    18 JUN 2026: Special Report: The Iran Memo Changes the Middle East... And Things You'll Never Expect

    Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Special Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down the Iran Peace Memo in full, the document that will shape global oil prices, your mortgage and credit card rates, Middle Eastern security, and American electoral politics for years to come. Bryan walks through every major section of the Memo, from Iran's effective new control over the Strait of Hormuz and a $300 billion reparations framework, to the shocking reversals on missiles and nuclear enrichment that contradict what Trump, Rubio, and Vance themselves argued just months ago. He also explains why the White House is now calling this a "gentlemen's agreement," why CIA Director Ratcliffe and Secretaries Rubio and Hegseth opposed it, and why the Fed is now signaling interest rate hikes instead of cuts because of oil-driven inflation tied directly to this conflict. Plus, Senate Republicans are breaking with Trump over the deal and blocking the SAVE Act out of spite, the UAE is spending billions to reroute oil pipelines away from Iranian-controlled waters, and Bryan closes with his unvarnished assessment of what this Memo means for American power on the world stage. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32   Keywords: Wright Report, Bryan Dean Wright, Iran Peace Memo, Strait of Hormuz, Operation Epic Fury, nuclear enrichment Iran, Iran missiles, JD Vance, Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth, John Ratcliffe, Iran sanctions, $300 billion reparations, Federal Reserve interest rates, oil prices global economy, SAVE Act election integrity, Senate Republicans Trump, UAE oil pipelines, Abraham Accords, Hezbollah Lebanon, Ahmed al-Sharaa Syria, American military decline, drone warfare

In this Listener Q&A episode of The Wright Report, Bryan answers your sharpest questions on the Iran Peace Memo, walking through exactly why the text still hasn't been released, what we know for certain about the money Iran is already collecting, and why his own CIA sources align with Director Ratcliffe's assessment that the IRGC simply cannot be trusted on its nuclear promises. Bryan also takes on the toughest pushback of the week, including a listener threatening to cancel over his Iran coverage, fielding it directly and on the record. He breaks down the rare earth mineral crisis and whether the US can rebuild its supply chain before a potential conflict with China, explains why climate change has functionally become a religion for the American Left, and shares his view on a domestic terror plot targeting the White House that he believes previews what the next 9/11 will actually look like. Plus, Bryan closes with a question about whether America can survive another 250 years, delivering a blunt, geopolitical case for why the answer is yes, but only if the country deals with the threat he considers more immediate than Iran.

    16 JUN 2026: Let's Make a Deal: The Latest on Iran Talks and Why We Have Few Details // Major Democrat Under DOJ Investigation // Consumer Warning on Spy Pricing // Antarctica to Rescue A.I. // Dementia and Diet

    Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Tuesday brief of The Wright Report, Bryan unpacks the latest on the US-Iran Peace Memo, which still hasn't been released to the public, and what VP JD Vance's televised comments reveal about what may or may not be in it. With the Strait of Hormuz still not fully open, nearly 500 ships stuck in the Persian Gulf, and Iran's lead negotiator already offering a very different version of the deal than the White House, the stakes couldn't be higher. Bryan walks through why the text is being withheld until after Friday's signing in Switzerland, what that says about the political strategy behind the deal, and why Netanyahu is making clear that Israel considers itself bound by none of it. Plus, California Governor Gavin Newsom is under DOJ investigation, surveillance pricing is costing you up to 30% more on everyday purchases based on your digital footprint, SpaceX wants to put AI data centers into low Earth orbit while a Peter Thiel-backed startup wants to drop them into Antarctic waters, and new research shows a ketogenic diet may protect against Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other neurodegenerative diseases.

In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down the new US-Iran peace memorandum, a deal that reopens the Strait of Hormuz under Iranian and Omani oversight while extending the current ceasefire by 60 days. He digs into the billions in protection payments Arab nations are reportedly sending to Tehran, how Russia has helped Iran rebuild its missile stockpile after the war, and why Trump is furious with Netanyahu over new strikes on Hezbollah just as this fragile deal comes together. Bryan also covers the growing US weapons shortage and how China's grip on rare earth minerals is complicating America's ability to rearm. Plus, conservative wins take shape in Peru and Colombia, Cuba makes a surprising pivot away from communist economic policy, the Tren de Aragua gang leader is killed in a US strike, new details emerge on ballot harvesting in Los Angeles, Elon Musk becomes the world's first trillionaire and Democrats react, Pennsylvania steelworkers get a major boost, diesel mechanics receive pardons, and a new study links low vitamin C to brain health in older adults.

    Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he covers today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Listener Q&A episode of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down the latest escalation with Iran, including a dramatic at-sea rescue of two downed Apache pilots using an AI-powered drone boat, and explains what a lasting peace deal would actually require. Listeners push Bryan on oil prices, the Iran endgame, and whether the U.S. should pursue regime change or a strategic withdrawal. He lays out his case for a coordinated pullback backed by covert CIA and SOCOM operations, while also addressing the riots now tearing through Belfast following a brutal attempted beheading by an asylum seeker, and what that moment reveals about the broader clash playing out across Europe. Plus, Bryan covers a landmark development in American-made solar panels, shares a correction on Ivermectin use in dogs, and closes with three pieces of genuinely good news: a simple hospital tip that cuts pneumonia risk by 60%, new UCLA research on creatine and cancer-fighting immune cells, and a stunning case study of an 80-year-old Alzheimer's patient who temporarily recovered speech, memory, and mobility after a single dose of psilocybin.

    09 JUN 2026: Voter Fraud in California // Denaturalizing U.S. Citizens: Trump Ramps up New Effort // Trouble in Spy World: China, Russia, Israel, Golden Eye // Screwworm in New State

    Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he covers today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down mounting allegations of voter fraud in the Los Angeles mayoral race, explains why California's electoral system may be structurally designed for manipulation, and lays out what July 10th means for the future of that fight. The Trump Administration is also making its most aggressive push yet to strip citizenship from foreign-born Americans who lied or committed crimes during the naturalization process, but Bryan explains why the Senate filibuster remains the single biggest obstacle to doing it at any meaningful scale. On the espionage front, China, Russia, and Israel are all ramping up intelligence operations against the U.S., and the bizarre case of CIA officer David Rush and his basement full of gold bars keeps getting stranger. Plus, screwworms have now crossed into New Mexico, infecting a dog in Lea County and triggering Canada to block live animal exports from Texas, with Bryan offering a clear warning for pet owners in the region.
