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 the indictment of James Comey, a national DOJ investigation into George Soros, Pete Hegseth’s extraordinary call for all generals to return to Virginia, Trump’s warning to Democrats about pushing conservatives too far, and headline updates on tariffs, green energy, AI, and global flashpoints.

Quick hits to set your radar for the weekend.

James Comey Indicted:
The former FBI director faces charges of false statements and obstruction of justice. Trump pushed prosecutors to act before the statute of limitations expired, insisting Comey’s role in Crossfire Hurricane was “a coup” against the elected government. Bryan argued, “James Comey deserves the death penalty… it would be a righteous and correct judgment.”

DOJ Targets Soros’s Open Society Foundations:
At least seven U.S. attorneys will probe Soros funding networks for alleged terrorism support, arson, fraud, and racketeering. Bryan compares the crackdown to federal efforts in the 1960s and 70s against the Weather Underground.

Pentagon Showdown Next Week:
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth summoned every U.S. general and admiral worldwide to a meeting in Virginia as Trump demands a 20 percent cut in four-star officers. Politico reports many senior leaders are unhappy with the rebrand to the Department of War.

Trump Warns Democrats on Violence:
After MSNBC and the John Brown Gun Club suggested ICE agents “deserved” recent attacks, Trump warned, “The Left better not get the Right energized because it won’t be good for the Left.”

Turning Point Rejects Kimmel’s ‘Apology’:
Spokesman Andrew Kolve said, “What we need is, ‘I’m sorry, I lied, I was wrong, and I won’t do it again.’ Otherwise… his political agenda is more important than the life of my friend who was just taken from us.”

Dallas Shooter Update:
The killer searched “Charlie Kirk shot video” while planning his ICE attack, suggesting a copycat killing. FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed he used Democrat-developed tracking apps to stalk ICE agents.

NYC Worker Punished for Helping ICE:
A city staffer was retrained after reporting two criminal illegals to ICE, violating sanctuary laws that protect even convicted felons from deportation. Bryan called it “diabolical.”

Tariff Cheaters and Whirlpool’s Complaint:
Appliance makers are under DOJ investigation for undervaluing imports to dodge tariffs, costing U.S. producers.

Green Energy Failures:
California’s $2.2 billion Ivanpah solar farm is shutting down after killing 6,000 birds annually. Bryan added, “That’s wonderful news for the birds.”

AI Revolution Goes Federal:
Elon Musk’s Grok chatbot is now the U.S. government’s official AI system, including for secret agencies, despite studies showing AI is unreliable and prone to lying.

Global Watch for the Weekend:
Farmers furious at Argentina selling soybeans to China, European leaders ready to shoot down Russian aircraft, Britain exploring digital IDs, Tony Blair offering to run Gaza, and new medical studies on obesity, eye health, and aging.

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 deadly shooting at an ICE facility in Texas, Gavin Newsom’s taunts against federal immigration agents, a trillion-dollar bet on artificial intelligence, and surprising medical news about how common drugs damage the gut.

From political violence in Dallas to AI schemes and gut health science, today’s brief delivers facts and analysis shaping America’s future.

ICE Facility Shooting in Dallas:
Joshua Jahn, 29, opened fire on an ICE building with a Mauser-style rifle, killing one illegal alien and injuring two others before taking his own life. He left behind ammo marked “Anti-ICE” and had ties to Communist views similar to his leftist sister. Bryan warns the pattern echoes other recent attacks: “From Trump’s assassin in Butler, PA… to Charlie Kirk’s killer… these platforms like Steam and Discord are being used to groom young men into violence.”

Newsom Taunts ICE After Signing Five Bills:
California Governor Gavin Newsom declared, “To ICE, unmask yourselves. What are you afraid of?” on Colbert’s show, less than 24 hours before the Dallas attack. Leftist groups in California are doxxing ICE officers with help from AI activists in Europe, while Democrats push to weaken federal deportation powers. Bryan argues this is about political power, not civil rights: “Schumer and Pelosi said it themselves — they want illegals turned into citizens for votes and control.”

The AI Revolution’s Cost and Scheming Risks:
OpenAI, Oracle, and SoftBank pledged $500 billion for new U.S. data centers, with utilities warning of grid strain and soaring bills. While AI is helping detect Parkinson’s and cancers, researchers admit models are “scheming” — purposely failing to hide competence. Bryan quips, “We’re spending a trillion dollars to create systems that lie, hallucinate, and dumb down doctors.”

Common Medications Alter Gut Health for Years:
Estonian researchers found antidepressants, beta-blockers, proton pump inhibitors, and benzodiazepines disrupt the gut microbiome as severely as antibiotics. Effects persist long after use, raising risks for diseases like cancer and Alzheimer’s. Bryan advises, “If you’re on meds, don’t forget about your belly — diet, sleep, and exercise matter.”

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 Jimmy Kimmel’s disputed return to television, a plot to disable New York City’s cell network as Trump spoke at the UN, and fresh data showing who really commits the most political violence in America.

From free speech battles to global threats and a debate over Left vs. Right violence, today’s brief delivers facts and analysis shaping America’s future.

Jimmy Kimmel’s Return and Free Speech Debate:
Democrats celebrated Kimmel’s return, calling his suspension “the worst government attack on free speech in generations.” CNN’s Jake Tapper said it was “the most direct infringement by the government on free speech that I’ve seen in my lifetime.” But YouTube admitted Biden’s White House pressured them to silence millions of Americans, including Charlie Kirk, proving censorship was far broader than Kimmel’s case. Sinclair and Nexstar still refused to air Kimmel without an apology, sparking threats from Democrats to break up the networks.

