| 0:00.0 | It's January 8th. I'm Brian Dean Wright, former CIA operations officer, and this is The Wright Report. |
| 0:12.4 | A good day to you, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to The Right Report, Your Daily News, podcast. |
| 0:22.4 | I've got two very big briefs for you this morning that are shaping America and the world. |
| 0:28.2 | First up, the new U.S. Congress just passed its first bill. It is set to focus on detaining illegal aliens with criminal records. |
| 0:34.9 | But some Trump supporters are worried saying it doesn't go far enough. |

| 1:51.9 | named after, of course, the woman who was murdered by an illegal alien from Venezuela. The bill |
