    08 JAN 2026: Walz Declares Civil War, First Death // Mamdani Plans to Steal Houses From Whites // Trump's Populist Orders Shock // Global: Mexico Defies on Cuba, Stabilizing Venezuela, Ghost Ships, Denmark Threat

    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 episode of The Wright Report, Bryan explains why Minnesota's governor is openly escalating toward a constitutional crisis, how a deadly ICE confrontation is being weaponized politically, and why Democrats may be preparing nationwide unrest to distract from a massive fraud reckoning. He then covers major White House moves on housing, defense contractors, Venezuela, China, Russia, and Greenland, showing how Trump's strategy is reshaping global power. Tim Walz Declares a De Facto War on the Federal Government: Minnesota Governor Tim Walz announced that his state is "in a state of war" with the federal government after an ICE officer shot and killed protester Renee Good during an immigration raid in Minneapolis. Video shows Good used her vehicle as a weapon against the officer, who fired in self-defense after being struck. Walz ordered the National Guard to prepare for deployment and called on activists nationwide to rise up, prompting warnings that his rhetoric may meet the legal definition of insurrection. A Manufactured Crisis and the Somali Fraud Reckoning: Bryan explains why the timing of Walz's escalation matters. Attorney General Pam Bondi just surged federal investigators into Minnesota to probe billion-dollar Somali fraud rings tied to Medicaid, daycare centers, and migrant nonprofits, many of which donated to Democratic campaigns. Federal funds to Minnesota and other blue states have been frozen or cut, and the White House is preparing a nationwide fraud announcement. Bryan warns that the death of an activist is being exploited to distract from what could become one of the largest corruption scandals in U.S. history. White House Targets Defense Contractors and Housing Costs: President Trump issued an executive order blocking major defense contractors from paying dividends or buying back stock until weapons production accelerates. CEO compensation is capped at five million dollars annually. Trump also moved to ban large institutional investors from buying additional single-family homes, arguing corporate buyers are pricing Americans out of the housing market. Senate Republicans are already drafting legislation to codify the policy. Trump Confronts Socialist Housing Policy in New York City: The Justice Department is reviewing whether New York City's new socialist mayor and his housing director violated anti-discrimination laws. The housing director has publicly called homeownership a tool of white supremacy and advocated seizing private property, with the mayor openly endorsing her views. DOJ officials say racial targeting in housing policy is unlawful and will be challenged. Global Shockwaves from Venezuela and the Ghost Fleet: Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed a three-phase U.S. plan for Venezuela, beginning with stability under remnants of the Maduro regime, followed by economic recovery and eventual democratic transition. The United States will act as Venezuela's sole oil dealer while seizing ghost-fleet tankers moving Iranian and Russian oil. Trump authorized U.S. forces to seize ships even after they reflagged as Russian, directly squeezing Moscow's war finances and Beijing's energy supply. Greenland and Europe's Energy Reality Check: Denmark warned it would use lethal force if U.S. troops attempt to seize Greenland, even as Chinese submarines map Arctic waters near U.S. defenses. Bryan contrasts Europe's military posturing with its fragile energy reality, as winter cold, snow-covered solar panels, and weak wind output drive electricity shortages and price spikes across Germany and Northern Europe "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: January 8 2026 Wright Report, Tim Walz ICE shooting Minneapolis, Renee Good protest death, Minnesota National Guard insurrection rhetoric, Somali fraud Medicaid daycare nonprofits, Pam Bondi investigation surge, defense contractor dividend ban Trump, institutional investors single family homes, Zohran Mamdani housing discrimination DOJ, Venezuela stability first strategy Rubio, ghost fleet tanker seizures Russia Iran, Greenland Denmark threat U.S. troops, China Arctic submarine mapping, Europe winter energy crisis

    07 JAN 2026: Trump's Venezuela Strategy Goes Global: Minnesota Migrants ICE'd // Huge Oil Deal Sealed // Canada Gets Squeezed // India Ponders Oil Swap // Mexico Panics // Cuba Falters // Greenland Worries

