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.

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

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

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

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."

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."

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

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."

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.
