation in public while relying on U.S. intelligence in private. TikTok Deal With China Raises Concerns: The White House reached a framework deal to keep TikTok running under new U.S. ownership, but China secured concessions on investment barriers and trade. Trump’s team insists Beijing needs the deal more, as China’s economy just suffered its worst month of the year. Bryan warns, “This President likes to make deals with Beijing… I’m nervous.” Trump Builds Uranium Reserve to End Dependence on Russia: Energy Secretary Chris Wright announced a plan to stockpile uranium for America’s 94 nuclear reactors, as Russia still supplies 25 percent of U.S. needs. The administration will repurpose $2 billion in Biden-era funds for critical minerals, including $500 million in cobalt and new reserves of bismuth, a metal once sold off by Bill Clinton. Bryan calls the Mineral Wars “one of Trump’s most important legacies” if successful. Listener Questions — Ilhan Omar, Socialism, and National Divorce: Bryan tells Nichole from Maryland that Omar should face a DNA test with her alleged brother, and if confirmed, be “denaturalized and deported on Air Pinochet.” Robert from Virginia flagged new polling showing Democrats prefer socialism, which Bryan calls “dense and dangerous.” And Morris from the Ozarks asked about national divorce, but Bryan warns partition would collapse America into chaos: “This is our country. We will either defend and reclaim it, or we will fall trying — just like Charlie did.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Charlie Kirk assassination Armed Queers Salt Lake City, Tyler Robinson shooter investigation, JD Vance Soros Ford Foundation quote, Queer Theory Marxism youth radicalization, Trump Navy sinks Venezuelan drug boat, CIA Mexico cartel targeting, Trump TikTok China deal, China economic slowdown August 2025, Trump uranium reserve Chris Wright, U.S. cobalt bismuth mineral wars, Ilhan Omar DNA brother marriage fraud, Democrat socialism poll Data for Progress, Marjorie Taylor Greene national divorce

15 SEPT 2025: Charlie Kirk’s Murder: Trans, Leftist Terror to Blame… Dems Respond // Global News: Iran’s Nukes / Israel’s War Plans / Russia’s Drone Probes / AI Chooses New Leader of Nepal!
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the arrest of Charlie Kirk’s assassin and the ideological forces behind the murder, plus global updates from Iran, Israel, Ukraine, Poland, and Nepal. From the tragedy in Utah to AI choosing world leaders, today’s brief brings the facts you need to understand America’s crossroads at home and abroad. Charlie Kirk Assassin Arrested: Utah officials confirmed 22-year-old Tyler Robinson confessed to family and friends after FBI photos, his car, and his leftist ideology tied him to the crime. His boyfriend, Lance “Luna” Twiggs, is cooperating with investigators, raising questions about extremist networks in Utah. Erika Kirk vowed Turning Point USA will continue, declaring, “You have no idea the fire that you have ignited within this wife… We will never surrender.” Polls now show 24% of very liberal Democrats say they take joy in political killings - 20% are unsure if they should. Political Divide Over Violence: Republicans launch a special committee to probe leftist violence, while Democrats dismiss ideology as a motive. Senator Brian Schatz argued, “What f’ing difference does it make if this murderer was left or right.” Utah’s Governor Cox blamed the internet, while Illinois’ Governor Pritzker pointed at Trump. Bryan warns, “We live in a revolution. Their revolution. And if you disagree with them, you’re to be targeted.” Iran’s Nuclear Program Weakened but Not Dead: Israeli intel confirms Trump’s strikes crippled Tehran’s enrichment capacity for years, though knowledge and equipment remain. Israel’s defenses, however, are drained and need time to recover, meaning future operations will likely be covert. Israel Rules Out Palestinian State: Prime Minister Netanyahu announced, “There will never be a Palestinian state. This place is ours.” Trump’s administration is weighing a U.S.-run Gaza plan that would pay Palestinians to leave, though it has already been rejected by Arab powers. Russian Drones Probe NATO Airspace: Dozens of Russian drones crossed into Poland and Romania, triggering NATO alerts. Trump suggested it was a mistake, but Poland’s president insisted, “We know it wasn’t.” Zelenskyy pressed NATO to shoot intruding drones down next time. AI Picks New Leaders in Nepal and Beyond: After protests toppled Nepal’s communist PM, students asked ChatGPT to name a successor. The AI chose former Chief Justice Sushila Karki, now sworn in as interim prime minister. Asked who should lead America, ChatGPT named Michelle Obama and Cory Booker, dismissing JD Vance as “too polarizing.” Bryan warns, “Seems like something we should watch… since AI is choosing our leaders now.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Charlie Kirk assassination arrest Tyler Robinson, Lance Luna Twiggs trans extremist, Erika Kirk Turning Point vow, YouGov poll political violence Democrats, Senator Brian Schatz internet quote, Governor Spencer Cox internet blame, Governor JB Pritzker Trump blame, Iran nuclear program Israeli intel, Netanyahu no Palestinian state quote, Trump Gaza US-run plan, Russian drones Poland Romania NATO, Zelenskyy NATO shoot down drones, Nepal protests ChatGPT prime minister Sushila Karki, ChatGPT Michelle Obama Cory Booker JD Vance AI bias

In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, we cover new details on Charlie Kirk’s assassination, major economic signals ahead of a Fed decision, Senate Republicans’ “nuclear option” on confirmations, Trump’s crackdown on drug ads, immigration fallout with South Korea, and global headlines from Sweden, Germany, and North Korea. Quick hits to set your radar for the weekend. Charlie Kirk’s Final Flight and Killer Hunt: VP JD Vance escorted Kirk’s body home on Air Force Two, calling him “a true friend” and vowing, “You ran a good race, my friend. We’ve got it from here.” Investigators recovered a Mauser rifle and cartridges allegedly marked with Antifa and transgender slogans. The assassin, still at large, is described as a man in his mid-20s. Economic Warning Lights: Producer inflation drops as businesses eat tariff costs, but jobless claims hit a four-year high. Analysts expect a quarter- to half-point Fed rate cut next week. Senate GOP Fast-Tracks Trump Nominees: Republicans changed rules to bypass Democrat obstruction, clearing the way for 150 stalled executive branch picks. Judicial nominees remain vulnerable to Democrat blockades. Trump Targets Big Pharma Ads: An executive order ends the 1997 loophole allowing short TV drug ads. Pharma may face five-minute disclosures, threatening billions in ad revenue for networks like CNN and Fox. Immigration Fallout with South Korea: Hyundai’s Korean workers arrested in Georgia say they warned bosses their visas were illegal. Seoul warns investment may cool without faster visa reform, while Trump explores expedited paths for specialized labor. Sweden’s Child Hitmen and Migrant Payoffs: Gangs recruit boys as young as 12 to kill, exploiting loopholes in juvenile law. Sweden will lower prosecution age and pay $34K per migrant to return home. Germany’s Migrant Dilemma: Only 1,300 of 1 million Syrian migrants accepted $1,500 to leave. Meanwhile, 80,000 a year gain citizenship, fueling AfD’s rise. North Korea Intrigue and U.S. Ops: Kim Jong Un parades his 12-year-old daughter as heir, though his son may be hidden abroad. A failed SEAL Team 6 mission six years ago revealed how close the U.S. came to planting a spy device inside North Korea.