    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 episode of The Wright Report, Bryan delivers a sweeping analysis of the national and global fallout from President Trump's decision to capture Nicolás Maduro. From Minneapolis to Caracas, and from Mexico to Greenland, Bryan explains how one operation is reshaping immigration policy, energy markets, global power dynamics, and America's definition of strength. ICE Launches Largest Immigration Operation in U.S. History: DHS Secretary Kristi Noem confirmed a massive surge of ICE officers into Minneapolis, with Venezuelans, Somalis, and other migrant groups now prioritized for removal. With Maduro no longer in power, the administration says it is safe for Venezuelans to return home. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz condemned the operation, calling it unprecedented, as Temporary Protected Status, asylum cases, and green card applications are frozen or revoked. Trump Strikes a Massive Oil Deal with Venezuela: Negotiations with Venezuela's new Marxist leadership produced a deal transferring thirty to fifty million barrels of oil to U.S. control, valued at up to two point eight billion dollars. The oil will help refill the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and stabilize global markets. U.S. oil companies are now being pushed to rehabilitate Venezuela's collapsed energy sector, potentially with taxpayer support, despite concerns about security and long term stability. Stability Over Democracy in Caracas: The White House decided it cannot yet work with opposition leaders like María Corina Machado or Edmundo González. Instead, Trump is temporarily backing remnants of the Maduro regime to maintain order and secure oil and mineral flows. Power struggles inside Venezuela have already turned violent, with armed gangs, checkpoints, and internal purges spreading fear among civilians. Global Strategy Tied to Oil and Power: Trump's plan aims to flood global markets with Venezuelan oil to pressure Canada, undercut Russia's finances, and entice India away from Russian energy. Bryan explains how this strategy could weaken Vladimir Putin's war funding and force movement toward a Ukraine peace deal. Shockwaves Across Mexico, Cuba, and Greenland: Mexican leaders fear they could be next as Trump escalates cartel strikes and pressures Mexico to cut oil shipments to Cuba. Cuban leaders face collapse without Venezuelan and Mexican energy. Meanwhile, Trump renewed warnings that military force remains an option to secure Greenland, citing the threat posed by China and Russia. European leaders are furious but largely powerless to stop him. A Message to China and the World: Trump warned Venezuela's remaining leaders to sever ties with China, Russia, Cuba, and Iran or face removal. Reuters reports Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello is now under direct U.S. threat. Bryan argues the broader message is clear. Trump is no longer bluffing, and assumptions that he is all bark and no bite are collapsing worldwide. Analysis and Warning: Bryan cautions that while Trump may manage Venezuela in the short term, the strategy carries serious risks. China, Brazil, or Colombia could destabilize the country through proxies or sabotage. He suggests Trump may seek a grand bargain with Beijing, trading U.S. restraint in Asia for Chinese withdrawal from the Western Hemisphere. The Political Lesson: Senator Chris Murphy admitted this week that Trump must now be taken seriously. Bryan closes by arguing that Trump is reordering global power at age seventy-nine because he believes the country is nearing collapse and this is America's last chance to reset its trajectory.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: January 7 2026 Wright Report, ICE Minneapolis surge Venezuelans, Kristi Noem Todd Lyons deportations, Trump Venezuela oil deal Strategic Petroleum Reserve, Maduro regime remnants power struggle, global oil strategy Canada Russia India, Mexico cartel pressure Cuba collapse, Greenland military option Trump, China warning Venezuela Cabello, Trump global power reset

    06 JAN 2026: Dems Ditch Somali Fraud Gov // Hilton Blocks Ice Stay // Seditious Senator Punished // Maduro's Crew Strikes Back // China Picks Bayou Base // Iran Fears Trump // German Terror Goes Left // Good News!

