Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the heartbreaking Catholic school shooting in Minneapolis, a wave of swatting attacks targeting U.S. colleges, and global updates from Iran, Greenland, Vietnam, and West Africa.
From domestic terror and cultural battles at home to mineral wars and Islamist violence abroad, today's brief delivers the facts shaping America's future.
Minneapolis Catholic School Shooting:
A 23-year-old man who identified as transgender opened fire outside a Catholic school, killing two children and injuring 17 others. In his manifesto he wrote, "I do it to please myself… I do it because I am sick." The school's priest begged, "I ask you to — please — pray," while Democrats like Jen Psaki shot back, "Prayer is not freaking enough." Bryan calls Psaki's remarks "a demand of the evil and wicked" and links the shooter's instability to cross-sex hormones, THC use, and the broader dangers of experimental "gender affirming care."
Swatting Attacks Target U.S. Colleges:
Universities from South Carolina to Colorado were hit by fake active-shooter calls, prompting dangerous police raids. Wired identifies the culprits as an online group called Purgatory, who brag they are "nihilistic" and do it for fun and cash. Bryan argues the crime warrants capital punishment: "You rip this stuff and these people out by the root."
Foreign Spies Captured Bolton's Emails:
The New York Times confirms that a foreign intelligence service intercepted classified emails John Bolton sent to his wife and daughter from an unsecured system. Democrats call Trump's DOJ "fascist," but Bryan insists, "Had I done what John Bolton did, I would be in prison a long time ago."
Iran's Nuclear Stockpile Neutralized:
Satellite images confirm Trump's Operation Midnight Hammer left 900 pounds of enriched uranium entombed at Isfahan. The IAEA backs the finding, despite Iran threatening its director Rafael Grossi with death. Bryan says the news proves firing DIA chief Jeffrey Kruse for downplaying the strike was "a good clean-out of the Deep State."
American Operatives Stir Trouble in Greenland:
The Wall Street Journal reports suspected Trump-linked contractors are recruiting Greenlanders for separatist movements, sparking tensions with Denmark. Bryan suspects, "These guys are more like Erik Prince's Blackwater than CIA professionals — sloppy, but maybe effective."
China Moves to Corner Vietnam's Tungsten Supply:
Reuters reveals Chinese firms are secretly bidding for Vietnam's tungsten mines through front companies. With the U.S. sourcing a quarter of its tungsten from Vietnam, Bryan warns this could leave America "utterly dependent" on Beijing for another critical mineral.
Islamist Violence in Ivory Coast Spurs U.S. Base Plans:
Militants from Burkina Faso kill farmers in northern Ivory Coast, part of a growing jihadist campaign across West Africa. The U.S. considers building a drone and Special Forces base in Benin, Ghana, or Ivory Coast to counter both Islamists and China's expanding footprint in African resources and fishing.
"And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32
