Jen Psaki, Joe Biden's former White House Press Secretary and host of MS NOW's The Briefing with Jen Psaki, talks to Dan about the ways the Trump administration is trying — and failing — to sell its war with Iran to the American people. The two discuss the White House's meme-forward messaging campaign, MAGA media's break with the president over the war, and how Trump's cell phone interview habit is shaping media coverage. Then, Dan and Jen discuss how a series of contentious Senate primaries are reshaping the Democratic Party and whether "fuck Trump" is a strong enough message heading into the midterms.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

The salient point of this morning's briefing revolves around the critical updates related to cybersecurity vulnerabilities that necessitate immediate attention from emergency managers. Specifically, the recently released CISA's Kev Catalog highlights two newly listed exploited vulnerabilities: Microsoft SharePoint CVE 2263, with a remediation deadline of March 20, and Zimbra Collaboration Suite CVE 22566376, due by April 1. It is imperative that organizations actively monitor these additions, prioritize patch mitigation for Internet-facing collaboration platforms, and validate compensating controls in situations where patching may be delayed. Additionally, we address the security alert issued by the US embassy for Iran, urging organizations with personnel in the region to ensure their communication plans are up-to-date. Lastly, updates from various states include ongoing wildfire responses in Nebraska and a public health advisory regarding a measles outbreak in Nevada, emphasizing the necessity for vaccination and infection control measures.Takeaways:* On March 18, 2026, CISA released updates regarding newly identified vulnerabilities requiring immediate remediation.* Emergency managers must prioritize patching of collaboration platforms to enhance cybersecurity measures effectively.* Organizations with personnel in Iran should maintain updated communication plans and ensure travel safety measures are in place.* The Nebraska Governor's Office is actively addressing the impacts of wildfires through community engagement and assessments.* A public health advisory in Nevada emphasizes the importance of vigilance regarding measles outbreaks and vaccination efforts.* All other states reported no significant updates, indicating a period of relative stability in emergency management activities.SourcesCISA / KEVCISA KEV data (released 2026-03-18) — SharePoint CVE-2026-20963 & Zimbra CVE-2025-66376 added; due dates listedTravel / SecurityU.S. Embassy Iran — Security Alert: Iran (March 18, 2026 update)NebraskaNebraska Governor — March 18 update: Tour Cottonwood Fire & visit Brady community (acreage/containment noted)AP — Nebraska wildfire fight continues; scale/containment contextNevadaSouthern Nevada Health District — Public Health Advisory 03/18/2026: Measles outbreaks update (vigilance & vaccination) This is a public episode.

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

The salient point of this podcast episode centers on the recent updates regarding cybersecurity vulnerabilities and significant environmental events.

Ever leave a conversation feeling like it went well — only to realize later nothing actually moved forward? AJ and Johnny break down the hidden layer in high-level conversations: the subtle tests happening beneath the surface. When someone says “tell me about yourself,” “send me an email,” or “we should stay in touch,” the real evaluation often isn't about the literal words. This episode explains how successful people use small conversational signals to quickly assess judgment, value, and alignment — and why missing those cues can quietly close doors. Chapters: 00:00 – The conversation that felt good but went nowhere01:10 – The hidden test underneath casual questions02:15 – Why “tell me about yourself” is really a judgment test03:40 – The truth behind “we should stay in touch”04:45 – How vague signals reveal your psychology06:00 – Seeing the second layer in high-stakes conversations Stop being over looked and unlock your X-Factor today at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠unlockyourxfactor.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Check out Johnny on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@Social_Intell⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tiktok @social_intel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  The very qualities that make you exceptional in your field are working against you socially.  Visit the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠artofcharm.com/intel ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠for a social intelligence assessment and discover exactly what's holding you back.

As the US-Israel war with Iran continues the Trump administration is facing mounting calls from Congress to explain why it started its campaign now, and how long it could last. In an attempt to curb surging oil and gas prices, President Trump says the US navy will, if necessary, escort oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz, which has been blocked by Iran. The crisis in the Middle East is continuing to cause turmoil on the financial markets. Shares across Asia opened sharply lower. Also, scientists in Spain studying how women's brains are altered during pregnancy say they've identified changes influencing how mothers bond with their babies.