    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 Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers political fallout from Minnesota's massive Medicaid fraud scandal, disciplinary action against Senator Mark Kelly for seditious conduct, explosive courtroom revelations from Nicolás Maduro's arraignment, rising global instability tied to Trump's Venezuela decision, and new intelligence warnings involving China, Iran, Germany, and America's food supply. He closes with encouraging medical research on immune health and cancer prevention. Tim Walz Forced Out as Minnesota Fraud Probe Explodes: Minnesota Governor Tim Walz announced he is dropping his reelection bid after becoming a liability to Democrats over the nine billion dollar Somali Medicaid fraud scandal. Federal investigators are now probing what Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison knew and when, after state whistleblowers warned in 2018 that fraud at Feeding Our Future was obvious before any money was paid. Despite those warnings, hundreds of millions flowed to Somali nonprofits that later donated to Democratic campaigns. Prosecutors admit the fraud is so widespread that many participants may never face charges due to limited resources. Hilton Refuses to House DHS and ICE Officers: A Hilton franchise owner in Minneapolis refused rooms to DHS and ICE agents participating in an immigration crackdown, saying the hotel would not assist deportations. Corporate Hilton had not responded at the time of recording. Bryan urges listeners to remember this incident when choosing where to spend their travel dollars. Mark Kelly Punished for Seditious Conduct: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth reduced Senator Mark Kelly's military retirement rank and pay after Kelly called on service members to refuse illegal orders from President Trump but could not identify any such orders. Hegseth said Kelly's actions constituted reckless misconduct and confirmed investigators are evaluating whether Kelly could be recalled to active duty for prosecution under military law. Maduro Pleads Not Guilty as Indictment Stuns: Former Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro pleaded not guilty in Manhattan, declaring himself innocent and still the legitimate leader of Venezuela. Federal prosecutors released a detailed indictment outlining twenty-five years of cocaine trafficking, kidnappings, beatings, and murders ordered by Maduro and his family. His vice president, Delcy Rodríguez, vowed to resist the United States and declared Maduro a hostage, while Marxist guerrilla groups threatened attacks on Americans. Trump's Venezuela Decision Sends Shockwaves: The Wall Street Journal reports that President Trump repeatedly tried to negotiate Maduro's peaceful exit before losing patience after public taunts. His decision to authorize the capture has rattled regimes worldwide, including Iran. Reuters reports Iranian officials now fear Trump will act decisively if protests escalate, prompting the Ayatollah to quietly prepare escape plans to Russia along with billions in assets. China's Espionage Footprint Near U.S. Bases: A Chinese intelligence-linked individual owns two golf courses near Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana, home to America's nuclear bomber force. Chinese media openly described the courses as networking hubs for U.S. political and business elites. Bryan warns that such properties create serious espionage and sabotage risks, similar to a Chinese-owned trailer park near Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri. Threats to America's Food Supply: A new screwworm outbreak in Mexico threatens U.S. cattle just as Brazil reduces its breeding herd and America's cattle numbers hit historic lows. Bryan warns beef prices are likely to remain high for several years and advises listeners to stock freezers when possible. Left Wing Terrorism Returns in Germany: German officials warn left-wing terrorism is intensifying after radicals sabotaged power infrastructure in Berlin and Brandenburg, cutting electricity to forty-five thousand people. The attackers vowed to escalate assaults on oil and gas infrastructure nationwide. Promising Medical Research: German researchers found that supplementing with 1,000 milligrams of Urolithin A for 28 days significantly rejuvenated aging immune systems by restoring mitochondrial function. UK scientists also reported that ten minutes of intense daily exercise can slow or reverse colon cancer growth by triggering DNA repair and reducing inflammation.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: January 6 Wright Report, Tim Walz Medicaid fraud Minnesota, Feeding Our Future whistleblower Ellison, Hilton refuses ICE DHS rooms, Mark Kelly retirement demotion Hegseth, Maduro indictment Manhattan drug trafficking, Delcy Rodríguez resistance, Trump Venezuela decision global impact, China espionage Barksdale Air Force Base, screwworm outbreak beef prices, Germany left wing terrorism infrastructure attack, Urolithin A immune system study, exercise colon cancer DNA repair

