In this Veterans Day edition of The Wright Report, Bryan honors those who have served while covering critical stories about America's security and Western civilization's future. U.S. Drone Strikes Confirm Narco-Terror Targets: An Associated Press investigation confirmed that the 60 individuals killed in recent U.S. strikes on drug boats in the Caribbean were all traffickers for Venezuela's and Colombia's narco networks — not innocent fishermen as critics claimed. Bryan notes, "These were bad guys with bad stuff bound for our streets. Our intel nailed it." Latin Kings Declare War on DHS: Intelligence from DHS reveals that the Latin Kings gang has ordered members to "shoot to kill" ICE and Border Patrol agents. Over the weekend, a gunman in Chicago opened fire on DHS officers before being captured. Bryan warns, "This was likely a near-miss of an assassination order — and it's only a matter of time before one succeeds." Chinese Spies at a Missouri Air Base: Two Chinese nationals tied to Beijing's intelligence networks purchased a trailer park sharing a fence line with Whiteman Air Force Base — home to America's B-2 stealth bombers. Bryan details how such locations could be used for cyberattacks, surveillance, or even weapons deployment. "This isn't random," he says. "It's preparation for future conflict." Rebuilding America's Shipyards: The White House is pushing to revive U.S. shipbuilding at the Philadelphia yard, now run by South Korea's Hanwha Ocean. The goal: from one commercial ship a year to twenty, plus new submarines. Bryan says, "It's a start — slow and messy, but it's how we rebuild American greatness." China's Glass Jaw: Exports are plunging, deflation is deepening, and Xi Jinping's economy is faltering despite the recent trade truce with Trump. Bryan calls it proof that "China looks tough, but its jaw is made of glass — and we have the leverage to crack it." Trump vs. The BBC: President Trump is threatening a $1 billion lawsuit against the BBC after leaked documents revealed it deliberately edited his January 6th speech to make it sound violent. Bryan connects the scandal to a wider media war on populism: "This isn't just about Trump. It's about the West reclaiming truth and its civilization." A 100-Year-Old Veteran's Warning: Bryan closes with the words of British WWII veteran Alec Penstone, who said the sacrifice of his generation "wasn't worth what the country is now." Bryan reflects, "That's the challenge before us — to make our nations worthy again of the freedom they fought for."   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Veterans Day 2025, U.S. drone strikes Caribbean narco boats, Latin Kings DHS assassination plot, Whiteman AFB Chinese espionage, Philadelphia shipyard Hanwha Ocean, China economy deflation Xi Jinping, Trump BBC lawsuit January 6 edits, Alec Penstone WWII veteran quote

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk, Russian drones breaching NATO airspace, Trump's war on Venezuela's cartels, Mexico's tariff fight with China, a pharmaceutical victory in Tennessee, and new revelations in the 9/11 families' lawsuit against Saudi Arabia. From political violence at home to dangerous escalations abroad, today's brief carries heavy news on a day of prayer and remembrance.   Charlie Kirk Assassinated in Utah: The 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder was gunned down while speaking at Utah Valley University. President Trump called him “a martyr for truth and freedom” and ordered flags at half-staff. Video shows a sniper shot to the neck from a rooftop as Kirk addressed thousands of students. MSNBC sparked outrage with coverage that suggested Kirk's “awful words” made his death inevitable. Bryan warns, “The seal has now been broken: if you make those arguments or say those words, you're fair game too.”   Russian Drones Violate Polish Airspace: NATO confirms 19 Russian drones flew over 150 miles into Poland, with several shot down by Dutch and Polish jets. Bryan cautions that even an accident could spark a “Gulf of Tonkin–like incident” dragging NATO into direct war with Moscow.   Trump Escalates War on Venezuela's Cartels: After U.S. forces sank a drug boat killing 11, critics accuse Trump of overstepping presidential authority.
