Glenn explains that six stories that may seem unrelated at first are actually connected and perfectly encapsulate the problems America is facing, including the possibility of qualified immunity for government officials. Glenn warns that these are not just stories; these are sirens, warning you of what's happening in our country. Glenn brings in his chief researcher, Jason, to explain the latest on who the American military has taken out in this conflict with Iran. Pat Gray, BlazeTV host of "Pat Gray Unleashed," joins to talk over some of the biggest stories, including the Iran conflict and the fraud within the Democratic Party.

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan delivers a deep strategic briefing on the war with Iran, including new intelligence that the IRGC has fully seized control of the country, sidelining the clerical regime and turning Iran into a military junta. Bryan explains how Iran is shifting to guerrilla warfare tactics, using drones, sea mines, and disguised vessels to disrupt shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and pressure global markets, while the U.S. weighs next steps including potential island seizures and securing nuclear material. He also breaks down President Trump's evolving strategy, including a major shift to allow some Iranian oil to flow in order to stabilize global prices, the lack of international support for naval operations, and what that means for America carrying the burden of the fight. Finally, Bryan outlines what comes next, from possible terror threats and Red Sea escalation to five scenarios for how the war could end, including a negotiated deal, regional escalation, or Trump declaring victory and stepping back ahead of midterm pressures.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Iran war update, IRGC control Iran military junta, Strait of Hormuz guerrilla tactics drones mines, USS Tripoli Marines Kharg Island strategy, Trump oil policy Iran sanctions shift, global oil market stabilization Iran war, Red Sea escalation Houthis Saudi pipeline, Iran war end scenarios deal vs victory, Bryan Dean Wright podcast, The Wright Report

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, we begin with the death of Stanford professor Paul Ehrlich who made his name as the author of “The Population Bomb,” a 1968 book that shaped the way many in his generation thought about demographics. He died on Friday at age 93, having lived long enough to see the world's population quadruple. His unrealistic prophecies never came true. Also WOKE Hollywood Oscar attendees leave the theatre littered with trash, actor Jerry O'Connell claims wife and daughters ‘became physical' after his comments about Kamala Harris losing to Trump, Iran's new Ayatollah reportedly gay (and according to President Trump now "badly disfigured") and the Democrat's DHS funding plan says "no ICE!"

America must intensify its efforts to combat radical Islam within its borders by enhancing surveillance and deradicalization programs, as evidenced by the recent ISIS-inspired attack in New York City, where two teenagers threw homemade explosives at a crowd during an anti-Islam protest. The Austin bar shooting, where a gunman with apparent Islamist ties killed three and injured over a dozen, underscores the urgency for stricter immigration vetting and community monitoring to prevent such ideologically driven violence. Similarly, the attack on Temple Israel in Michigan, where a man rammed his vehicle into the synagogue and opened fire amid a surge in anti-Semitic threats, highlights the need for fortified security at religious sites vulnerable to radicalized individuals. To push back effectively, federal and local agencies should prioritize intelligence-sharing and proactive interventions against online radicalization that fueled these incidents.

In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan delivers the latest developments in the war with Iran, including new estimates that the conflict could last several more weeks as U.S. and Israeli forces continue targeting Iran's nuclear infrastructure near Isfahan. Bryan also reports on the Pentagon preparing possible operations to secure Iran's enriched uranium, the deployment of the USS Tripoli and the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit to the region, and the strategic importance of islands and shipping lanes in the Strait of Hormuz as the U.S. works to reopen global energy routes. Plus, the White House pressures European and Asian powers to send naval forces to the Gulf, oil markets brace for sustained price spikes, intelligence questions swirl around Iran's new Supreme Leader, and Israel prepares for a possible ground offensive against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Iran war update, Operation Epic Fury, Isfahan nuclear facility Iran strikes, USS Tripoli 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit deployment, Strait of Hormuz oil shipping crisis, Kharg Island Iran oil exports, Iran Supreme Leader succession rumors, Israel Hezbollah Lebanon ground invasion, global oil price spike Iran war, Bryan Dean Wright podcast, The Wright Report

Since the new Ayatollah has not been seen, much speculation is arising about him. Plus, John Fetterman was on Fox News and said the IRGC is playing "Weekend at the Ayatollah's."  Visit the Howie Carr Radio Network website to access columns, podcasts, and other exclusive content.