11 SEPT 2025: The Murder of Charlie Kirk: Why It Matters to All of Us // Global News: Poland Attack / Venezuelan Strike / Mexican Tariffs / Tennessee & China Fight / News of Sept 11 Attacks / Request for Prayer
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk, Russian drones breaching NATO airspace, Trump’s war on Venezuela’s cartels, Mexico’s tariff fight with China, a pharmaceutical victory in Tennessee, and new revelations in the 9/11 families’ lawsuit against Saudi Arabia. From political violence at home to dangerous escalations abroad, today’s brief carries heavy news on a day of prayer and remembrance. Charlie Kirk Assassinated in Utah: The 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder was gunned down while speaking at Utah Valley University. President Trump called him “a martyr for truth and freedom” and ordered flags at half-staff. Video shows a sniper shot to the neck from a rooftop as Kirk addressed thousands of students. MSNBC sparked outrage with coverage that suggested Kirk’s “awful words” made his death inevitable. Bryan warns, “The seal has now been broken: if you make those arguments or say those words, you’re fair game too.” Russian Drones Violate Polish Airspace: NATO confirms 19 Russian drones flew over 150 miles into Poland, with several shot down by Dutch and Polish jets. Bryan cautions that even an accident could spark a “Gulf of Tonkin–like incident” dragging NATO into direct war with Moscow. Trump Escalates War on Venezuela’s Cartels: After U.S. forces sank a drug boat killing 11, critics accuse Trump of overstepping presidential authority. War Secretary Pete Hegseth countered: “This strike sent a clear message: If you traffic drugs toward our shores, the United States military will stop you cold.” Mexico Tariffs Chinese Imports: President Claudia Sheinbaum hikes tariffs on Chinese cars and textiles to 50 percent, aiming to shield Mexican workers and appease Trump’s demands to close tariff loopholes. Bryan notes this could undercut Beijing’s backdoor into U.S. markets. Saving U.S. Antibiotics in Tennessee: Trump brokers a deal forcing Walmart and McKesson to buy amoxicillin from Bristol, Tennessee, rescuing America’s last antibiotic factory from collapse. “Don’t bet against America,” Bryan says, “because with leadership that actually loves this country, we will win.” 9/11 Families’ Lawsuit Against Saudi Arabia Advances: A New York judge allows families to pursue claims that Saudi intel officers Omar al-Bayoumi and Fahad al-Thumairy aided hijackers. ProPublica reports al-Bayoumi was a Saudi intel asset in the U.S. coordinating with the GIP. Bryan calls for Trump to declassify CIA files: “It’s time for some sunlight on what did or didn’t happen that horrific day.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Take your personal data back with Incogni!

10 SEPT 2025: North Carolina Killer Update: Father & Bro in Prison // Have Job Troubles? Blame Biden // Major Tariff Move On India by US & EU // Global News: Poland/Ukraine, Qatar, Norway, Good Medical News!
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover disturbing new video evidence from the North Carolina stabbing, the true state of Biden’s job market, Trump’s tariff battles heading to the Supreme Court, and global updates from Ukraine to Qatar, Norway, and the medical world. From heartbreaking crime footage to surprising breakthroughs in medicine, today’s brief connects law, politics, and science shaping your life. Full Video of North Carolina Stabbing Released: The shocking footage shows Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska stabbed on a Charlotte light rail while bystanders failed to help for nearly a minute. Bryan calls it proof of “the state of this country.” Federal prosecutors charged Decarlos Brown, with CNN reporting he may face the death penalty. Even Brown’s family admits the Democrat-run system failed him, as he told relatives the victim was “reading his mind” that night. Biden’s Job Market Collapse Exposed: The Labor Department revised Biden’s final year in office, showing nearly 1 million fewer jobs created than reported. Bryan explains that instead of 200,000 jobs a month needed to absorb Biden’s border surge, the economy created only 70,000. “The data show you can blame Joe Biden — and his open borders policies.” Trump’s Tariffs Head to the Supreme Court: Small businesses will challenge Trump’s sweeping tariffs in November. Trump warned, “If allowed to stand, this Decision would literally destroy the United States of America.” Meanwhile, he pushes Europe to join a 100 percent tariff on India and China for fueling Russia’s war. Bryan says the move could spark “dramatic and unforeseeable consequences.” Global Updates — Ukraine, Poland, Israel, Norway: Ukraine quietly buys Russian diesel through India, prolonging the war. Russian drones crossed into Polish airspace near a NATO hub, raising fears of a Gulf of Tonkin–style incident. Israel shocked the region by striking Hamas leaders in Qatar, killing five plus a Qatari intel officer. In Norway, young men powered a populist surge, making the Progress Party the nation’s second largest force. Medical Breakthroughs in Arthritis, Addiction, and Cancer: UK scientists develop “smart cartilage” that senses arthritis flare-ups and releases drugs on demand. Swedish researchers discover Ozempic curbs cocaine cravings. And the University of Michigan finds that restricting amino acids in the diet slows glioblastoma brain cancer, giving hope where it’s rare.

| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the shocking stabbing death of a Ukrainian refugee in North Carolina, fresh polling on America’s youth drifting toward socialism, and global headlines from South Korea, Argentina, France, and China. From crime and ideology at home to economic and political turmoil abroad, today’s brief shows how policies and power struggles are reshaping America and the world. North Carolina Stabbing Case and Media Silence: Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska was murdered by Decarlos Brown, a repeat offender with schizophrenia and over 14 arrests. Released by Judge Teresa Stokes under restorative justice policies, Brown stabbed her on a Charlotte light rail after muttering, “I got the white girl.” Bryan argues, “This case isn’t just about one victim and one perp. It’s about a nation that is broken.” America’s Youth Drift Left — Socialism Rising: NBC, Rasmussen, and Gallup reveal stark generational divides. Democrat youth rank money and emotional stability above marriage, children, or faith, while Trump-voting men list kids as their top priority. Polling shows 53 percent of Americans under 40 favor a socialist president in 2028. Bryan warns, “We are living in the midst of a Leftist Revolution.” South Korea Furious Over Georgia ICE Raid: Seoul condemns ICE for arresting 475 illegal Korean workers at Hyundai’s battery plant. Trump responded, “[We] don’t have people in this country who know about batteries… Maybe we should help them along and let some [Korean] people come in and train our people.” Critics warn expanded H1-B visas could enrage Trump’s working-class base. Argentina’s Marxists Make a Comeback: Markets tank after the Peronist Party’s unexpected win in Buenos Aires. President Javier Milei admitted the result was “much worse than expected” but vowed to continue his reforms, calling for “deep self-criticism.” France’s Government Collapses Again: Prime Minister François Bayrou lost a no-confidence vote, the third government collapse in a year. With debt at 114 percent of GDP, President Macron faces the choice of a new prime minister, snap elections, or stepping down. LeBron James Pens Op-Ed for China: The NBA star praised China as “passionate and friendly” in a CCP newspaper essay, aiming to restore NBA access to the Chinese market after years of bans. Bryan calls it a clear case of “red Communist money turning bright American green.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Take your personal data back with Incogni!

Jobs Report Disappoints: Only 22,000 jobs were added in August, with revisions showing losses in June. Native-born employment is rising as 820,000 foreign workers have left, but debate rages over whether the culprits are Jerome Powell’s high rates, Trump’s tariff wars, Silicon Valley’s AI revolution, or Biden’s weak foundation.

Zelenskyy Criticizes Trump Over Alaska Summit: The Ukrainian president told ABC it was “a pity” Trump gave Putin legitimacy. Yet he admitted, “President Trump is right about the Europeans,” as EU nations import record Russian gas despite sanctions. Department of Defense Renamed: The White House rebrands it the Department of War, reflecting a more aggressive posture from Venezuela to Ukraine and the Pacific.

