Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he covers today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan tracks a week's worth of threats coming to a head, from confirmed screwworm cases in Texas drawing fire at the federal response, to John Bolton pleading guilty to mishandling CIA crown jewels that Iran then stole off his personal devices.
Texas officials are publicly calling out Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins for a slow and incomplete response to the screwworm outbreak, even as cattle futures swing wildly and ranchers look to ivermectin as their best near-term option. Meanwhile, Bryan lays out the Bolton plea deal, the messages Bolton sent to his wife proving he knew exactly what he was doing, and why the compromise of Top Secret CIA covert action programs puts real lives at risk.
Plus, Bryan covers two corrupt Mexican governors now in the crosshairs of the Trump DOJ, Graham Platner's Nazi tattoo story getting worse by the day, Trump's $700M coal investment and a pointed rebuttal of the "clean energy" narrative, the restoration of DC's National Mall reflecting pool, and two medical stories worth your attention: a spinal stimulation breakthrough for stroke recovery and new research confirming the weather-migraine connection.
"And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32

| 0:00.0 | It's June 5th. I'm Brian Dean Wright, former CIA operations officer, and this is The Wright Report. |
| 0:08.0 | Hey, good day to you, ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to The Right Report, your daily news podcast. |
| 0:22.0 | It's Friday's headline brief. Heavy on news, light on analysis, launching us into the weekend with events that as ever, or shaping America and the world. |
| 0:31.0 | We begin with domestic and global news this morning, starting with updates on yesterday's pests. |
| 0:37.6 | And we're going to continue our coverage in the fight against pestilence of various kinds, |
| 0:42.4 | starting with screw worms. |
| 0:44.1 | As I noted yesterday, we've got confirmed cases in Texas, and now we are focusing on prevention |
| 0:49.8 | and treatment options, along with some frustrations out there. |
| 0:53.2 | The Texas Tribune is reporting |
| 0:54.6 | that state officials are pretty frustrated with Trump's Ag Secretary, Ms. Brooke Rollins, |
| 0:59.4 | for what they say have been insufficient prevention efforts and ignoring reality on the ground. |
| 1:04.8 | In fact, State Representative Don McLaughlin said, as late as just this Tuesday of this week, |
| 1:09.8 | that there was a confirmed case in Texas, |
| 1:12.5 | but Ms. Rollins dismissed him as being well-meaning, but ill-informed. |
| 1:17.8 | But it was he that was right. She was wrong. |
| 1:20.5 | Anyway, Texas ag chief, Sid Miller also piled on, criticizing the federal government's response |
| 1:25.9 | here to the screw worm spread, |
| 1:33.7 | as being slow, bureaucratic, and incomplete, pleading with President Trump to authorize the deployment of something called a screw worm adult suppression system or SWAS, which was last |
| 1:39.2 | tested by the U.S. government back in the late 1970s to eradicate screwworms using bait and insecticides. |
| 1:46.0 | Now, for what it's worth this SWAS system, it's not a bad idea. There is some good science |
| 1:51.0 | to back up its efficacy, although it's not exactly a silver bullet. It can suppress adult screwworms |
| 1:57.2 | and larvae populations, but not eradicate them. And that is why this system is best used with sterile fly releases at the same time, |