According to multiple sources, the war in Iran is expected to last at least another three weeks. Allegations have surfaced that the ayatollah's son may be gay - a significant detail given that being LGBTQ+ in Iran is criminally prohibited - and some suggest this could shed further light on the personalities and motivations of both the ayatollah and his son. On a lighter note, Conan O'Brien received widespread praise for his performance hosting last night's Oscars, marking his second consecutive year leading the ceremony. Mark interviews New York Post journalist Michael Goodwin. Michael discusses media credibility in today's landscape, specifically, what audiences can and cannot trust from major news outlets. The guys also touch on recent antisemitic attacks, including synagogue shootings in Minnesota and Georgia, and how those events are testing the standards and skills of modern journalism. Jewish leaders would like to meet with Mayor Mamdani to discuss their concerns, but the Mayor looked like he shrugged it off. When Stephen Colbert wraps up his final show, sources indicate there will be no formal send-off. Additionally, Access Hollywood has officially been cancelled by NBCUniversal. Mark also breaks down a newly identified category of emails found within the Epstein files. Could Iran be under a different regime within a matter of months? Mark weighs in. Mark interviews author Mark Malkoff. Both Marks make the case that Johnny Carson was the greatest Oscars host of all time. The conversation explores Carson's personal struggles, including his well-documented battle with alcohol, and how he managed to maintain his professionalism and signature charm throughout his tenure on The Tonight Show. Malkoff also addresses whether Carson ever had a notable falling-out with anyone during his storied career. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As tensions with Iran escalate, Democrats suddenly claim to care about rising gas prices—despite years of supporting policies designed to increase them. Tara breaks down the political messaging war happening alongside the military conflict and explains how Iran's strategy relies on weakening American public support for President Trump. Meanwhile, reports suggest Iran's leadership may be in chaos, missile attacks are dropping, and U.S. operations are hitting key Iranian infrastructure. Tara also reflects on the tragic loss of U.S. service members after a KC-135 crash in Iraq and what the latest military moves around Kharg Island could mean for the next phase of the conflict. SUMMARY This episode examines the political and military narratives surrounding the U.S. conflict with Iran. Tara argues that Iran cannot defeat the United States militarily and is instead focusing on shaping American public opinion through political pressure and media narratives. Democrats are now warning about rising gas prices caused by the war—despite years of advocating policies designed to raise fuel costs to accelerate the transition to electric vehicles. Tara contrasts today's fuel prices with the record highs during the Biden administration, when inflation peaked and gasoline exceeded five dollars per gallon. The episode also explores reports of chaos within Iran's leadership after the death of the Ayatollah and the possible incapacitation of his successor. With Iranian missile attacks reportedly declining and key energy infrastructure under pressure, analysts suggest the U.S. campaign has been strategically effective so far. However, risks remain. The U.S. may deploy several hundred Marines to secure Kharg Island, a critical Iranian oil export hub. Tara warns that any American casualties could quickly become political leverage for critics of the war at home. Finally, the show honors the American service members lost in the KC-135 crash in Iraq and reflects on the sacrifices made by the military during ongoing operations in the region. KEY TALKING POINTS Democrats warn about gas prices after years of supporting higher fuel costs Iran's strategy may rely on political pressure inside the U.S. Gas prices today compared to Biden-era inflation peaks Reports that Iran's leadership may be unstable or incapacitated Declining Iranian missile and drone attacks Strategic importance of Kharg Island operations Potential Marine deployment and risks on the ground Remembering the service members lost in the KC-135 crash SOCIAL MEDIA BLURB Democrats suddenly care about gas prices—but only after war with Iran begins. Tara exposes the political messaging battle happening at home while U.S. forces strike key Iranian targets abroad.

