Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers the planned "No Kings" protests across the U.S., Antifa-linked terrorism charges, IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley's new probe into leftist funding networks, major indictments involving voting machine companies, the arrest of former National Security Advisor John Bolton, and a surprising Pentagon media shake-up.

 

Nationwide "No Kings" Protests:
Over 200 leftist groups — including Indivisible and the Communist Party USA — are coordinating mass demonstrations against President Trump. Organizers admit they're modeling the effort on past "color revolutions," with foreign influence on Reddit shaping messaging and funding. Paid agitators and billionaire donors like George Soros and Christy Walton are also backing the events.

 

Antifa Terrorism Charges in Texas:
Two Antifa members were indicted for a July 4th attack on an ICE facility that left a police officer shot in the neck. Bryan warns the group will likely appear at this weekend's protests.

 

IRS Whistleblower Targets Leftist Donors:
Gary Shapley, who helped expose Hunter Biden's tax scandal, is now working with the Trump administration to investigate non-profits and mega-donors funding extremist groups. Democrats call it "revenge," while Trump's team insists "no one is above the law."

 

Voting Machine Scandals:
Smartmatic was indicted for bribing foreign officials to win contracts abroad, while Dominion was sold and rebranded as "Liberty Vote." Bryan calls for a return to secure, paper-based elections, drawing on his CIA experience hacking offline systems.

 

John Bolton Indicted for Leaking Secrets:
Bolton faces 18 felony counts for retaining and transmitting classified CIA materials through personal email. Iranian hackers accessed his devices, endangering American operatives. Bryan says, "He traded lives for a book deal."

 

Pentagon Restricts Media Access:
Journalists walked out after new rules allowed revoking press credentials for soliciting classified info. Bryan calls it "a long-overdue correction" given partisan infiltration of the press.

 

China, Asia, and the Americas:
Trump eyes aid to the Solomon Islands to counter China, supports Japan's conservative coalition, mediates peace between Thailand and Cambodia, and monitors troop mobilization in Venezuela.

 

Medical Breakthrough — Gut Health and Cancer:
University of Pennsylvania researchers found that exercise boosts gut bacteria producing formate, improving cancer immunotherapy. Fermented foods like yogurt, kimchi, and kefir may help patients recover faster.

It's October 17th. I'm Brian Dean Wright, former CIA operations officer, and this is The Wright Report.

0:08.5

Hey, good day to you, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the Wright Report, Your Daily News, podcast.

0:22.5

It's Friday's headline brief, heavy on news, light on analysis, launching us into the weekend with events that, as ever, are shaping America in the world.

0:31.7

We begin with domestic news this morning, starting with a day of national protests.

0:36.9

We are likely to see many thousands of

0:38.6

Democrats and leftists joining the No King's protest tomorrow. As the Hill and Fox News report,

0:44.1

over 200 groups on the left are organizing these protests. That includes, by the way, the Communist

0:49.1

Party of America. They are all gathering to agitate against President Trump, the GOP,

and what they call his fascist

1:22.7

nonprofit called Indivisible.

1:24.7

That is led by two Democrats who have worked on Capitol Hill and the

1:27.7

State Department for years. They have acknowledged that they are trying to copy what are called

1:31.8

color revolutions abroad, but do it here. So for example, there was an orange revolution in

Ukraine when then President Viktor Yanukovych was overthrown by protesters in that country,

Indivisible is now sorting through some color options.