Trump Stuck on UN Escalator and Plots in New York:
Security failures left Trump and the First Lady stranded on an escalator before his UN speech, followed by a mic and teleprompter outage. “What is the purpose of the United Nations? … A bad escalator and a bad teleprompter,” Trump quipped. Meanwhile, authorities uncovered a clandestine device network capable of shutting down NYC’s cell service, calling it an “imminent threat” from foreign state actors. Trump’s speech then blasted Venezuela’s cartels, Europe’s immigration and energy policies, Russia’s war, and calls for Palestinian statehood — declaring of Europe, “Your countries are going to hell.”

Left vs. Right Violence — Who Commits More:
Listener Wendy asked who really drives political violence. The Atlantic reported on new CSIS data finding “this year — 2025 — marks the first time in more than 30 years that left-wing attacks outnumber those from the far right.” Bryan points to Antifa and Marxist groups as proof the Left’s war is escalating, reminding listeners: “We live in a revolution. Their revolution. And if you disagree with them, you’re to be targeted.”

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 Jimmy Kimmel’s controversial return to television, a Supreme Court ruling that could reshape presidential power, the growing struggles of America’s farmers and truckers, and new White House warnings about Tylenol and autism.

From free speech fights to medical debates, today’s brief connects culture, politics, and science shaping America’s future.

Jimmy Kimmel Returns to Air with FCC Debate:
Disney announced Kimmel would return, calling his remarks “ill-timed and insensitive” but not admitting his claims about Charlie Kirk’s assassin were lies. Sinclair caved after death threats, canceling a Kirk tribute and airing Kimmel again. Senators Rand Paul and Ted Cruz blasted Trump’s FCC for even raising news distortion, with Cruz comparing it to “Goodfellas.” Bryan warned, “We cannot sit down with the modern Democrat party… they assassinate people who get in the way — like Charlie Kirk.”

Supreme Court Expands Presidential Power:
In a 6–3 decision, the Court allowed Trump to fire a Democrat FTC commissioner while hearing the full case in December. The ruling challenges the 1935 precedent limiting executive power. Bryan explains it could restore Jefferson-style authority, including presidential impoundment of spending. “Welcome to the new version of American democracy… it’s a bit of a mess right now.”

Farmers, Ranchers, and Truckers Under Pressure:
New screwworm cases in northern Mexico threaten U.S. cattle herds already at historic lows. Soybean farmers face collapse as Xi stops buying American crops, while truckers lose money under depressed rates and costly California regulations. Bryan calls for revoking visas of foreign drivers who “can’t read or speak English and are killing people on the road.”

White House Links Tylenol to Autism:
Trump’s HHS and FDA advised pregnant women to limit acetaminophen after new studies showed it can cross the placenta, cause oxidative stress, and disrupt brain development. Critics called the claims weak, but Bryan compared it to past medical dogmas debunked by Dr. Barry Marshall, who proved ulcers were caused by bacteria: “Quite literally the entire world of Medical Science was wrong. That one doctor was right.”

Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, we cover Charlie Kirk’s memorial service and its powerful messages of faith and forgiveness, Trump’s crackdown on Harvard and Berkeley, fresh threats from al Qaeda inside the U.S., Trump’s push to retake Bagram air base, TikTok’s murky new ownership deal, Argentina’s fight against socialism, and what’s ahead this week on the Wright Report.

Quick hits to launch your week with the facts shaping America and the world.

Charlie Kirk Memorial in Arizona:
Erika Kirk vowed, “No one will ever forget my husband’s name — and I will make sure of it.” She forgave the assassin, telling the crowd, “That man… I forgive him.” Trump honored Kirk as a man of grace but joked, “Charlie did not hate his opponents. That’s where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponents, and I don’t want the best for them.”

Trump Hits Harvard and Berkeley:
The White House placed Harvard on a federal watchlist restricting access to $550 million in funds, citing civil rights violations and leftist violence. UC Berkeley handed over names of 160 students and staff after pressure to expose antisemitic and radical faculty. Bryan says this is Trump waging the fight “where it belongs — in their pocketbooks.”

Al Qaeda Plot Inside the U.S.:
The National Counterterrorism Center warns AQ operatives from Yemen are in multiple American cities. Rumors suggest they may pose as police or medics during future attacks. Bryan urges vigilance: “While we may be done with Radical Islam — it is not done with us.”

Trump Demands Afghanistan Return Bagram Air Base:
The president warned the Taliban, “Bad things are going to happen” if the U.S. is not given control of the base, citing the need to monitor China’s nearby nuclear sites. Kabul insists “not one inch” will be ceded.

TikTok’s U.S. Ownership Deal:
Fox’s Murdoch, Oracle’s Larry Ellison, and Dell’s Michael Dell will sit on TikTok’s new U.S. board, with one seat reserved for a Chinese official. Trump insists user data will be controlled on U.S. soil, but skeptics warn Xi will not give up his propaganda tool without concessions.

Argentina’s Milei Meets Trump:
With inflation down from 250 percent to 34 percent, Milei still faces socialist backlash at home. Trump may use the U.S. Exchange Stabilization Fund to provide a financial lifeline. Bryan warns, “Never underestimate a death cult. Marxists don’t get tired of fighting.”

Looking Ahead This Week:
Trump promises revelations about autism and Tylenol, a bailout for struggling farmers and truckers, and big updates on immigration, Biden’s mental decline, and global conflicts from Gaza to the Pacific.

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.

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.”

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.”