The battle for the Strait of Hormuz could determine the future of global energy—and the outcome of the war with Iran. Tara explains why this strategic chokepoint matters far beyond the Middle East and why Iran's only real path to victory may be political pressure inside the United States. With reports that U.S. Marines could deploy to secure Kharg Island and Iran's missile attacks dropping sharply, Tara breaks down the latest military developments and why analysts say the campaign has been far more successful than critics claim. At the same time, Tara questions media narratives about Iran gaining the “upper hand” while reports suggest the regime's leadership may be incapacitated and its military infrastructure heavily degraded. The real fight now, she argues, is over public opinion—both in America and among global allies whose willingness to stand with the United States could shape the post-war world. SUMMARY In this episode, Tara examines the strategic and political stakes of the conflict with Iran, focusing on the critical importance of the Strait of Hormuz. The narrow waterway serves as one of the world's most vital energy corridors, and Iran has long treated it as leverage against the global economy. Military analysts warn that securing nearby Kharg Island—which handles the overwhelming majority of Iran's oil exports—could effectively cut off Tehran's economic lifeline. Reports suggest the United States may deploy several hundred Marines in a limited operation to secure the island after extensive strikes weakened Iranian defenses. Tara explains why such an operation carries risk, particularly in a political environment where even limited casualties could shift public opinion at home. The episode also explores reports that Iranian missile and drone attacks have dropped significantly and that analysts see little evidence the regime is holding back a hidden arsenal for a final strike. Tara questions media narratives suggesting Iran is gaining the upper hand, noting the uncertainty surrounding the country's leadership after the death of the Ayatollah and reports that his successor may be incapacitated. Beyond the battlefield, Tara argues the conflict is exposing deeper geopolitical tensions. She discusses President Trump's call for international support to secure shipping lanes in the Strait of Hormuz and suggests the request is as much a test of global alliances as a military necessity. The episode concludes with a broader look at America's strategic position in the world and why the political battle surrounding the war may ultimately prove just as consequential as the military one. KEY TALKING POINTS Why the Strait of Hormuz is one of the world's most critical energy choke points Iran's strategy of using global oil markets as leverage The strategic importance of Kharg Island in the conflict Reports of a potential limited Marine operation to secure the island Declining Iranian missile and drone attacks Questions surrounding Iran's leadership stability The political battle for public opinion in the United States How the conflict could reshape global alliances and energy markets SOCIAL MEDIA BLURB The war with Iran may hinge on one tiny waterway. Tara explains why the Strait of Hormuz—and the fight for Kharg Island—could decide the conflict and reshape global energy.

1. No Endless War or Ground Occupation Strong emphasis that this is not Iraq or Afghanistan: No large ground invasion No nation-building No long-term occupation Military strategy described as rapid, overwhelming, air-dominant action. Confidence that U.S. casualties will be minimal and duration short. 2. Military Action Against Iran Is Justified as Self-Defense The conflict is framed as a response to 47 years of Iranian aggression, including: Sponsorship of terrorism Killing nearly a thousand Americans Attempted assassinations of U.S. officials Iran is described as an irrational, theocratic death cult, making deterrence unreliable. Nuclear capability in Iran is portrayed as an existential threat to U.S. cities. 3. This Is “America First,” Not a War for Israel Repeated rejection of claims that the war is driven by Israel or Jewish influence. Such claims are labeled dishonest, antisemitic, and propaganda. The stated motivation: protecting American lives and national security. 4. Gas Prices Are a Short-Term Political Weapon Gas price increases are framed as temporary and expected due to Middle East conflict. Democrats are accused of exploiting gas prices the same way they previously focused on egg prices. The speaker argues prices are still lower than under Biden, despite rising from recent lows. Long-term expectation: Iran’s collapse would lower global gas prices. 5. Strong Leadership vs. Weak Appeasement Trump is decisive and feared by adversaries. Obama and Biden are criticized for appeasement and failed nuclear deals. Past diplomatic failures (North Korea, Iran nuclear deal) are cited as evidence diplomacy failed. 6. Harsh Criticism of Tucker Carlson and Isolationists Tucker Carlson is accused of: Spreading anti-American propaganda Echoing Islamist narratives Undermining U.S. troops His statements about unconditional surrender and nuclear escalation are called: False Dangerous Morally grotesque Isolationist conservatives are grouped with progressive Democrats as a shared threat to U.S. foreign policy. 7. Iranian Regime Change Is Seen as Necessary The appointment of a new Iranian leader (son of the former Ayatollah) is rejected. Any continuation of clerical Islamist rule is deemed unacceptable. Regime collapse is framed as the only path to lasting security. 8. Deterrence Fails with Religious Extremism Comparison between North Korea and Iran: North Korea: dangerous but rational Iran: irrational due to religious ideology Argument: Traditional nuclear deterrence does not work with actors who glorify martyrdom. 9. Public Opinion Depends on Duration and Casualties Acknowledgment that support would collapse if: War drags on for years U.S. casualties rise significantly Confidence expressed that this outcome is “near zero.” 10. Closing Shift to Religion and AI Ends with an unexpected, uplifting segment: An AI-generated Christian apologetic is quoted at length. The response argues Christianity is intellectually compelling, historically grounded, and uniquely truthful.