04 SEPT 2025: Troops to New Orleans // Battle for 2026 & Burning the US Flag // Immigration Debates: From US Truckers Speaking English to European Agitators Doxxing ICE Officials
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover Trump’s possible deployment of troops to New Orleans, the midterm election battle shaping up for 2026, and a fierce immigration debate stretching from U.S. highways to European activists targeting ICE. From National Guard authority to flag-burning bans and AI unmasking ICE agents, today’s brief tackles the clashes defining law, politics, and national security. Trump Eyes New Orleans for National Guard Deployment: The president said, “We’re going to maybe go to Louisiana… to New Orleans… which has a crime problem. We’ll straighten that out in about two weeks.” Legal experts point to Title 32 as his cleanest authority since Louisiana’s GOP governor could cooperate, while Title 10 would let Trump bypass Democrat governors in states like Maryland. Bryan warns the line between “assistance” and “domination” is tricky but notes polls show 55 percent of Americans support using troops to help local police. The Battle for 2026 Midterms Heats Up: Both parties are planning national conventions before the elections, an unusual move for a midterm year. Trump promises to leverage America’s 250th anniversary celebrations with a 1,500-foot-long flag and a crackdown on flag burning. “If you burn a flag, you get one year in jail, no early exits, no nothing,” Trump said. Democrats argue free speech, while Bryan asks: “When we say ‘Out of Many, One,’ what exactly makes us ‘one’?” Immigration Debate — English for Truckers, Fines for Illegals, and AI Doxxing of ICE Agents: After fatal accidents tied to foreign truck drivers who couldn’t read English road signs, Republicans are pushing “Connor’s Law” and the Safer Truckers Act to restore English requirements. Meanwhile, Trump’s team is slapping illegals with fines up to $1,000 per day, turning some cases over to debt collectors and even the IRS. In Europe, activist Dominick Skinner is using AI to unmask U.S. ICE officers online. Bryan warns, “These Democrats and Leftists are not tracking down ICE officers to have a cup of coffee. They’re looking to drop Molotov cocktails on their heads.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Trump National Guard New Orleans, Title 32 vs Title 10 authority, Trump crime crackdown polls, 2026 midterm conventions Trump Democrats, America 250th anniversary giant flag, Trump flag burning ban Supreme Court, Connor’s Law Safer Truckers Act English requirement, immigrant truck driver fatal crash, Trump fines illegal immigrants $1000 per day, ICE debt collectors IRS, Dominick Skinner AI doxxing ICE agents, Marsha Blackburn Protecting Law Enforcement from Doxxing Act

03 SEPT 2025: Global Roundup: Trump Targets Venezuela // Mexican Cartels and Screwworms // Lesson From Canada // Free Speech Under Attack in Europe // India & China Grow Closer // XI’s Military Parade
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we go around the globe for breaking updates on Trump’s strike in Venezuela, Mexico’s trade and cartel challenges, Canada’s housing lesson, Europe’s political revolt, the free speech crisis in the UK, and China’s bid to reshape global power. From warships in the Caribbean to propaganda in Tiananmen Square, today’s brief delivers the facts you need to navigate a rapidly changing world. Trump Authorizes Strike on Venezuelan Drug Boat: The U.S. military sank a Tren de Aragua vessel, killing 11 narco-terrorists. Trump warned, “Please let this serve as notice to anybody even thinking about bringing drugs into the United States of America. BEWARE!” With warships and Marines stationed nearby, speculation grows that regime change could be on the table, despite White House denials. Secretary Rubio in Mexico for Trade, Cartels, and Screwworms: President Sheinbaum raises tariffs on China under Trump’s pressure, aligning with a “Fortress North America” strategy. Poverty in Mexico drops by 13 million, but reports credit Trump’s 2018 labor reforms. Meanwhile, cartel boss El Mayo admitted decades of bribing Mexican politicians, and ranchers accuse Sheinbaum of letting screwworm-infested cattle in from Guatemala. Canada’s Immigration Cuts Ease Housing Costs: Bloomberg reports that stricter immigration policies have cooled Canada’s housing crisis. Bryan draws a parallel: if the U.S. removed 15 to 30 million illegals, millions of homes would free up for Americans. Europe Turns Right Amid Free Speech Crackdowns: Conservative parties surge in Germany, France, Italy, and the UK. Yet in Britain, a comedian was arrested for posts about transgender issues, joining thousands jailed yearly for “offensive” speech. VP JD Vance warned such laws amount to “civilizational suicide.” Trump, Europe, and Ukraine’s Stalemate: Trump expressed disappointment in Putin and frustration with Europe’s refusal to send troops, saying peace is delayed by “maximalist demands.” European leaders hesitate, offering only weapons and logistics while rejecting boots on the ground. China Hosts BRICS and Flaunts Military Might: Xi Jinping told India’s Modi, “The globe today is swept by a once-in-a-century transformation,” signaling closer ties between Beijing and New Delhi. At a Tiananmen Square parade, Xi showcased drones and weapons while erasing U.S. contributions in WWII. Trump hit back online: “Please give my warmest regards to Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un as you conspire against The United States of America.” Bryan warns Xi’s rise represents a “new Dark Age” for humanity if unchecked. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Trump Venezuela drug boat strike, Tren de Aragua narco-terrorists, Marco Rubio Mexico City talks, Mexico tariffs on China, Mexican poverty drop Trump labor reforms, El Mayo cartel bribes, screwworm outbreak Guatemala cattle, Canada immigration housing shortage, Europe populist conservative surge, UK comedian arrested free speech, JD Vance civilizational suicide UK, Trump Europe Ukraine peace talks, Xi Jinping BRICS Modi meeting, China Tiananmen military parade, Trump Xi Putin Kim social media post

02 SEPT 2025: Trans Terror — Regret, Marijuana, and the Parents // Trump’s March on Us Crime — and Chicago // Tariff Strategy Upended // Trump Questions Vaccines — and the Deep State
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover new revelations about the Minneapolis trans shooter’s family and manifesto, fresh polling on Trump’s crime crackdown, a major court battle over tariffs, and Trump’s firing spree across the federal government. From tragic lessons in Minnesota to seismic fights in Washington, today’s brief connects crime, economics, and politics shaping America’s future. Trans Shooter’s Family Secrets and Final Words: Robert Westman’s manifesto admitted, “Gender and weed f***’ed up my head… I wish I never tried experimenting with either.” He blamed his father for pushing him into transitioning and his mother for warning he would regret it, writing, “You were right mama, but the way you handled it led me to wanting to kill so so many people.” Bryan calls it proof of medical quackery, marijuana’s dangers, and adults failing a child into madness. Trump’s Crime Crackdown Gains Support: A new AP poll shows 53 percent of Americans approve of Trump’s approach, with DC Mayor Muriel Bowser conceding his surge “worked” after carjackings fell 87 percent. She added, “When carjackings go down, neighborhoods feel safer and are safer.” In Chicago, Mayor Brandon Johnson signed an order to resist federal forces, but courts say Trump’s deployments are legal under the Insurrection Act. Court Battle Over Trump’s Tariffs: An appeals court struck down Trump’s sweeping “Liberation Day” tariffs under IEEPA, setting up a Supreme Court fight in October. Trump warned, “If allowed to stand, this Decision would literally destroy the United States of America.” Meanwhile, Trump ended the $800 “de minimis” exemption, slashing it to $200 and rocking supply chains. Some small retailers warn they will go bust, while U.S. tomato growers and flatware makers report new life under tariff protections. Trump Fires Federal Employees and Questions Vaccines: From the EPA to the DOJ to the CIA, Trump is firing staff en masse. At the CDC, he broke from his past support for Operation Warp Speed, declaring, “It is very important that the Drug Companies justify the success of their various Covid Drugs… I want the answer, and I want it NOW.” Meanwhile, Tulsi Gabbard’s revocation of 37 security clearances included a CIA officer just promoted undercover, abruptly ending her 30-year career. Bryan says Trump is cutting with “a chainsaw, not a scalpel” to root out the Deep State. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Robert Westman trans shooter manifesto, gender dysphoria regret, marijuana psychosis mass shooting, Trump crime crackdown poll, Muriel Bowser carjackings down, Brandon Johnson Chicago ICE order, Trump Insurrection Act authority, Trump Liberation Day tariffs, Supreme Court IEEPA case, de minimis exemption $200, U.S. tomato tariffs, Sherill flatware revival, Trump fires CDC CIA EPA DOJ staff, Trump questions Covid vaccines, Tulsi Gabbard CIA clearance revocation

