In this episode of The Wright Report, we go around the globe for breaking updates on Trump's strike in Venezuela, Mexico's trade and cartel challenges, Canada's housing lesson, Europe's political revolt, the free speech crisis in the UK, and China's bid to reshape global power. From warships in the Caribbean to propaganda in Tiananmen Square, today's brief delivers the facts you need to navigate a rapidly changing world.   Trump Authorizes Strike on Venezuelan Drug Boat: The U.S. military sank a Tren de Aragua vessel, killing 11 narco-terrorists. Trump warned, “Please let this serve as notice to anybody even thinking about bringing drugs into the United States of America. BEWARE!” With warships and Marines stationed nearby, speculation grows that regime change could be on the table, despite White House denials.   Secretary Rubio in Mexico for Trade, Cartels, and Screwworms: President Sheinbaum raises tariffs on China under Trump's pressure, aligning with a “Fortress North America” strategy. Poverty in Mexico drops by 13 million, but reports credit Trump's 2018 labor reforms. Meanwhile, cartel boss El Mayo admitted decades of bribing Mexican politicians, and ranchers accuse Sheinbaum of letting screwworm-infested cattle in from Guatemala.   Canada's Immigration Cuts Ease Housing Costs: Bloomberg reports that stricter immigration policies have cooled Canada's housing crisis. Bryan draws a parallel: if the U.S. removed 15 to 30 million illegals, millions of homes would free up for Americans.   Europe Turns Right Amid Free Speech Crackdowns: Conservative parties surge in Germany, France, Italy, and the UK. Yet in Britain, a comedian was arrested for posts about transgender issues, joining thousands jailed yearly for “offensive” speech. VP JD Vance warned such laws amount to “civilizational suicide.”   Trump, Europe, and Ukraine's Stalemate: Trump expressed disappointment in Putin and frustration with Europe's refusal to send troops, saying peace is delayed by “maximalist demands.” European leaders hesitate, offering only weapons and logistics while rejecting boots on the ground.   China Hosts BRICS and Flaunts Military Might: Xi Jinping told India's Modi, “The globe today is swept by a once-in-a-century transformation,” signaling closer ties between Beijing and New Delhi. At a Tiananmen Square parade, Xi showcased drones and weapons while erasing U.S. contributions in WWII. Trump hit back online: “Please give my warmest regards to Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un as you conspire against The United States of America.” Bryan warns Xi's rise represents a “new Dark Age” for humanity if unchecked.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Trump Venezuela drug boat strike, Tren de Aragua narco-terrorists, Marco Rubio Mexico City talks, Mexico tariffs on China, Mexican poverty drop Trump labor reforms, El Mayo cartel bribes, screwworm outbreak Guatemala cattle, Canada immigration housing shortage, Europe populist conservative surge, UK comedian arrested free speech, JD Vance civilizational suicide UK, Trump Europe Ukraine peace talks, Xi Jinping BRICS Modi meeting, China Tiananmen military parade, Trump Xi Putin Kim social media post

Cattle Industry News Govt. confirms first US human case of New World Screwworm The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the CDC confirmed the first human case in the U.S. of New World screwworm. According to a Reuters report, the individual is a Maryland resident, and they contracted screwworm during a trip to El Salvador. The CDC confirmed the diagnosis on Aug. 4, as did the Maryland Department of Health.  In a statement to Reuters, HHS Spokesman Andrew G. Nixon said "The Risk to public health in the U.S. from this introduction is very low." In recent months, the U.S. government has taken considerable steps in protecting livestock from screwworm. Mid-July, USDA restarted its ban on Mexican livestock imports, and just last week, the agency announced a $750-million sterile fly production facility in Texas to combat the flesh-eating parasite's spread. In Texas alone, USDA estimates a screwworm outbreak could cost the state $1.8 billion in livestock deaths and other costs. Screwworms are parasitic flies whose females lay eggs in wounds on any warm-blooded animal. Once the eggs hatch, hundreds of screwworm larvae use their sharp mouths to burrow through living flesh, eventually killing their host if left untreated. Livestock traders and beef producers have been on edge about the potential for cases in cattle as prices have already hit record highs because the U.S. cattle herd is at its smallest size in seven decades.