We are being fed a constant narrative that the Ayatollah is evil, that he is a terrorist and that he is leading an army that will attack America and put our nation at risk. What no one is talking about is that the CIA under President Carter helped the Ayatollah to come to power and replace the Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlav. No one is talking about the CIA's role in training the Shahs torture program run under the SAVAK nor that Shia Muslims were the primary target of the torture. Question everything. We created the problem we are now trying bomb out of existence to cover our tracks and change the understanding of historical events.  #BardsFM_Morning #TruthBehindTheLies #Peacemakers Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com EnviroKlenz Air Purification, promo code BARDS to save 10%: www.enviroklenz.com EMPShield protect your vehicles and home.

In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers a wave of Islamist terror attacks across the U.S., including a deadly shooting at Old Dominion University in Virginia and a car bombing attempt at a synagogue and daycare in Michigan. Bryan then turns to the war with Iran, where Tehran has escalated its attacks on oil infrastructure across the Middle East, striking tankers near Iraq, targeting an oil port in Oman, and hitting cargo ships in the Strait of Hormuz as energy markets brace for further disruption. He also reports on U.S. and Israeli strikes inside Iran that are targeting regime forces and infrastructure, new AI-assisted military operations speeding up targeting decisions, and the growing debate in Washington about how long the war will last and what victory might look like. Finally, Bryan closes the week with some encouraging medical research, including new findings on how exercise can boost memory and brain health, plus emerging science linking gut health to sharper thinking as we age.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Islamist terror attacks Virginia Michigan, Old Dominion University shooting, synagogue attack Michigan Dearborn, Iran war escalation Strait of Hormuz, Iranian drone attacks oil tankers Middle East, US Israel strikes Tehran IRGC, AI targeting warfare Iran conflict, Trump Iran war strategy, exercise brain health memory research, Bryan Dean Wright podcast, The Wright Report

The Iran war is somehow both ending and just beginning. Trump wants out, but there's no clean exit. The US bombed an elementary school in Tehran. Iran has a new Ayatollah who's likely worse than the old one. Israel bombed Iranian oil facilities—and the US is reportedly furious. Meanwhile, Trump celebrates rising oil prices ("we make a lot of money"), and American Jews are caught in the crossfire with synagogue attacks at home.Plus: Jim Clyburn is 85 years old and running for his 18th term in Congress (GO HOME, JIM). The Senate will vote on Trump's doomed SAVE Act. Palantir's CEO said the quiet part loud about disrupting democratic power. Republicans lack of desire to regulate AI has consequences and they are showing up against Talarico in Texas. The FBI will be trained by UFC fighters, and Trump endorsed Jake Paul for... something.This is the chaos.

It's been a week that's seen a new Ayatollah proclaimed in Iran. Mojtaba Khamenei, son of the assassinated supreme leader Ali Khamenei, has not been seen in public and is believed to be in hiding after reportedly being injured in the same strike that killed his father. State television showed crowds chanting “Long Live Khamenei”, while at night in Tehran some residents risked arrest to shout from their windows: “Death to Mojtaba”. A statement attributed to the new leader vowed continued attacks on US and Israeli interests, the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, and what it called “never-ending revenge”.

NEWS WEAKLY – The Story of KarbalaThis week, I step away from the headlines to tell one of the most powerful stories in the Muslim world: the Battle of Karbala. The death of Husain ibn Ali in 680 CE shaped the split between Sunni and Shia Islam and created a moral narrative about power, justice, and martyrdom that still echoes through modern politics, from Karachi to Tehran.It's a very different episode, but I feel like it's a central element missing from the analysis and understanding of Iran and the IRGC's self perception, global Shia empathy towards the Ayatollah, and how the Iranian government has become that which it purports to hate.Shenanigans and tomfoolery will be back next week.

