Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down a new US military strike on Iran's Larak Island after satellites caught the IRGC preparing to re-mine the Strait of Hormuz, and Iran's retaliatory missile barrage on a US base in Jordan.
Bryan covers a historic oil deal giving the US a 35% stake in Venezuela's massive offshore reserves, a leaked top-secret Pentagon document revealing internal military dissent over Middle East troop deployments, and President Trump's social media hint that the Marshall Islands and Micronesia could become US territories or even states. He also breaks down a controversial court ruling that blocks the State Department from revoking the visas of foreign students who engage in anti-American speech.
Plus, Bryan covers Spanish vigilantes torching migrant camps in Ceuta after their government failed to act, a populist upset victory for Australia's One Nation party, new screwworm cases near the Arizona border, and warnings that this year's mega El Niño is scrambling global supplies of copper, rice, coffee, and cocoa.