The news headlines lately are reminiscent of something out of 1950s sci-fi horror movies, featuring grotesque, mutated animals, radioactive insects, mysterious blobs, and brain-eating parasites. We now have alarming stories about the New World screwworm - a flesh-burrowing larva that can be fatal to animals and devastate cattle herds. Infestation in humans can be "quite painful," with high mortality rates if left untreated. What could be causing these abnormalities in sentient life? Is it natural selection and adaptation due to environmental changes, or are clandestine doctors and scientists tinkering with biology?

Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com shares the news affecting small farmers in America, including a focus on President Trump's “Big Beautiful Bill,” and how it will affect farmers. What should farmers know about his bill? Major cuts to the SNAP program, stricter qualifications for recipients, and passing costs off to the states. Next up, the continued issues of the screwworm and the problems these invasive, flesh eating pests are causing. ICYMI, a screwworm is a type of parasitic fly larva that fees on living flesh of warm blooded animals, including humans. Its name comes from the maggot's appearance as it burrows into a wound, resembling a screw being driven into wood. Th screwworm can cause severe damage and even death if left untreated. The USDA is making plans to better prepare farmers should these pests get into their herds. Moving on, Doug shares a list of foods with the highest amounts of microplastics. They are apples and carrots (most commonly used in juice cleanses). Other foods with higher levels of microplastics include rice, pink Himalayan sea salt, sugar, tea, plant-based nuggets, fish sticks, shrimp, and water. What are farmers doing — or, what should they be doing — to minimize microplastics infiltrating their crops. Website: AmericanFamilyFarmerShow.comSocial Media: @GoodDayNetworks

TL;DR Screwworm Free Future is a new group seeking support to advance work on eradicating the New World Screwworm in South America. The New World Screwworm (C. hominivorax - literally "man-eater") causes extreme suffering to hundreds of millions of wild and domestic animals every year. To date we've held private meetings with government officials, experts from the private sector, academics, and animal advocates. We believe that work on the NWS is valuable and we want to continue our research and begin lobbying. Our analysis suggests we could prevent about 100 animals from experiencing an excruciating death per dollar donated, though this estimate has extreme uncertainty. The screwworm “wall” in Panama has recently been breached, creating both an urgent need and an opportunity to address this problem. We are seeking $15,000 to fund a part-time lead and could absorb up to $100,000 to build a full-time team, which would include a [...] ---Outline:(00:07) TL;DR(02:13) What's the deal with the New World Screwworm?(06:01) What we've learnt so far(08:46) Future plans(12:14) Relevant EA discussions on Screwworms:The original text contained 16 footnotes which were omitted from this narration. --- First published: December 30th, 2024 Source: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/d2HJ3eysBdPoiZBnJ/launching-screwworm-free-future-funding-and-support-request --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.

Kirk once again takes us back to space this week to talk about Schloz's Star. Incredibly, scientists discovered that 70,000 years ago, this star actually passed THROUGH our solar system.  Rachel's tale this week is almost as big and mind boggling but it takes place right here on Earth. She tells us why we are spending millions of dollars to drop 14.7 million screwworms into the rainforest in Panama EVERY WEEK!

What's the deal with birds... is a question Anthony and Jeff often ponder, but it's also the title of a new study released in the Scientific Journal of Research and Reviews - which sounds like a legitimate journal, but is actually a repository of mostly useless garbage. Turns out, there are a lot of predatory journals muddying the waters of scientific reporting. Anthony and Jeff take a look at this disturbing trend and try to figure out a way through it. Then, it's time to get concerned about flesh eating worms! Yep, the US government is actually creating tens of millions of them each week, and you'll be amazing at why. Jeff and Anthony discuss the screwworm, and how it is being battled at the Panama-Columbia border. Hey!