Iran has named Mojtaba Khamenei as the Islamic Republic’s new supreme leader after his father was killed in US-Israeli strikes. Little-known publicly but influential behind the scenes, he takes power during a rapidly escalating regional war. Who is Mojtaba Khamenei, and what could his leadership mean for the country and the conflict ahead?

1. U.S. Military Success Against Iran (“Operation Epic Fury”) The U.S. has massively reduced Iran’s missile and drone launch capacity over eight days. U.S. forces allegedly destroyed air defenses, missile sites (including mobile launchers), drone infrastructure, and naval capabilities. They argue the U.S. now holds air and naval superiority, enabling cheaper munitions and sustained operations. 2. Global Oil Strategy and Potential Seizure of Kharg Island Discussion of Iran’s dependency on Kharg Island as its primary oil export hub (≈90%). Suggestion that the U.S. may be positioning itself to seize or control this strategic point. This would cripple Iran financially, control the Strait of Hormuz, and create major leverage over China’s energy supply. 3. Domestic Terror Concerns Several incidents referenced (NYC explosive scare, Austin attack, embassy explosion in Norway). Such threats are not caused by the Iran conflict but by long-standing extremist ideology. Strong accusations that open border policies increased vulnerability to terrorism. 4. DHS Funding Fight in Congress Democrats are accused of keeping parts of DHS unfunded (Coast Guard, TSA, FEMA) while ICE remains funded due to earlier legislation. The speakers assert this creates risk to national security during a heightened terror threat environment. Claim: Democrats are doing this to appeal to their base who oppose ICE and strict immigration enforcement. 5. Global Reactions and Rising Islamist Activity Some Islamist groups allegedly responding violently worldwide due to Iran’s conflict and loss of funding. Concern raised that DHS funding issues undermine the U.S.’s ability to defend against these threats. 6. Criticism of Democrat Positions on Iran Senator Chris Murphy is specifically criticized for defending the Obama-era Iran nuclear deal. The deal never provided real inspection rights and would have allowed Iran to eventually obtain nuclear weapons. Trump pulling out of the deal and attacking Iranian facilities set Iran’s program back significantly. 7. Tucker Carlson Controversy “Unconditional surrender” leads to U.S. soldiers committing atrocities. The U.S. might require nuclear weapons to force Iranian surrender. These statements are anti-American, extremist, and helpful to Islamist propaganda. Claims that Iranian state media and the Muslim Brotherhood promote Carlson’s segments. 8. New Iranian Leadership Iran allegedly names the son of the previous Ayatollah as its new leader. Speakers argue any continuation of clerical rule is unacceptable for U.S. security. They describe Iran’s leadership as religious extremists who cannot be deterred like other states. 9. Airport Security Incidents and Public Anxiety Several recent flight diversions and security scares are mentioned. Reduced DHS staffing (due to the funding dispute) worsens risks and delays.

Nicolle Wallace covers everything that has transpired a week after Donald Trump waged war with Iran. 8 U.S. service members have died, the White House did not rule out a draft, the Wall Street Journal says we are facing the worst energy crisis since the 1970s, and the Iranian regime has named Khamenei's son, Mojtaba Khamenei, as the new Ayatollah. Amid all the chaos, Trump told a CBS reporter today that the war is Iran “is very complete.” Later, Nicolle covers reporting from the Daily Mail that suggests that the White House is blocking the publication of a report by the FBI, Homeland Security, and the National Counterterrorism Center which warns local law enforcement across the U.S. of the potential of terrorist attacks due to the war in Iran.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 67: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump is in essence paying to provide Iran with the location of our forces in the Middle East. Our ships, jets, troops. Trump has just waived part of the embargo against Russian oil. So Iran’s ally Russia can sell MORE oil to India to get more money. Thus Russia can spend that money to gather more information on where American forces are IN the war. So Russia can give that information TO IRAN, and reportedly is, AND nobody in the Trump Rogue Government is denying it. Trump is in effect paying Russia, to help Iran attack Americans in this war. And in case you had doubts over Russia's loyalty, its minister to Britain just repeated on television there that it is not neutral in this war, that it is siding with Iran and will help it., So, what’s that called again? When you’re fighting a war, and people in your government help a country that’s helping the country you’re fighting the war AGAINST? What’s that called again? Tree Surgery? Trea-Ting? Trea... Never mind the other problems: we a) have no business being there; b) we are not winning; c) we are going to be there for years or d) Trump is going to have to cut and run or e) Trump's setting us up for an Iranian revenge terror attack here. And just to follow up on the End-Of-The-World Rapture religious crap motivating dozens of US military commanders, one Senator has actually joined the hallelujah chorus: Senator Cramer of North Dakota says we are there because of a BIBLICAL COMMITMENT to Israel. Iran: it is far worse than you think. B-Block (38:30) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: It's a full scale pie fight over in Fascist Media. Megyn Kelly, Bill Ackman, Nepobaby Tucker Carlson, Grand-Nepobaby Buckley Carlson, and others all attacking each other - it's delightful. Then there's US Weekly's disastrous post about the passing of a celebrity-adjacent figure. And if you haven't heard this you won't believe it. They've managed to position the "White House" sign perfectly behind Karoline Leavitt in just the perfect place so when she stands all the way to her left, it reads behind her... Well, no, I'm going to make you listen to find out. C-Block (49:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: I told somebody this story the other day so now I'll tell you. If you can envision me, Chris Matthews, Joe Scarborough, Lester Holt, and Jesse Ventura inside an MSNBC men's room talking about inches - this story is for you. Happily it was about our new president and how he was the tallest man any of us had ever met who was clearly lying about his own height. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

