Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Listener Q&A episode of The Wright Report, Bryan answers your questions about the war with Iran, including Tehran's attempt to lay naval mines in the Strait of Hormuz and how those tactics could prolong the conflict and keep global energy markets under pressure.
Bryan also explores new intelligence about Iran's leadership, the possibility that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is now effectively running the country, and what that means for nuclear negotiations and the future direction of the war.
Plus, he walks through five possible scenarios for how the war might end, the risks of terrorism tied to Iran's global networks, developments involving Russia and Hezbollah, and some good economic news at home with plans for the first new U.S. oil refinery in decades.

| 0:00.0 | It's March 11th. I'm Brian Dean Wright, former CIA operations officer, and this is The Wright Report. |
| 0:12.3 | Hey, good day to you, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to The Right Report, Your Daily News, podcast. |
| 0:22.0 | I've got a listener Q&A for you this morning, an episode built by you with answers and intel by me |
| 0:27.7 | on news and updates this morning that as ever are shaping America and the world. First up, |
| 0:33.6 | let's get right to it. Mr. Marcus from Woonsocket, Rhode Island, Woonsocket. |
| 0:38.3 | That sounds like a fun place to visit. Anyway, Brian, you probably saw that Iran is trying to lay |
| 0:43.3 | mines in the Strait of Hormuz. What's that variable do as we try to end this war? Do we need |
| 0:48.5 | regime change to stop that? All right, good question. So let's first start with digging into the |

| 1:21.8 | Well then about 30 minutes later, the Pentagon and Trump both confirmed that about |
| 1:25.2 | 16 Iranian boats were blown up that were believed to be |