    05 JAN 2026: Special War Report: Venezuela // Developing News From Mexico, Iran, Finland, Germany, Good Medical Reports!

    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 War Brief edition of The Wright Report, Bryan delivers an exclusive breakdown of the stunning U.S. operation that captured Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro, examines the legal and strategic fallout of the mission, and warns that while the snatch was flawless, what comes next may be far more dangerous. Operation Absolute Resolve Captures Maduro: U.S. Special Forces and the CIA executed a high-risk overnight raid in Caracas, capturing Nicolás Maduro and his wife from a fortified military base and flying them to New York to face federal drug trafficking charges. The operation involved more than 150 U.S. aircraft, cyber tools that disabled air defenses and electricity, and months of CIA recruitment inside Maduro's inner circle. One U.S. helicopter took fire and one soldier was lightly injured, but the mission succeeded without American fatalities. Legal Gray Zone and Regime Change Risks: Bryan explains the central legal question now facing the Trump administration. If the operation is treated strictly as a law enforcement action, it likely falls within presidential authority. But Trump's own comments about controlling Venezuelan oil, gold, and governance blur that line and raise questions about whether this was de facto regime change, which could require congressional approval. The uncertainty is already complicating Maduro's prosecution and U.S. credibility abroad. Who Runs Venezuela Now: Despite Maduro's removal, his vice president Delcy Rodríguez remains in power and is openly defying Washington, claiming Maduro is still the legitimate leader. Bryan warns that the United States may be attempting a "puppet strategy" rather than a clean transition, relying on hardline Marxists who still control militias, gangs, and narco networks like Tren de Aragua. This creates a volatile mix of criminal, ideological, and guerrilla threats inside a country larger than Texas. Global Shockwaves and Warnings: China reacted with fury and signaled that America's action could justify similar operations against Taiwan. Democrats condemned the raid as unlawful despite years of calling for Maduro's removal. Trump and Secretary Rubio warned that Cuba, Colombia, Mexico, and even Greenland should take note. Bryan cautions that while the operation showcased American intelligence and military excellence, it also exposed U.S. vulnerabilities to retaliation through minerals, sabotage networks, and proxy violence at home. Best Case vs. Worst Case: Best case, the U.S. secures energy access, stabilizes Venezuela, and sends millions of migrants home. Worst case, Venezuela descends into chaos, guerrilla warfare erupts, Tren de Aragua launches attacks inside the United States, and China or Russia escalate through economic or covert retaliation. Bryan concludes that capturing Maduro may prove to be the easiest part of a long and dangerous chapter now unfolding.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Operation Absolute Resolve Maduro capture, CIA Special Forces Caracas raid, Maduro drug trafficking SDNY, Trump Venezuela oil gold control, Delcy Rodríguez power struggle, Tren de Aragua retaliation risk, China Taiwan snatch precedent, Cuba Colombia Mexico warnings, regime change legal authority, Venezuela best case worst case scenario

    02 JAN 2026: New Year, New US Laws // Trump's Health // Mamdani Becomes Mayor // Global News: China's Silver, US Troops to Ukraine, Venezuela Update, Iran Protests, Microplastics News

