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, we cover the indictment of James Comey, a national DOJ investigation into George Soros, Pete Hegseth's extraordinary call for all generals to return to Virginia, Trump's warning to Democrats about pushing conservatives too far, and headline updates on tariffs, green energy, AI, and global flashpoints.
Quick hits to set your radar for the weekend.
James Comey Indicted:
The former FBI director faces charges of false statements and obstruction of justice. Trump pushed prosecutors to act before the statute of limitations expired, insisting Comey's role in Crossfire Hurricane was "a coup" against the elected government. Bryan argued, "James Comey deserves the death penalty… it would be a righteous and correct judgment."
DOJ Targets Soros's Open Society Foundations:
At least seven U.S. attorneys will probe Soros funding networks for alleged terrorism support, arson, fraud, and racketeering. Bryan compares the crackdown to federal efforts in the 1960s and 70s against the Weather Underground.
Pentagon Showdown Next Week:
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth summoned every U.S. general and admiral worldwide to a meeting in Virginia as Trump demands a 20 percent cut in four-star officers. Politico reports many senior leaders are unhappy with the rebrand to the Department of War.
Trump Warns Democrats on Violence:
After MSNBC and the John Brown Gun Club suggested ICE agents "deserved" recent attacks, Trump warned, "The Left better not get the Right energized because it won't be good for the Left."
Turning Point Rejects Kimmel's 'Apology':
Spokesman Andrew Kolve said, "What we need is, 'I'm sorry, I lied, I was wrong, and I won't do it again.' Otherwise… his political agenda is more important than the life of my friend who was just taken from us."
Dallas Shooter Update:
The killer searched "Charlie Kirk shot video" while planning his ICE attack, suggesting a copycat killing. FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed he used Democrat-developed tracking apps to stalk ICE agents.
NYC Worker Punished for Helping ICE:
A city staffer was retrained after reporting two criminal illegals to ICE, violating sanctuary laws that protect even convicted felons from deportation. Bryan called it "diabolical."
Tariff Cheaters and Whirlpool's Complaint:
Appliance makers are under DOJ investigation for undervaluing imports to dodge tariffs, costing U.S. producers.
Green Energy Failures:
California's $2.2 billion Ivanpah solar farm is shutting down after killing 6,000 birds annually. Bryan added, "That's wonderful news for the birds."
AI Revolution Goes Federal:
Elon Musk's Grok chatbot is now the U.S. government's official AI system, including for secret agencies, despite studies showing AI is unreliable and prone to lying.
Global Watch for the Weekend:
Farmers furious at Argentina selling soybeans to China, European leaders ready to shoot down Russian aircraft, Britain exploring digital IDs, Tony Blair offering to run Gaza, and new medical studies on obesity, eye health, and aging.
"And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32

| 0:00.0 | It's September 26th. I'm Brian Dean Wright, former CIA operations officer, and this is The Wright Report. |
| 0:12.6 | A good day to you, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to The Right Report, Your Daily News, podcast. |
| 0:22.5 | It's Friday's headline brief, heavy on news, lighter on analysis, launching us into the weekend with events that, as ever, are shaping America in the world. |
| 0:32.1 | We begin with domestic news this morning, starting with the indictment of James Comey. ABC News reports that America's former FBI director was officially indicted yesterday. |
| 0:42.3 | He faces one count of making false statements to Congress and one count of obstruction of justice. |
| 0:47.6 | The administration's U.S. attorney on this case, Ms. Lindsay Halligan, is taking this indictment |
| 0:51.9 | to a grand jury, but only after her predecessor, |
| 0:54.7 | Mr. Eric Siebert, he was fired for refusing to do the same. He felt that these charges were weak, |
| 1:00.3 | and he couldn't get them through the D.C. or Northern Virginia grand jury pool. But President |
| 1:05.6 | Trump was furious about that. He felt that the facts and the data and the evidence were all very, |
| 1:09.9 | very clear, and that the statute of limitations were about to expire. In fact, next week, which is true. |
| 1:15.8 | So in came Ms. Halligan and out went that Mr. Siebert, who, by the way, and this is interesting, |
| 1:21.1 | he was elevated to his position by an Obama official back in 2010, and he was staunchly supported |
| 1:26.2 | by both Democrat senators in Virginia. |
| 1:28.5 | And that kind of explains why Trump was a little bit suspicious about what was going on here. |
| 1:33.4 | He thought that Mr. Siebert was likely dragging his feet on this case to get it past that statute of |
| 1:38.4 | limitations next week and thus protect Obama-era officials or anti-Trump deep staters like |
| 1:43.7 | James Comey from ever seen justice. |
| 1:46.5 | And we should remind ourselves that Deep State is the right set of words for this guy, Mr. Comey. |
| 1:51.4 | That disgraced FBI director has long come under fire for launching the investigation into President Trump, |
| 1:56.9 | known as Crossfire Hurricane, and he did so without any kind of predicate or justification. |
| 2:02.3 | A special counsel discovered that that was and is true that the lawlessness of James Comey of this |