In this Friday Radar Brief of The Wright Report, we cover shocking new details about the Minneapolis trans shooter, a fast-spreading screwworm outbreak, Trump’s crime crackdown, immigration fines, midterm political fights, the AI backlash, and global headlines from Canada, the UK, Europe, and Mexico. Quick hits to set your radar for the weekend. Minneapolis Trans Shooter: Before his suicide, Robert Westman admitted, “I am tired of being trans, I wish I never brain-washed myself.” His confession could spark criminal charges against his parents and doctors. Screwworm Outbreak: Mexico reports a 53 percent spike in cases since July, now topping 5,000. Bryan warns the parasite is “pushing north — and fast.” Trump’s Crime Crackdown: Carjackings in DC are down nearly 90 percent, with even Democrat Mayor Muriel Bowser conceding Trump’s policies are working. Immigration Fines and Checks: Illegals face fines up to $1 million for not registering, though Trump offers self-deportation deals. Citizenship “neighborhood checks” return after a 34-year absence. Midterm Battle Plans: Trump plans a Republican National Convention before the 2026 midterms. Democrats may follow suit, with culture war fights over flag burning, Smithsonian history, and abortion in schools taking center stage. Deep State Fallout: One of Tulsi Gabbard’s clearance revocations included a senior undercover CIA officer, abruptly ending her career. AI Backlash Grows: MIT finds 95 percent of AI pilots fail. Stanford shows AI is wrecking youth job prospects. Meta’s chatbot told a teen how to commit suicide, fueling outrage. Global Flashpoints: Canada’s immigration cuts ease housing costs. The UK faces anti-migrant protests. Poland and Finland plan wetlands as tank barriers. Italy’s Prato erupts with Chinese mafia violence. Mexico denies cartel ties even as bosses call President Sheinbaum a liar.

28 AUG 2025: Trans Terror in Minneapolis // Swatting at US Colleges // Global News: Foreign Spies Steal US Secrets, Iran’s Nukes Buried, Trump’s Greenland Op, Mineral War Update, Radical Islam in Ivory Coast
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the heartbreaking Catholic school shooting in Minneapolis, a wave of swatting attacks targeting U.S. colleges, and global updates from Iran, Greenland, Vietnam, and West Africa. From domestic terror and cultural battles at home to mineral wars and Islamist violence abroad, today’s brief delivers the facts shaping America’s future. Minneapolis Catholic School Shooting: A 23-year-old man who identified as transgender opened fire outside a Catholic school, killing two children and injuring 17 others. In his manifesto he wrote, “I do it to please myself… I do it because I am sick.” The school’s priest begged, “I ask you to — please — pray,” while Democrats like Jen Psaki shot back, “Prayer is not freaking enough.” Bryan calls Psaki’s remarks “a demand of the evil and wicked” and links the shooter’s instability to cross-sex hormones, THC use, and the broader dangers of experimental “gender affirming care.” Swatting Attacks Target U.S. Colleges: Universities from South Carolina to Colorado were hit by fake active-shooter calls, prompting dangerous police raids. Wired identifies the culprits as an online group called Purgatory, who brag they are “nihilistic” and do it for fun and cash. Bryan argues the crime warrants capital punishment: “You rip this stuff and these people out by the root.” Foreign Spies Captured Bolton’s Emails: The New York Times confirms that a foreign intelligence service intercepted classified emails John Bolton sent to his wife and daughter from an unsecured system. Democrats call Trump’s DOJ “fascist,” but Bryan insists, “Had I done what John Bolton did, I would be in prison a long time ago.” Iran’s Nuclear Stockpile Neutralized: Satellite images confirm Trump’s Operation Midnight Hammer left 900 pounds of enriched uranium entombed at Isfahan. The IAEA backs the finding, despite Iran threatening its director Rafael Grossi with death. Bryan says the news proves firing DIA chief Jeffrey Kruse for downplaying the strike was “a good clean-out of the Deep State.” American Operatives Stir Trouble in Greenland: The Wall Street Journal reports suspected Trump-linked contractors are recruiting Greenlanders for separatist movements, sparking tensions with Denmark. Bryan suspects, “These guys are more like Erik Prince’s Blackwater than CIA professionals — sloppy, but maybe effective.” China Moves to Corner Vietnam’s Tungsten Supply: Reuters reveals Chinese firms are secretly bidding for Vietnam’s tungsten mines through front companies. With the U.S. sourcing a quarter of its tungsten from Vietnam, Bryan warns this could leave America “utterly dependent” on Beijing for another critical mineral. Islamist Violence in Ivory Coast Spurs U.S. Base Plans: Militants from Burkina Faso kill farmers in northern Ivory Coast, part of a growing jihadist campaign across West Africa. The U.S. considers building a drone and Special Forces base in Benin, Ghana, or Ivory Coast to counter both Islamists and China’s expanding footprint in African resources and fishing. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Minneapolis Catholic school shooting, transgender shooter manifesto, Jen Psaki prayer remarks, THC psychosis gender dysphoria, U.S. college swatting attacks Purgatory group, John Bolton unsecured emails espionage, Operation Midnight Hammer uranium entombed, Jeffrey Kruse DIA firing, Trump Greenland operatives separatist movement, China Vietnam tungsten mine, U.S. dependence critical minerals, Ivory Coast Islamist attack Burkina Faso, U.S. West Africa drone base, China Africa bauxite cocoa fishing

| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover a dramatic fight over the Federal Reserve, Trump’s controversial stake in Intel, his call to double Chinese students in U.S. universities, a Milwaukee judge caught aiding an illegal immigrant, and new research linking everyday health risks to antibiotics, smoking, and infant gut health. From courtroom drama to corporate socialism to medical breakthroughs, today’s brief delivers facts that will impact your wallet, your security, and your health. Trump Fires Fed Governor Lisa Cook: President Trump moves to remove Lisa Cook over alleged mortgage fraud, but she refuses to leave and files a lawsuit, insisting, “I have no intention of being bullied to step down.” A resurfaced video shows her calling Trump a fascist and warning of “the road to genocide,” fueling claims she’s part of the Resistance inside the Fed. The showdown could head to the Supreme Court to decide whether presidents can fire Fed governors — raising questions about the very future of the Federal Reserve. Trump Buys 10% Stake in Intel: The White House converts $10 billion in chip subsidies into equity, making the U.S. government Intel’s largest shareholder. Rand Paul warns this is “a step toward socialism,” while Trump’s team calls it a sovereign wealth fund strategy. Critics argue the move won’t fix Intel’s technical failures, while Bryan cautions, “I don’t want that beast to have more power or money or both… I want it to have less.” Trump Calls for 600,000 Chinese Students in U.S. Universities: The president shocks supporters by suggesting more than doubling student visas for China, insisting, “I told President Xi that we’re honored to have his students here.” Critics cite espionage risks, noting past cases where Chinese students at the University of Michigan spied on military bases or smuggled bioweapons. Bryan warns, “You don’t have to be a former CIA ops officer to see that 600,000 more of these people is not smart policy.” Milwaukee Judge Faces Prison for Aiding Illegal: Judge Hannah Dugan helped an illegal immigrant escape her courtroom to avoid ICE arrest. A federal judge rejected her claim of immunity, ruling, “No one is above the law, even when you’re a judge.” She faces up to six years in prison. Meanwhile, Trump fires San Francisco immigration judges granting asylum in 95 percent of cases, ensuring that “it is the law… not personal feelings or politics… that rule the day.” Medical News You Need to Know: Australian researchers find that mixing antibiotics with painkillers like Advil or Tylenol speeds bacterial mutations, fueling antibiotic resistance. Japanese scientists discover how smoking alters gut bacteria to ease colitis symptoms, pointing to new therapies without cigarettes. And a California study shows C-section babies lack critical gut bacteria, raising risks of allergies and asthma. Bryan concludes, “Those bellies matter — starting with mom — and from the very first minutes of our life.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Trump Lisa Cook Fed firing, Lisa Cook mortgage fraud lawsuit, Trump Federal Reserve Supreme Court, Intel government stake 10 percent, Rand Paul Intel socialism warning, Trump Chinese students visas 600000, Chinese espionage University of Michigan, Milwaukee judge Hannah Dugan illegal immigrant case, Trump fires San Francisco immigration judges, antibiotics painkillers resistance study, smoking colitis gut bacteria, infant gut health C-section allergies asthma