PREVIEW FOR LATER Husain Haqqani examines the religious implications of the Ayatollah's martyrdom, warning it could trigger a Shia awakening and influence the IRGC's ideological warfare. (4)1820 PERSIA

In this episode of the Derek Hunter Podcast, guest host Dean Karayanis, New York Sun columnist and former Rush Limbaugh staffer, delivers a sharp-witted and historical analysis of the escalating conflict with Iran. Following the death of the previous Ayatollah, Dean mocks the appointment of his son, Mojtaba Khamenei, by the "Council of Experts" — a puppet organization designed to maintain a hereditary dictatorship under the guise of an Islamic “Republic.” He targets Western media, like the New York Times, for "romanticizing" the new leader as a "man of mystery" rather than a standard fanatic. The IRIS Dena vs. The Belgrano Strategy: A significant portion of the show is dedicated to Dean's recent column for the New York Sun, where he compares the recent sinking of the Iranian frigate IRIS Dena to the 1982 sinking of the ARA General Belgrano during the Falklands War. Just as the Argentine junta claimed the Belgrano was "sailing away" and outside an Exclusion Zone, Iran and its supporters are framing the destruction of the Dena as a war crime because it was in international waters. The Reality: Karayanis cites historical evidence—including a 1982 BBC interview with Margaret Thatcher and later admissions by the Belgrano's captain—to argue that "international waters" do not grant immunity to enemy combatants executing tactical maneuvers. In truth, the Dena was warned twice by the U.S. and offered safe harbor by India, but the captain chose to proceed, making the ship a legal military target. The Culture of Mockery and Free Speech: A broader critique of "useful idiots" in the West and the decline of creative freedom. Dean creative diversity, critiquing the "X-Men Reboot" social media account, arguing that modern writers have turned characters into political avatars for themsevles. He uses Nightcrawler and Magneto as examples of how true diversity includes diversity of belief and internal conflict. British "Tools of Hate": Dean mocks the U.K. labor government's labeling of the Union Jack and St. George's Cross as “symbols of hate,” exposed in a leaked report, a stance that outraged liberal (but not leftist) John Cleese. “The Germans” episode of Cleese's landmark series, “Fawlty Towers, illustrates that comedy is being stifled by people who refuse to analyze the "butt of the joke," which is often the person being unreasonable, not the victims of history. Dean concludes with a message of resilience, urging listeners to support the "flying machines" and the brave individuals fighting to dismantle the Iranian regime, while maintaining a sense of humor in the face of global tension.

