Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In today's episode, we cover
Democrat Congresswoman Declares Loyalty to Guatemala
Rep. Delia Ramirez tells a crowd in Mexico that she is "a proud Guatemalan before I'm an American," igniting a backlash and calls to bar dual citizens from serving in Congress. Bryan examines the broader implications for birthright citizenship and national loyalty.
Colorado Deputy Faces $50K Fine for Helping ICE
A sheriff's deputy is punished for alerting federal agents about an illegal immigrant during a routine traffic stop. Under Colorado's sanctuary laws, notifying ICE is a punishable offense—even when public safety is at stake.
Democrats Flee Redistricting Fight as GOP Gains Ground
Texas Democrats flee to Illinois to block Republican redistricting efforts that could flip ten House seats. Arrest warrants are issued, and Democratic leaders admit they are losing the map battle. A new Supreme Court case may further erode their electoral strongholds.
Obama and Biden Officials Face Grand Jury Investigation
Attorney General Pam Bondi confirms a criminal investigation into the origins of the Trump-Russia probe. Subpoenas are expected for former Obama-era officials, including James Comey, John Brennan, and possibly Barack Obama himself.
Jack Smith Under Federal Investigation
Special Counsel Jack Smith, known for prosecuting Trump, is now being investigated for violating the Hatch Act and abusing power for political purposes. His case joins a growing list of state and federal probes into Democrat-led lawfare.
Fed Officials Shrug Off Jobs Report
Despite a grim employment picture, top Federal Reserve leaders insist the labor market is strong and downplay the need for rate cuts. Bryan breaks down how this could hurt American families and delay needed economic relief.
Chinese Billionaire Buys Land Next to U.S. Water Supply
In Nashua, New Hampshire, a Chinese company purchases land adjoining a municipal water system, paying $67 million for a $15 million property. The FBI is silent, and lawmakers question why a known national security risk was allowed.
Trump Pushes for China Trade Deal Amid Rare Earth Crisis
Talks with Beijing continue as the White House tries to secure critical minerals for U.S. industries. China remains defiant, cutting off supplies to the military and holding back essential exports needed for weapons and AI development.
Trump Slaps Higher Tariffs on India Over Russian Oil
Trade talks collapse after India refuses to stop buying Russian energy or open markets to U.S. agriculture. The new tariff rate is still being finalized but will impact electronics and textiles, including iPhone supply chains.
Israel to Fully Occupy Gaza
Prime Minister Netanyahu moves to seize the last 25 percent of Gaza, aiming to dismantle Hamas and rescue remaining hostages. With U.S. backing, this full-scale operation could mark a turning point in the conflict.
Trump Greenlights Nuclear Power on the Moon
NASA announces a plan to install a 100-kilowatt nuclear reactor at Shackleton Crater by 2030 to power a permanent U.S. moon base. This project is key to outpacing China in the race for lunar dominance and eventual Mars missions.
