It's October 27th, I'm Brian Dean Wright, former CIA operations officer, and this is The Right Report.

A good day to you ladies and gentlemen, welcome to The Right Report, your daily news, podcast.

0:21.8

I've got four briefs for you this morning to that R-Shape in America and the world.

0:26.9

First up, we will discuss the horrific shooting in Maine folks. It is bringing a lot of things into

0:32.6

focus for many of us this morning. Certainly, the importance of family, the fragility of life,

0:38.0

amongst others. But one thing that I've been focusing on over the past 24 hours is the role of

0:43.0

mental health in these deadly events. And that's because the killer in Maine suffered with

1:37.9

rosy headlines was something troubling all about incomes. I'll give you those numbers in about

1:43.9

15 minutes. But before we get to all of that, let's get to our top story of the morning.

1:49.6

The nation is in a time of great sorrow, isn't it, ladies and gentlemen? At least 18 people were killed

1:54.8

and 13 injured in Lewiston, Maine after a man opened fire on what seems to be random victims at a

bowling alley and at a restaurant. As law enforcement works to bring that man to justice,
