Tariffs Back in Effect... For Now – A federal appeals court pauses the earlier ruling against Trump’s tariffs, creating massive confusion for small businesses and global shippers. Bryan urges the White House to launch a PR campaign explaining the long-term vision behind tariff sacrifices.
U.S. Revokes Visas for All Chinese Students – Secretary of State Marco Rubio announces a sweeping visa ban targeting Chinese students in sensitive fields. Colleges, especially Harvard, panic over lost revenue and shift to borrowing billions. Critics claim the move is racist; the White House calls it national security.
Leftist Terrorism, ICE Reforms, and AOC’s Radical Resurgence – After a leftist assassin kills two Israeli diplomats, leaked messages reveal his genocidal anti-white views. Meanwhile, AOC renews calls to abolish ICE. Trump, frustrated by slow deportation rates, ousts top immigration officials and reaffirms his goal of 1 million removals per year.
Elon Musk Quits Government Role, Slams GOP Spending – Musk departs DC with harsh words for Trump and Republicans over fiscal irresponsibility. He also distances himself from Trump’s energy policy, reigniting debate over the future of EVs and solar.
Intel Clash Over Iran’s Nuclear Program – Austria says Iran’s nuclear weapons program is still active, contradicting U.S. intelligence and complicating Trump’s peace talks. Israel urges strikes; Arab leaders push for diplomacy.
Hezbollah Hit Hard in Lebanon – Israeli intel passed to the CIA is helping Lebanon’s military weaken Hezbollah’s grip, offering rare good news in the region.
Israel Ends Female Combat Pilot Program – The IDF concludes that women can't meet the physical demands of frontline supply and evacuation roles. Bryan invites veterans to weigh in on the future of women in combat within the U.S. military.

| 0:00.0 | It's May 30th. I'm Brian Dean Wright, former CIA operations officer, and this is The Wright Report. |
| 0:12.3 | A good day to you, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to The Right Report, Your Daily News, podcast. |
| 0:22.8 | It's Friday's headline brief, heavy on news, later on analysis, launching us into the weekend with events that, as ever, are shaping America and the world. |
| 0:32.7 | We begin with domestic news this morning, starting with the tariff wars. A federal appeals court put on hold the ruling from Wednesday that blocked those Trump |
| 0:41.0 | tariffs. |
| 0:41.4 | We talked about that this week, which means that the tariffs are still in effect for now. |
| 0:46.8 | The Wall Street Journal and Reuters report that the appeals court in D.C., directed both |
| 0:50.8 | the Trump administration and the plaintiffs to provide the court with additional |
| 0:54.5 | information by June 9th. That means we should see further rulings shortly thereafter. |
| 1:00.0 | But as Reuters noted, the general legal consensus this morning is that the White House will |
| 1:05.1 | ultimately be victorious when all the appeals are said and done. As I shared yesterday, |
| 1:09.6 | the Trump administration has a lot of other laws and tools at their legal disposal that they can use regarding tariffs in the meantime. |

| 1:24.2 | But that did not stop the Canadians from Wayne and yesterday. |
| 1:27.3 | Oh, gosh, they had a very pointed |
| 1:28.9 | barb. The leftist prime minister, Jay Carney of Canada, said that the courts in America were right |
| 1:34.7 | to block Trump, that the president was acting unlawfully with his tariff war. The Europeans, by the way, |
| 1:40.7 | were a bit more quiet. They held their tongues offering no comment. So, oh boy, let's see how the White House deals with the Canadians next week. |
| 1:48.7 | Meanwhile, U.S. businesses are screaming into the night saying, yeah, come on, somebody, please, just give us consistency. |
| 1:55.4 | As I shared yesterday, small businesses are getting hammered again with this ruling because they had started to ship purchases |
| 2:02.2 | to non-Chinese suppliers or began to find and buy from American suppliers. But as the Wall Street |