In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers two terror attacks linked to the widening war with Iran, including a bombing at the U.S. Embassy in Oslo and an attempted IED attack against protesters and police in New York City.  Bryan then reports on new developments inside Iran, including discussions in Washington about deploying U.S. Special Forces to secure loose nuclear material, CIA efforts to recruit Iranian intelligence officers abroad, and the latest decisions from President Trump on whether Kurdish fighters should play a role in the war.  He also breaks down the escalating economic and geopolitical stakes, from soaring oil prices and possible operations against Iran's main oil export hub to China supplying chemicals for Iranian rockets, Russia sharing targeting intelligence with Tehran, and the growing risk of global economic shock.    "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Iran war escalation, Oslo US Embassy attack, NYC Islamist IED plot, US Special Forces Iran nuclear material, CIA recruiting Iranian spies, Kharg Island oil export hub, global oil shock 2026, China rocket fuel Iran, Russia intelligence Iran war, Bryan Dean Wright podcast, The Wright Report

Today's Headlines: Iran has a new Supreme Leader: Mojtaba Khamenei, son of the late Ayatollah, who is reportedly a bigger hardliner than his father — whose death he can thank the U.S. and/or Israel for, along with his wife's. Trump immediately called him "unacceptable," which might've been useful information before the bombing campaign began. The U.S. death toll from Iranian retaliatory strikes is now at 8, oil just crossed $100 a barrel for the first time in four years, and the White House press secretary went on Fox News and refused to rule out a draft. Meanwhile, the CIA is reportedly arming Kurdish forces to stir up an internal uprising in Iran, while U.S. and Israeli officials are discussing sending special forces in to secure Iran's nuclear stockpile. Meanwhile, the White House blocked intelligence agencies from issuing a terrorism threat warning to local law enforcement about rising domestic risks tied to the war. When Trump was asked about Americans dying on home soil, he said "some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die."  Elsewhere in the hemisphere, Trump held a "Shield of the Americas" summit at his Doral golf club — because of course he did — gathering 17 Latin American leaders to announce a military coalition against cartels, with fired DHS Secretary Kristi Noem elevated to special envoy of the whole thing. Trump also started floating regime change in Cuba, because the Iran war apparently wasn't enough. In other chaos: Hungary detained seven Ukrainian bank employees carrying $82 million in cash and two armored vehicles, which Ukraine called "state terrorism." Two teenagers from Pennsylvania were arrested for attempting to set off explosive devices outside New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's home during dueling protests. Senate Republicans blocked a bill that would have forced disclosure of Epstein's financial records, and no one is asking any follow-up questions about that. And Texas Rep. Tony Gonzales — currently under House Ethics investigation — is dropping his reelection bid but refusing to resign his seat.