26 AUG 2025: Screwworm Outbreak: The Latest & Who’s to Blame? // Deep State Update: From the D.I.A. to Jeffrey Epstein // Global News: Gaza, Ukraine, & a Mystery in Venezuela
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the return of the deadly screwworm parasite to U.S. soil, a sweeping Deep State update from the DIA to Epstein, and global headlines from Gaza, Ukraine, and Venezuela. From maggots threatening America’s cattle herd to Marines steaming toward Caracas, today’s brief connects domestic crises with international conflicts that could reshape U.S. policy. Screwworm Parasite Returns to America: Health officials confirm the first human case of screwworm infestation in decades, discovered in Maryland after a traveler returned from Latin America. Ranchers warn of catastrophic risks to U.S. beef herds, recalling outbreaks from the 1930s. Critics blame Biden’s open border surge through Panama for allowing the parasite north. As Bryan puts it, “This screwworm crisis was preventable but Democrats and Joe Biden allowed it to happen.” Deep State Update — DIA, Bolton, and Epstein: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth fires DIA chief Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse after his team relied on Iranian disinformation to downplay Trump’s strike on Tehran’s nuclear program. Senator Mark Warner blasted the move, warning of “a dangerous habit of treating intelligence as a loyalty test.” The FBI raids John Bolton’s home and office in a classified documents probe, raising questions about why Biden-era DOJ buried the case. And newly released Ghislaine Maxwell testimony insists, “The President was always a gentleman in all respects,” while controversially minimizing Bill Clinton’s Epstein ties as “one journey.” Gaza Hospital Strike Kills Civilians and Journalists: Israeli missiles hit Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza, killing at least 20 including reporters for Reuters and the AP. Prime Minister Netanyahu’s office calls it a “tragic mistake” as an investigation begins. Israeli media demand answers, asking, “How did this happen?” Ukraine Unveils 1,800-Mile Missile: President Zelenskyy announces Ukraine has built a long-range missile dubbed “The Flamingo” capable of striking deep into Russia. “We can and will strike deeper into Russian territory without the permission of Washington,” he declared, though Trump’s Pentagon has quietly ordered U.S. weapons held back from long-range use. U.S. Marines Deploy Toward Venezuela: The 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit sails south with destroyers, submarines, and aircraft in what may be preparation to topple Nicolás Maduro’s regime. Trinidad and Tobago’s prime minister backs Trump, declaring, “No amount of Trump Derangement Syndrome tantrums will prevent my government from welcoming assistance to combat the terrorist drug cartels of Venezuela.” Bryan suggests the timing may connect to Trump’s deportation strategy under the Alien Enemies Act. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: screwworm parasite Maryland case, Biden border crisis cattle, U.S. beef industry threat screwworm, Pete Hegseth fires DIA chief, Jeffrey Kruse Iran strike intel, Mark Warner loyalty test quote, John Bolton FBI raid classified docs, Ghislaine Maxwell Epstein testimony Trump Clinton, Gaza hospital missile strike journalists killed, Zelenskyy Flamingo missile 1800 miles, Trump Pentagon Ukraine ATACMS, U.S. Marines Venezuela deployment, Trinidad Tobago supports Trump, Nicolás Maduro drug cartel regime, Alien Enemies Act deportations

| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover Trump’s crime crackdown expanding beyond Washington, the partisan redistricting war over control of the House, and a major immigration roundup exposing the dangers of open borders. From Baltimore and Chicago to Maryland and the southern border, today’s brief shows how law, politics, and security collide in the fight for America’s future. Trump Expands Crime Crackdown to Chicago and Baltimore: Over 900 arrests have already been made in Washington, half tied to immigration offenses, and Trump promises deployments next in Chicago and Baltimore. Chicago’s socialist mayor Brandon Johnson warned his supporters would “rise up” against Trump, while Maryland’s Governor Wes Moore invited Trump to walk Baltimore’s streets with him. Trump shot back, “I assume he is talking about the out of control, crime ridden, Baltimore? As President, I would much prefer that he clean up this Crime disaster before I go there for a walk.” Redistricting War and the Future of the Republic: Democrats in Maryland, California, and other blue states push gerrymandering to erase GOP seats, while Republicans in Texas, Florida, and Ohio counter with maps to expand theirs. Experts warn of decades of GOP dominance if trends continue, but as one listener asked, is this a sign America is dying? Bryan argues the Republic envisioned by the Founders “has been dead for over 100 years” and that today’s fight amounts to a new civil war of ideas between open-borders leftists and Americans who still cherish the nation’s founding principles. Immigration Roundup — Truckers, Deportations, Detention, and Border Security: Trump halts visas for foreign truck drivers after deadly accidents, reversing an Obama-era rule that allowed CDLs without English proficiency. El Salvadoran gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia faces deportation to Uganda after Democrat judges forced his return to the U.S., a case his lawyers call “cruel and bigoted.” ICE detentions hit a record 60,000 with Trump’s Border Czar Tom Homan vowing, “We’re going to build 100,000 beds… they may slow us up a bit, but they’re not going to stop us.” And at the border, a Chinese woman caught with child pornography on her phone highlights why Bryan warns, “Cases like pedophiles or child pornographers should be a slam dunk — they all go back home.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Trump DC crime crackdown, Chicago National Guard deployment, Baltimore crime Trump Wes Moore, Brandon Johnson rise up quote, U.S. redistricting war 2025, GOP gerrymandering Texas Florida Ohio, Democrat gerrymandering California Maryland, foreign truck driver visa ban, Obama CDL English rule, Kilmar Abrego Garcia deportation Uganda, ICE detention record 60,000, Tom Homan 100,000 beds quote, Alligator Alcatraz detention Florida, Chinese illegal immigrant child pornography Texas

