Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he tackles the key issues shaping America and the world. In today's episode, we cover:

The H-1B Visa Debate: Donald Trump's support for the controversial visa program sparks infighting among his supporters. We explore the history of H-1B visas, their misuse by big tech, and what the debate means for immigration policy.
Homelessness in America: New data reveals an 18% surge in homelessness but with a notable decrease in homeless veterans. We unpack the numbers and their connection to the border crisis.
Trump's Foreign Policy Gambits: From seizing the Panama Canal to pushing NATO allies to meet higher defense spending targets, we break down Trump's aggressive strategies on the world stage.

As we close out 2024, Bryan reflects on these critical topics and their implications for America's future.