    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 Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers new laws taking effect in 2026, easing mortgage rates, major tariff changes, mounting concerns about President Trump's health, the radical transformation of New York City under its new socialist mayor, and fast-moving global developments from China, Ukraine, Venezuela, Iran, Spain, and the medical world. Good News for Homebuyers and New Laws for 2026: Mortgage rates opened the year at 6.15 percent, down sharply from last year. Trump's Triple B bill now allows a tax deduction of up to ten thousand dollars in interest for Made in the USA vehicles. States also rolled out new laws, including social media limits for children in Virginia and Nebraska, expanded unemployment benefits for mental health claims in Illinois, and sharply different approaches to gender dysphoria in Colorado and New Hampshire. White House Adjusts Tariffs and Deployments: The administration delayed steep tariffs on furniture and cabinetry and rolled back anti-dumping duties on Italian pasta following talks with Italy's prime minister. Trump is also withdrawing National Guard troops from Los Angeles, Chicago, and Portland after a Supreme Court ruling narrowed his authority unless he invokes the Insurrection Act. Questions About Trump's Health: The Wall Street Journal reports modest concern among Trump's family and advisors as he enters the second year of his term at age seventy-nine. Trump dismissed the worries, joking about his hearing and explaining his long-standing use of aspirin despite doctors recommending a lower dose. New York City's Radical Shift: Zohran Mamdani was sworn in as mayor of New York City, placing his hand on the Quran and naming a former al-Qaeda defense attorney as chief counsel. He was sworn in by Senator Bernie Sanders, while socialist outlet Jacobin declared the moment a chance to dismantle capitalism nationwide. Bryan argues the development represents a profound ideological takeover of America's largest city and financial center. China Escalates the Mineral Wars: Beijing is restricting silver exports through a new licensing system, tightening global supply just as it has done with rare earth minerals. China is stockpiling silver for industrial use and currency support, raising prices worldwide and intensifying competition over strategic resources. Ukraine, Venezuela, and Iran Edge Closer to Conflict: President Zelenskyy claims discussions are underway for U.S. troops to deploy to Ukraine after a peace deal, a claim the White House has not confirmed. In Venezuela, U.S. forces killed additional narco traffickers and surged elite aviation and ground units into the region as oil tankers flee sanctions. In Iran, nationwide protests entered their sixth day, with crowds chanting against the Ayatollah as economic conditions deteriorate. Europe's Populist Surge Continues: Spain's Vox Party doubled its representation in regional elections, pulling votes from Socialists while traditional conservatives resist coalition talks. Bryan notes the same elite-versus-populist split now defines politics across much of Europe. Medical Warning on Microplastics: Researchers at UC Riverside found evidence that microplastic exposure in men may increase metabolic disease risk in their children. The findings add to growing concerns about plastics, particularly when heating food in plastic containers.     "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: January 2 2026 Wright Report, mortgage rates 6.15 percent, Triple B bill tax deduction cars, new state laws 2026 social media limits, Trump tariff rollback Italian pasta, National Guard withdrawal Supreme Court, Trump health Wall Street Journal, Zohran Mamdani socialist mayor NYC, China silver export restrictions, Ukraine U.S. troops claim, Venezuela narco strikes, Iran protests Day Six, Spain Vox Party surge, microplastics metabolic disease study