22 AUG 2025: Headline Brief: Trump vs. The Fed // Gerrymandering // Trump Mops up on Court Victories // Mega Immigration Crackdowns // Good Econ News // Global Updates // Autism
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the growing battle between Trump and the Federal Reserve, new fights over redistricting in California and Texas, major courtroom victories for the president, and breakthrough medical research on autism. From fiery clashes in Washington to hopeful discoveries in science, today’s brief delivers the headlines shaping America’s future. Trump vs. Powell and the Federal Reserve: Fed Chair Jerome Powell delivers a pivotal speech today as Trump threatens to fire him over high interest rates. Biden appointee Lisa Cook refuses to resign amid a DOJ mortgage fraud investigation, declaring, “I have no intention of being bullied to step down from my position.” Trump pushes to replace Fed governors with his own picks, raising the stakes for the economy and next year’s midterms. California and Texas Redistricting Battles: California Governor Gavin Newsom pushes a special election to redraw maps that would flip five GOP districts to Democrats, but polls show 64 percent of Californians want to keep the independent commission’s map. Meanwhile, Texas Republicans advance their own redistricting plan to shift five seats from Democrats to Republicans, with Florida and Missouri set to follow. Trump Scores Three Major Court Victories: A New York appeals court strikes down a $500 million civil fraud verdict, calling it “a stinging rebuke” to Attorney General Letitia James. The Supreme Court clears Trump to cut $800 million in DEI grants at the NIH. And the Ninth Circuit rules he can end Biden’s Temporary Protected Status protections for 60,000 migrants, overturning what Bryan calls “an egregiously wrong” lower court decision. Immigration Crackdown in Washington DC: Trump personally joins ICE agents targeting illegal immigrants on mopeds working for delivery services. One arrest of a Mexican national sparked outrage until it was revealed he had raped a 13-year-old child, forcing Democrats to quickly delete their criticism. Bryan calls it proof that “facts matter, and sometimes they come out too late.” Economic Data Surprises and Tariff Revenues: Despite gloomy forecasts, Walmart sales hold firm, housing sales tick upward, and factory activity reaches its highest level since 2022. Trump’s tariffs generate a record $160 billion in revenue, with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confirming the funds are reducing U.S. debt. “It’s leaving the economic smarties scratching their heads,” Bryan notes, as predictions of collapse keep falling flat. Global Updates — Ukraine, India, and the UK: Trump urges Zelenskyy to strike inside Russia, writing, “It is very hard, if not impossible, to win a war without attacking an invader’s country.” Russia responds by bombing a U.S.-owned factory in Ukraine. In India, Prime Minister Modi moves closer to China, praising “steady progress guided by respect for each other’s interests” while his billionaire allies profit from Russian oil sales. In the UK, PM Keir Starmer faces fury as asylum seekers flood in and crime rises. Breakthroughs in Autism Research: South Korean scientists develop a probiotic treatment that reduces autism symptoms in mice by altering gut bacteria. At Stanford, researchers test an epilepsy drug, Z-944, that reverses autism symptoms including seizures, sensitivity issues, and social impairments. Bryan calls the findings “a wonderful way to start the weekend.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Trump Powell Federal Reserve fight, Jerome Powell interest rates, Lisa Cook DOJ investigation, California redistricting Newsom, Texas GOP redistricting plan, Trump court victories Letitia James, Supreme Court NIH DEI grants, Ninth Circuit TPS migrants, Trump DC ICE mopeds, Walmart sales tariffs, U.S. factory activity 2025, Trump tariffs debt reduction, Zelenskyy strike inside Russia, Russia bombs U.S. factory Ukraine, Modi Xi China alliance, UK asylum seekers Starmer, South Korea autism probiotic, Stanford epilepsy drug autism reversal

21 AUG 2025: Spy vs. Spy: Trump & Biden Intel Chiefs Face off // Dems in Disarray, but Socialism Is the Fix (They Say) // Global News: Russia Backpedals, China Hacks, North Korea Bombs, Venezuela Worries
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover a spy war in Washington DC, the Democratic Party’s collapse in registration and identity, and urgent global updates from Russia, China, North Korea, and Venezuela. From Tulsi Gabbard stripping clearances from top intel veterans to Democrats embracing socialism and Trump sending warships toward Venezuela, today’s brief gives you the facts behind the headlines shaping America’s future. Battle of the Spies in Washington: Trump’s Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, revoked the clearances of 37 current and former intel officers, including Obama-era staff tied to the discredited Trump-Russia ICA and Steele Dossier. Gabbard warned, “Having a clearance is a privilege — not a right.” Biden’s former CIA Director William Burns fired back, calling it a “retribution campaign” and accusing Trump of acting like an autocrat. Bryan reminds listeners that Burns once visited Jeffrey Epstein’s home for “career advice,” raising questions about credibility. Democratic Party in Decline: The New York Times reports Democratic voter registration is collapsing nationwide, especially among Hispanics, men, and voters under 45. Analyst Michael Pruser admitted, “There seems to be no end to this… month after month, year after year.” Party leaders split over solutions, with some warning of “Trump’s quest for a personal dictatorship” while Obama’s Ben Rhodes insists socialism is “the future of the party.” Bryan reflects on why he left the Democrats, citing Marxism, anti-American policies, and race radicalism. Global Updates — Russia, China, North Korea, Venezuela: Putin backtracks on security guarantees for Ukraine, demanding veto power for Moscow and Beijing, while Trump’s VP JD Vance insists, “Europeans are going to have to take the lion’s share of the burden.” Microsoft cuts back cyber cooperation with China after Beijing abused early warnings, leading Bryan to quip, “Xiè xiè… that’s Chinese for thank you, you stupid Americans at Microsoft.” New intel reveals a North Korean base near China housing up to nine ICBMs capable of striking the U.S., and Trump orders destroyers, Marines, submarines, and surveillance aircraft into Venezuelan waters to confront Nicolás Maduro’s “narco-terror cartel.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Tulsi Gabbard revokes clearances, William Burns Trump fascist claim, Obama Trump-Russia ICA Steele Dossier, Democratic Party voter registration collapse, Ben Rhodes socialism future, Trump Putin Ukraine peace talks, JD Vance Ukraine burden sharing, Microsoft China cyber hacks, Bill Gates China spies, North Korea secret ICBM base, Trump Venezuela destroyers Marines, Nicolás Maduro narco-terror cartel

20 AUG 2025: Finding 300K Missing Migrant Kids // Foreign Truck Drivers Cause Mayhem // DC Crime Progress // Listener Q&A: US Forces in Ukraine & Venezuela, Peace in Gaza, Medical Weed
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover Trump’s crackdown on Democrat-led policies in crime, immigration, and trucking safety, plus a listener-led Q&A block on Ukraine, Venezuela, Gaza, medical marijuana, and Made in the USA. From falling crime in Washington DC to looming military moves in Venezuela, today’s brief brings you stories that cut across politics, national security, and everyday life. Trump’s Crime Crackdown in Washington DC: New data from the DC police union shows carjackings down 83 percent, robberies down 46 percent, and overall violent crime down 22 percent since Trump deployed National Guard troops. Nearly 500 arrests have been made, about half involving immigration-related crimes. The DOJ is also investigating whether DC officials manipulated past crime stats. Illegal Alien Truck Driver Kills Three in Florida: An Indian national living illegally in the U.S. caused a fatal crash after making an illegal U-turn in a semi-truck. He previously avoided deportation under Biden-era policies and held a CDL despite failing basic competency tests. The administration is now reviewing how hundreds of thousands of foreign-born drivers obtained licenses. Where Are Biden’s 300,000 Missing Migrant Children: A DHS report shows hundreds of thousands of migrant children placed with unvetted sponsors or lost entirely by the Biden administration. Bryan shares a personal story that illustrates the dangers, arguing the failures amount to deliberate negligence. Listener Question — U.S. Boots on the Ground in Ukraine and Venezuela: Trump assures no American troops will deploy to Ukraine, but his administration is sending warships toward Venezuela amid pressure on dictator Nicolás Maduro. Bryan explains the risks of military entanglement and the key questions leaders must ask before committing U.S. forces abroad. Listener Question — Is Israel to Blame in Gaza: Negotiators from Egypt and Qatar offered Hamas a chance to disarm and cede control of Gaza in exchange for safe haven abroad, but Hamas refused. Bryan explains why Palestinian rejection of Israel’s existence keeps war inevitable, despite alternatives for peace. Listener Question — Does Marijuana Really Relieve Pain: A Pennsylvania study finds most patients abandon medical cannabis within a year due to lack of results or side effects. Bryan highlights research showing placebo treatments can trigger natural pain relief, suggesting safer alternatives exist. Listener Question — What Happened to Made in the USA: With Americans prioritizing affordability over patriotism, Bryan previews tomorrow’s counsel to Trump on how to restore U.S. manufacturing loyalty and revive his “Five Bucket Revolution.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Trump DC crime crackdown, National Guard Washington DC arrests, DC crime stats manipulation, illegal alien truck driver Florida crash, foreign-born CDL drivers, Biden missing migrant children, U.S. migrant child trafficking, Trump Ukraine security guarantees, U.S. warships Venezuela Maduro, Hamas rejects Gaza peace deal, Egypt Qatar Gaza plan, medical marijuana chronic pain study, placebo pain relief research, Made in the USA consumer loyalty, Trump Five Bucket Revolution