1. U.S. Military Action & Objectives in Iran The U.S., alongside Israel, has conducted a major military campaign aimed at dismantling Iran’s military capabilities—missiles, drones, and leadership structure. Primary objective: Regime collapse, not a prolonged war. Trump administration views the Iranian regime as a 47‑year sponsor of terrorism and responsible for killing Americans. Intelligence suggested Iran was rapidly scaling missile and drone production, prompting immediate action. The Ayatollah and much of Iran’s security leadership were reportedly eliminated early in the conflict. 2. Nuclear & Terror Concerns Iran previously claimed it had enriched uranium sufficient for 11 nuclear bombs. U.S. officials believed Iran intended to develop and potentially use nuclear weapons. Iran has provided an estimated 90% of funding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis over decades. 3. Impact on China via Oil Disruption Iran historically sent 87% of its oil exports to China; Venezuela sent ~55%. U.S. actions against both nations’ regimes have significantly disrupted China’s energy supply chain. 4. Shake-Up at the Department of Homeland Security President Trump removed Christy Noem as DHS Secretary. Replacement: Sen. Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma. Noem faced backlash during Senate questioning—especially from Sen. John Kennedy—regarding: $220M in DHS-funded TV ads featuring her Possible improper contracting Claims that Trump approved the campaign (which he denied) Her testimony was viewed as damaging, contributing to her removal. 5. Texas Primary Elections Major developments in several key GOP races: Dan Crenshaw lost his House primary to Steve Toth, receiving criticism for confrontational behavior and losing touch with constituents. Multiple candidates endorsed by Sen. Ted Cruz won their primaries (Jessica Steinman, Chris Gober, John Bank). Texas Senate GOP runoff: John Cornyn vs. Ken Paxton—an expensive, bitter contest. Democratic nominee: James Talarico—portrayed as ideologically extreme but rhetorically moderate, making him a potentially formidable opponent. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Conflict Accelerates Tech Clay Travis and Buck Sexton discuss the geopolitical consequences of the ongoing conflict. They examine the paralysis of international shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, rising global oil prices, and how extended military engagement could impact U.S. domestic politics—especially with Democrats preparing to tie gas‑price volatility to Trump’s foreign‑policy strategy ahead of the 2026 midterms. They also discuss the administration’s unprecedented stance that President Trump intends to influence the selection of Iran’s next leader following the assassination of the Ayatollah, raising questions about regime change, constitutional monarchy possibilities, and whether Iran’s military factions might accept a U.S.-favored successor. The hosts then explore historical parallels, comparing modern drone‑ and intelligence-driven warfare to conflicts such as the Gulf War and the 2003 Iraq invasion, suggesting that advances in technology have made “boots on the ground” less essential. This leads to a broader conversation about whether internal Iranian opposition could rise up without military backing and why genuine regime change is impossible unless parts of Iran’s armed forces defect. Trump's Texas Tactics Clay and Buck analyze the fallout from the Texas primary and the growing expectation that President Trump will endorse a candidate in the Texas Senate race. They emphasize how critical the Texas seat is to preserving the GOP’s narrow Senate majority and outline the broader 2026 Senate landscape—highlighting difficult Republican battles in Maine and North Carolina, as well as opportunities in Georgia. The hosts examine how a Trump endorsement, whether for John Cornyn or Ken Paxton, signals a deliberate effort to maintain Senate control ahead of potential Supreme Court vacancies. A major portion of the hour is devoted to the explosive controversy surrounding Democratic candidate James Talarico, whose far‑left ideological positions, past tweets, and public comments have become a focal point of criticism. Clay and Buck dissect his rhetoric comparing himself to biblical figures, his claims about “white skin” being a societal contagion, and his promotion of Dr. Fauci memorabilia—framing Talarico as a deeply out‑of‑touch progressive misaligned with Texas voters. They compare him to figures like Jasmine Crockett and Beto O’Rourke, arguing that Democrats continue to misjudge which candidates appeal to mainstream Texans. They also break down the Republican strategic calculus, suggesting that Trump may back Cornyn to avoid draining resources needed for more competitive races across the country. Kristi Noem is Fired President Trump has fired DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, marking the first removal of a cabinet secretary in this administration. Clay and Buck react in real time as Fox News reports the termination and the appointment of Senator Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma as the new acting head of the Department of Homeland Security. They recount the scandals that contributed to Noem’s downfall—including reports of inappropriate spending, allegations about personal relationships, and a controversial $200 million DHS ad campaign featuring her—describing widespread bipartisan dissatisfaction after her congressional hearing. The hosts speculate on what the leadership change means for border security, immigration policy, and future DHS operations. Nerding Out with Ryan Political data analyst Ryan Girdusky, host of It’s a Numbers Game, to break down the dramatic firing of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, who was removed just minutes before stepping onstage at an event in Nashville. The hosts analyze President Trump’s official announcement elevating Senator Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma to DHS Secretary, noting that Noem’s reassignment to “Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas” signals a clear demotion. The hour digs into the controversies that precipitated her removal—especially the explosive $200 million DHS ad campaign featuring Noem, allegations that she misled Congress, and her attempt to shift blame to President Trump. Girdusky adds further context about long‑simmering internal frustrations over Noem’s self‑promotion, image‑driven leadership style, and political alliances, all of which contributed to her rapid downfall. The conversation then pivots to the 2026 Senate landscape, with a heavy focus on the Texas Senate race. Girdusky breaks down why the Trump team appears intent on securing Texas early, explaining that Republicans must lock down states like Texas, Ohio, Iowa, Alaska, and Montana to maintain Senate control. He critiques Ken Paxton’s underwhelming primary performance and praises John Cornyn’s unexpectedly strong showing, attributing it to disciplined campaigning. The hosts revisit the Democratic nominee James Talarico, highlighting the avalanche of far‑left statements and viral clips that portray him as deeply out of step with Texas voters—comments about abolishing prisons, describing “whiteness” as a moral failing, redefining Christianity through progressive ideology, and advocating extreme abortion policies. Clay, Buck, and Girdusky conclude that Talarico is even more radical than Jasmine Crockett, predicting he will crater in a statewide general election. They emphasize that Democrats are misreading Texas by nominating a candidate shaped by progressive online culture rather than real‑world Texas sensibilities.