    01 JAN 2026: Happy New Year! // Tease for Tomorrow and Next Week (Fraud, Iran, Immune System Boost)

    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 New Year's Day episode of The Wright Report, Bryan offers a forward-looking briefing on the massive migrant fraud investigations now unfolding nationwide, rising unrest inside Iran, the future of human espionage in an age of AI surveillance, and new research that could dramatically strengthen the immune system this winter. A Nationwide Migrant Fraud Reckoning: Bryan previews a major investigation he is assembling on migrant fraud rings operating far beyond Minnesota. Independent journalists are uncovering suspicious nonprofit operations tied to Medicaid and other taxpayer-funded programs in states including Washington, Ohio, New York, Massachusetts, Michigan, and California. Bryan explains why this could become one of the biggest domestic scandals in decades, potentially involving billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars sent overseas. Why This Fraud Matters to Every Taxpayer: As Americans prepare to file their taxes, Bryan asks a blunt question. Why should citizens pay billions to Washington if that money is being stolen and routed to foreign nationals and their home countries? He argues the situation violates the most basic American principles and says the Founders rebelled over far less. Iran's Protests and a Dangerous Balancing Act: Bryan is consulting intelligence sources to assess unrest inside Iran. He explains that the regime often allows protests to burn for a time to release pressure, but the danger is letting them grow into a true revolution. The key question he is exploring is how worried the Ayatollah truly is about losing control and what signs would signal that a counter-revolution is near. The Future of Human Spying: Responding to a listener question, Bryan teases a deep dive into the future of espionage. He explains how digital exhaust, constant surveillance, and artificial intelligence make it more complicated than ever for CIA officers to recruit and protect foreign assets. He warns that hostile intelligence services can now identify, flip, and feed disinformation back to U.S. leaders, shaping decisions about war and peace. Promising Immune System Research: Bryan shares excitement about new European research showing the immune system can be reset and strengthened in just twenty-eight days. The compound used in the study is already available over the counter and is included in a product he has previously endorsed. He says the findings reinforce his commitment to only partner with products backed by real science.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: nationwide migrant fraud investigation, Medicaid nonprofit abuse states, Minnesota fraud expansion, taxpayer money overseas, Iran protests regime stability, Ayatollah counter revolution risk, future of CIA human intelligence, AI surveillance espionage, digital exhaust counterintelligence, immune system reset research Europe, over the counter immune supplement, New Year Wright Report

    31 DEC 2025: US Housing Boom (Credit Deportations!) // Dirty Green Retreat // Trump's New Asylum Strategy // White House Uses Sneaky Law to Crush DEI // "Traitor" Tim Walz: Somali Fraud Update

    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 New Year's Eve Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan delivers major economic updates, exposes collapsing green energy narratives, explains the White House's aggressive new asylum strategy, and revisits the explosive Somali fraud scandal in Minnesota that is now dominating national politics. He closes with a reflection on truth, power, and why elites work so hard to stop Americans from asking hard questions. Good News for Your Wallet: Pending home sales jumped 3.3 percent in November, the strongest showing in three years, driven by rising wages and lower mortgage rates. Rents are falling across most major cities, creating the most renter-friendly market in at least a decade. HUD data shows that two-thirds of rental demand came from the foreign-born, meaning deportations and self deportations are directly increasing housing supply and lowering prices for native born Americans. The Cheap Labor Myth Collapses: After more than two and a half million illegal migrants have left the country, GDP and wages are rising while rents and crime fall. Bryan argues Americans were lied to for decades by elites who claimed cheap foreign labor was necessary. The data now shows the opposite, and he calls the moment revolutionary. Green Energy Reality Check: China's renewable energy boom is largely a mirage, with many wind and solar projects never connected to the grid. Beijing is simultaneously expanding coal plants across Southeast Asia. Global wind speeds and solar efficiency are declining, and Japan is restricting solar farms for environmental and aesthetic reasons. Bryan says the global green movement is now in retreat. Trump's New Asylum Strategy: The White House is canceling large numbers of asylum claims and sending others to third countries like South Sudan or Palau while cases are reviewed. The administration says most asylum claims are fraudulent and designed to exploit loopholes. Democrats accuse Trump of abandoning human rights. DOJ Targets DEI Programs: The Justice Department is using the False Claims Act to pressure federal contractors to dismantle Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion programs. Companies must either eliminate DEI or face massive fines for defrauding the government. Universities Face a Financial Shake-Up: The Trump administration wants universities and venture capital firms to share profits from taxpayer-funded research. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is pushing for equity stakes or cash returns when patents are commercialized. Elon Musk Enters the Midterm Fight: Despite past clashes with Republicans, Elon Musk says he will spend hundreds of millions of dollars to help the GOP keep Congress. He cites fears of Democrat censorship, economic control, and what he calls ideological extremism. Minnesota's Somali Fraud Scandal Explodes: Federal investigators say Somali-run nonprofits defrauded taxpayers of at least nine billion dollars through fake daycares, autism services, food programs, and Medicaid scams. Money funded luxury lifestyles, Islamist terror groups, and Democratic campaigns. Governor Tim Walz halted earlier investigations after activists accused the state of racism. A Somali academic told the New York Times that fraud is culturally encouraged, a statement Walz has avoided addressing. Bryan explains why Elon Musk now calls the governor "Traitor Tim." A New Year's Reflection: Bryan closes by urging listeners to reject elite deflections and keep demanding the truth. He argues that the real battle ahead is not left versus right, but truth versus lies, and promises that this podcast will continue to challenge power with facts, logic, and reason in the year ahead.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: pending home sales rent decline deportations, cheap labor myth wages GDP, China coal expansion fake green energy, Trump asylum third country policy, DOJ False Claims Act DEI, university patent profit sharing Lutnick, Elon Musk GOP midterms funding, Minnesota Somali fraud nine billion dollars, Tim Walz investigation, al Shabaab terror funding