19 AUG 2025: The War in Ukraine: What Did Trump Promise? // China Says No Invasion of Taiwan for Three Years // Israel Heads Towards Big Gaza Battle // Bolivia Rejects the Left
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover Trump’s security promises to Ukraine, Xi’s pledge on Taiwan, Israel’s expanding Gaza campaign, and Bolivia’s rejection of socialism. From tense diplomacy in Washington to regime collapse in Latin America, today’s brief connects the global headlines shaping America’s future. Trump and European Leaders Debate Ukraine Security Guarantees: At the White House, Trump and European leaders pressed Zelenskyy to accept ceding Crimea and other land to Russia, while pledging U.S. and European backing for Ukraine’s defense. Zelenskyy continues to demand binding security guarantees, but questions remain over whether that means U.S. boots on the ground. Bryan explores if America is edging toward a dangerous commitment. The Economics of a Ukraine Deal — Weapons and Minerals: Reports suggest a peace deal could include massive U.S. arms sales funded by Europe, alongside possible access to Ukraine’s rare earth deposits. Bryan analyzes why Ukraine’s mining industry faces seven major roadblocks, from corruption and infrastructure damage to Russian control of key deposits. History Check: The Budapest Memorandum Was Not a Guarantee: Listener Michelle raises whether America already owes Ukraine a security guarantee dating back to the 1990s. Bryan revisits the Budapest Memorandum, showing it offered only “assurances” — not guarantees — and why Ukraine knowingly traded its nuclear arsenal for cash, energy, and weaker promises. Xi Tells Trump No War with Taiwan — For Now: China’s president reportedly told Trump he will not invade Taiwan while Trump is in office. Bryan considers whether this is respect for Trump, fear of U.S. drone defenses, or simply a pause due to China’s economic crash, property collapse, and Xi’s growing paranoia at home. Israel Prepares for Expanded Gaza War: The Israeli Defense Forces announce plans for a decisive campaign into Gaza City and central refugee camps. Netanyahu pushes to relocate Palestinians abroad while hostage negotiations stall. Israeli protests grow louder, but leadership insists Hamas must be destroyed to secure peace. Bolivia Rejects Socialism After 20 Years of Collapse: Voters oust their Marxist government after two decades of economic ruin, high inflation, shortages, and long fuel lines. The runoff pits a centrist senator and a conservative ex-president, both favoring closer U.S. ties. Bryan warns that Evo Morales, still backed by allies in Havana, Caracas, and Beijing, could yet destabilize Bolivia’s democratic turn. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Trump Ukraine peace deal, Zelenskyy Crimea concessions, Ukraine security guarantees, U.S. weapons sales Europe, Ukraine rare earth minerals, Budapest Memorandum assurances, Xi Trump Taiwan pledge, China economic slowdown property crisis, Israel Gaza expanded war, Netanyahu relocate Palestinians, Bolivia socialism collapse, Evo Morales comeback threat

18 AUG 2025: Trump vs. Putin: What Comes Next & How It Impacts You // Major Russian Hack // China Dumps Weapons in Iran // Palestinian Radicals in the US & Jordan // Good News From Germany!
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover Trump’s meeting with Putin and the fallout across Europe, Russia’s blackmail operations inside the U.S., Palestinian visas and radicalism, China’s military support for Iran, unrest in Jordan, and a surprising scientific link between coffee and happiness. From high-stakes diplomacy in Washington to national security risks at home, plus a bit of good news from Germany, today’s brief brings you the stories shaping America and the world. European Leaders Scramble After Trump-Putin Talks: After President Trump’s meeting with Vladimir Putin in Alaska, European heads of state rushed to Washington DC to secure strong U.S. security guarantees for Ukraine. Trump signaled support for a permanent defense pledge but urged Kyiv to accept a peace deal even if unpopular. Bryan explains why critics warn this risks dragging America into a perpetual European conflict. Russia Hacks U.S. Courts to Build Blackmail Files: Bloomberg confirms that Russian cyber operatives infiltrated the federal court system for years, stealing sealed records and exposing informants. The stolen material may allow Putin to blackmail American politicians and corporate leaders. Bryan details how this could compromise U.S. decision-making and weaken trust in federal institutions. China Re-Arms Iran with Missiles and Air Defenses: Following its war with Israel, Tehran is rebuilding its weapons stockpiles with Chinese rocket fuel, missile systems, and air defenses. Despite Beijing’s denials, intelligence reports confirm the transfer. Bryan unpacks what this means for the Middle East and U.S. national security. Palestinians Entering U.S. Under Questionable Visas: Reports reveal that thousands of Palestinians entered the United States under humanitarian visas with little or no vetting. Critics warn of radical sympathies and cultural incompatibility, while Islamist groups call the backlash discriminatory. Bryan examines how this policy failure exposes America to preventable risks. Jordan Cracks Down on Palestinian Radicals: The Jordanian government has intensified scrutiny of the Islamic Action Front for its ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and Palestinian extremists. With half of Jordan’s population of Palestinian origin, King Abdullah faces a delicate balancing act to preserve stability. Bryan explains why this story is a warning for U.S. immigration debates. Coffee Boosts Mood and Mental Health: A new German study shows daily coffee drinkers report lower levels of depression, anxiety, and sleep problems. Researchers link the benefits to gut bacteria changes that boost serotonin and brain health. Bryan shares why your morning cup might be doing more than keeping you awake. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Trump Putin Alaska meeting, European leaders Ukraine security guarantees, Russia hacks U.S. courts blackmail, Russian informant network exposed, China arms Iran missiles, Palestinian humanitarian visas U.S., Jordan Palestinian radicals crackdown, Islamic Action Front Muslim Brotherhood, coffee happiness study Germany, gut bacteria serotonin coffee

| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover DC’s surprising new cooperation with Trump’s immigration crackdown, major developments in detention facilities across multiple states, cartel drones at the border, Harvard’s patent problem, nuclear energy breakthroughs, rising AI power demands, and a surge in U.S. military recruitment. From crime crackdowns to cutting-edge energy projects, today’s brief packs in the key headlines you need to know heading into the weekend. DC Partners with Trump on Immigration Enforcement: Washington DC’s police chief announces the city will now cooperate with ICE on arresting illegal immigrants, a sharp reversal from its sanctuary city stance. Trump allies celebrate the move as a model for nationwide enforcement, while debate continues over alleged manipulation of DC’s crime statistics. Homeless Encampment Removal in DC: Heavy equipment is clearing dozens of tent sites under overpasses and in parks. Officials offer shelter and mental health services to displaced individuals, but critics warn the homeless population may simply relocate to nearby states. New Immigration Detention Facilities in Florida, Texas, and Louisiana: Governor Ron DeSantis unveils “Deportation Depot” in Florida, Texas prepares Fort Bliss to house 5,000 illegal immigrants, and Louisiana opens space in its state prison for 500 detainees alongside violent offenders — drawing sharp criticism from the ACLU. Cartel Drone Operations at the Border: DHS reports nearly 30,000 cartel-operated drone sightings in just six months, many flying at night to drop contraband or surveil U.S. defenses. Officials warn these drones could eventually target law enforcement or civilians. Trump Targets Harvard’s Lucrative Patents: The administration demands a full accounting of Harvard patents and licenses developed with federal funds, citing a 1980 law requiring public benefit and U.S.-based manufacturing. The university has yet to respond. Small Modular Reactor Program Fast-Tracked: The Department of Energy selects 11 companies to build new nuclear plants within a year to meet surging energy demands, particularly from AI data centers. One Wyoming facility is projected to use more electricity than all homes in the state combined. U.S. Military Recruitment Surges Under Trump: All branches are ahead of schedule on enlistment goals, prompting the Army to add 10 new basic training units. Defense officials credit better pay, targeted support programs, and renewed interest under the current administration. Listener Question - Two Years of The Wright Report: Bryan reflects on memorable listener stories, from health breakthroughs and autism research to workplace insights and investment wins sparked by podcast coverage. He also previews an upcoming AI tool for searching past transcripts. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: DC immigration enforcement, Trump crime crackdown, homeless encampment removal DC, Florida Deportation Depot, Fort Bliss migrant detention, Louisiana state prison detainees, cartel drones Mexico border, Harvard federal patent law, small modular reactors SMR, AI data center energy use, U.S. military recruitment surge, Wright Report two year anniversary

14 AUG 2025: Obama’s Deep State Attacks: New Top Secret Document Released // US Factories Coming Home // Farm & Ranch Update // Trump & Putin Face off // Ukraine’s Front Lines Crack // Mysterious Drone Flight
| Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover explosive new evidence of an Obama-era conspiracy against Donald Trump, major shifts in U.S. manufacturing and agriculture, high-stakes diplomacy before the Trump–Putin meeting, the collapse of Ukraine’s front lines, and a mysterious American drone mission deep into Mexico. Newly Declassified Email Exposes Obama-Era Conspiracy: A Top Secret 2016 email from NSA Director Mike Rogers to James Clapper, John Brennan, and James Comey reveals deep concerns over Obama’s rushed Intelligence Community Assessment on alleged Trump–Russia collusion. The correspondence confirms intelligence officials were pressured to rubber-stamp a politically driven report that included the discredited Steele Dossier. Bryan details why this is foundational evidence of a seditious conspiracy. GE Appliances Moves Production Back to the U.S.: Trump’s tariff strategy prompts GE Appliances, formerly owned by a Chinese company, to relocate manufacturing of ranges and refrigerators from Mexico and China to plants in Georgia, Alabama, Kentucky, Tennessee, and South Carolina, creating 1,000 new jobs. U.S. Farm and Ranch Report: Bred heifer prices hit record highs as cattle herd sizes remain at 1950s lows, keeping beef prices elevated. Favorable rains and cheaper feed are encouraging herd rebuilding, while the dangerous New World screwworm threatens to cross the border from Mexico. Crop conditions are generally good, but trade restrictions tied to tariffs are shifting agricultural export strategies. Mexico Sends 26 Cartel Members to U.S. Custody: President Claudia Sheinbaum transfers dangerous cartel figures to the United States, defying Mexico’s constitution under technical loopholes. The move follows White House pressure to prevent cartel leaders from escaping Mexican prisons and resuming drug and human trafficking operations. Trump and European Allies Set Ukraine Negotiation Red Lines: Ahead of tomorrow’s Alaska meeting with Vladimir Putin, Trump and European leaders agree on five conditions for peace talks, including a cease-fire, starting territorial discussions from current front lines, and securing binding Western security guarantees. European leaders will not attend the Alaska talks, leaving the White House to own the negotiations and their outcome. Ukraine’s Front Lines Near Collapse: Russian forces, bolstered by North Korean mercenaries, gain six miles in the Donetsk region through relentless “meat wave” assaults. Ukrainian soldiers are frustrated with leadership, and public support for the war has collapsed, with 69 percent now favoring a negotiated settlement. Bryan warns that without fresh troops or a change in strategy, Ukraine risks losing the entire country. U.S. Drone Conducts Deep Strike Recon in Mexico: An American MQ-9 Reaper drone flew 600 miles into cartel-controlled territory in Michoacán before shutting off its transponders. The mission likely signals upcoming U.S. military action against cartels, with or without Mexican government cooperation, as Trump accelerates his campaign against foreign and domestic enemies. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Obama-era Trump-Russia conspiracy, declassified Mike Rogers email, GE Appliances reshoring, U.S. cattle herd prices, New World screwworm threat, Mexico extradites cartel members, Trump Putin Alaska meeting, Ukraine front lines collapse, Donetsk Russian advance, U.S. drone Mexico cartel mission

In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover a potential new Pentagon strike force for domestic unrest, the rise of socialism in New York City, surprising economic moves from the White House, and a breakthrough AI cancer detection tool. Pentagon Considers Rapid Reaction Force: The Trump administration is weighing the creation of a 600-troop rapid deployment unit to respond to civil unrest within one hour. With political investigations, mass deportations, and federal troop deployments in cities like Washington DC, Chicago, and Los Angeles, Bryan examines the combustible political environment driving this proposal. Socialist Mayoral Candidate Leads in New York City: Zohran Mamdani dominates the polls in the Big Apple with promises of free housing, transit, and food through government-run grocery stores. Bryan looks at a failed Missouri experiment with a similar grocery store model as a cautionary tale for New York voters. Good News on Inflation and Controversial Export Tax on Chips: July’s inflation numbers came in lower than expected, sparking calls for an interest rate cut. At the same time, President Trump has introduced a 15 percent export tax on computer chips sold to China by Nvidia and AMD. Supporters call it innovative, but critics warn it may be unconstitutional under Article One of the U.S. Constitution. AI Detects Throat Cancer from Voice Recordings: Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have developed an AI tool capable of detecting throat cancer in men using only voice recordings. While the discovery offers hope for early detection, researchers found no significant results for women, highlighting the need for further study. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Pentagon rapid reaction force, Trump domestic troop deployment, Zohran Mamdani NYC mayor race, socialist grocery store failure, July 2025 inflation rate, Trump export tax Nvidia AMD, AI throat cancer detection, Oregon Health & Science University AI tool

In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover breaking news on Trump’s federal takeover of Washington DC’s police, potential nationwide marijuana reclassification, Iran’s nuclear program under siege, a Chinese naval mishap in the South China Sea, and a Supreme Court case that could overturn gay marriage. Trump Federalizes DC Police and Eyes Chicago, LA: President Trump deploys 800 National Guard troops to Washington DC and assumes control of its police department for 30 days, citing a public safety emergency. Supporters point to rampant crime and alleged data manipulation by city officials, while critics claim it is an authoritarian power grab. Trump says similar moves could come to Chicago and Los Angeles. White House Considers Marijuana Reclassification: Trump is considering downgrading marijuana from a Schedule I to a Schedule III drug, easing restrictions on recreational and medical use. Bryan examines the health and safety concerns, including toxic metals, pesticides, mislabeled THC levels, and regulatory failures in the cannabis industry. Iran Hides Nuclear Scientists After Israeli Strikes: Following Israel’s covert operations that killed dozens of Iran’s nuclear scientists, Tehran has relocated the remaining 100 or so into hiding. Mossad continues to hunt them, with Israeli officials calling the survivors “dead men walking.” Chinese Navy Ships Collide in the South China Sea: Two Chinese naval vessels collided while pursuing a Philippine Coast Guard ship, causing major damage and embarrassment for Beijing. The mishap raises questions about the battle readiness of China’s rapidly expanding military.