    30 DEC 2025: CIA Drones Hit Venezuela Port // US to Bomb Iran (Again) // Trump Makes Huge Security Promise to Ukraine // Listener Q&A: Somaliland, Europe, Good Medical News!

    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 episode of The Wright Report, Bryan covers the first confirmed U.S. ground strike inside Venezuela, escalating threats between Washington and Tehran, high-stakes peace negotiations over Ukraine, and a wide-ranging listener Q&A that spans Africa, Europe, and promising medical breakthroughs. U.S. Destroys Venezuelan Port Facility: President Trump confirmed that U.S. forces destroyed a port facility used by the Maduro regime to load drug trafficking boats. Reporting from Axios and CNN indicates the strike targeted land-based infrastructure, marking a major escalation beyond maritime interdictions. Bryan explains that the CIA and U.S. Special Forces were almost certainly involved and that the attack was meant to signal to Maduro that Washington has deep intelligence access and is prepared to keep striking unless a deal is reached. Risks of Retaliation and Global Entanglement: Bryan warns that a cornered Maduro may turn to sabotage operations inside the United States using narco gangs like Tren de Aragua. He also outlines less likely but more dangerous scenarios involving Chinese or Russian support, noting that Venezuela owes Beijing roughly $70 billion. Bryan argues Trump likely holds the advantage, but the situation remains volatile. Trump Threatens New Strikes on Iran: Following talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Trump said additional U.S. airstrikes are possible if Iran advances its nuclear or ballistic missile programs. For the first time, Washington appears equally focused on Iran's missile capabilities, aligning more closely with Israel's long held concerns. Iran's president responded by declaring a full-scale war with the United States and Israel. Iranian Assassination Plot Uncovered: The FBI is investigating an Iranian Quds Force team allegedly operating inside the United States to kidnap or assassinate American officials, including President Trump. Bryan connects the threat to mounting unrest inside Iran, where currency collapse, water shortages, and street protests are pushing the regime toward desperation. Ukraine Seeks Long-Term U.S. Security Guarantees: President Zelenskyy asked for a fifty-year American security guarantee as part of any peace deal with Russia. Trump countered with an offer of fifteen years. Bryan explains why such guarantees could entangle the United States in future wars and spark backlash from Trump's America First base, especially if paired with new conflicts in Iran and Venezuela. Listener Questions and Medical Good News: Bryan answers listener questions on Somaliland, European cultural decline, and why Israel's recognition of Somaliland has ignited regional tensions. He closes with encouraging medical updates on multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and diabetes, highlighting research that links oral health, cellular energy balance, and natural sunlight exposure to improved outcomes.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Venezuela port strike CIA Special Forces, Maduro narco boats Tren de Aragua, Trump Iran missile nuclear threats, Iranian assassination plot Quds Force FBI, Ukraine peace talks security guarantee, Zelenskyy Trump fifteen years, Somaliland Israel recognition Horn of Africa, Europe cultural decline cousin marriage, MS oral bacteria research, NAD Alzheimer's study, sunlight diabetes glucose control
