In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, we cover new details on Charlie Kirk's assassination, major economic signals ahead of a Fed decision, Senate Republicans' “nuclear option” on confirmations, Trump's crackdown on drug ads, immigration fallout with South Korea, and global headlines from Sweden, Germany, and North Korea. Quick hits to set your radar for the weekend. Charlie Kirk's Final Flight and Killer Hunt: VP JD Vance escorted Kirk's body home on Air Force Two, calling him “a true friend” and vowing, “You ran a good race, my friend. We've got it from here.” Investigators recovered a Mauser rifle and cartridges allegedly marked with Antifa and transgender slogans. The assassin, still at large, is described as a man in his mid-20s. Economic Warning Lights: Producer inflation drops as businesses eat tariff costs, but jobless claims hit a four-year high. Analysts expect a quarter- to half-point Fed rate cut next week. Senate GOP Fast-Tracks Trump Nominees: Republicans changed rules to bypass Democrat obstruction, clearing the way for 150 stalled executive branch picks. Judicial nominees remain vulnerable to Democrat blockades. Trump Targets Big Pharma Ads: An executive order ends the 1997 loophole allowing short TV drug ads. Pharma may face five-minute disclosures, threatening billions in ad revenue for networks like CNN and Fox. Immigration Fallout with South Korea: Hyundai's Korean workers arrested in Georgia say they warned bosses their visas were illegal. Seoul warns investment may cool without faster visa reform, while Trump explores expedited paths for specialized labor. Sweden's Child Hitmen and Migrant Payoffs: Gangs recruit boys as young as 12 to kill, exploiting loopholes in juvenile law. Sweden will lower prosecution age and pay $34K per migrant to return home. Germany's Migrant Dilemma: Only 1,300 of 1 million Syrian migrants accepted $1,500 to leave. Meanwhile, 80,000 a year gain citizenship, fueling AfD's rise. North Korea Intrigue and U.S. Ops: Kim Jong Un parades his 12-year-old daughter as heir, though his son may be hidden abroad. A failed SEAL Team 6 mission six years ago revealed how close the U.S. came to planting a spy device inside North Korea.

Michael speaks with New York Times journalist and Pulitzer Prize winner Dave Philipps about a shocking top-secret SEAL Team 6 mission in North Korea that went fatally off-course. What started as a high-stakes intelligence op to spy on Kim Jong Un quickly escalated into deadly chaos — and could have derailed nuclear negotiations. Hear the behind-the-scenes details and the journalistic debate over whether the public should ever know. Original air date 8 September 2025.
What drives someone to board a helicopter on what might be a one-way mission to take down the world's most wanted terrorist? In this gripping conversation with Navy SEAL Rob O'Neill, we dive deep into the mind of the man who killed Osama bin Laden and explore the extraordinary journey that led him there.Rob's story begins unexpectedly in Butte, Montana, where a chance encounter with a Navy recruiter – and the absence of the Marine recruiter he'd actually come to see – set him on a path that would ultimately change history. With disarming honesty and unexpected humor, he reveals how he joined the Navy without even knowing how to swim properly, a decision that would lead him through the world's most grueling military training and eventually to SEAL Team 6.The psychological framework that carried Rob through countless missions resonates far beyond military applications. "Long-term goals are achieved through short-term goals," he explains, breaking down how SEALs compartmentalize seemingly impossible challenges. His philosophy on quitting – "Never quit right now. That's emotion. Quit tomorrow" – offers profound wisdom for anyone facing adversity.The heart of our conversation centers on the bin Laden raid – the 90-minute helicopter flight into Pakistan, the crash landing that threatened to derail the mission, and those fateful moments face-to-face with America's most notorious enemy. Rob's vivid recounting places you right beside him in that compound, experiencing the controlled chaos and split-second decisions that changed history.What stays with you longest isn't the tactical details, but the humanity behind the mission. These weren't supermen, but ordinary Americans with extraordinary training, willing to sacrifice everything not for glory, but for the victims of 9/11 who never chose to be in the fight. As Rob poignantly reflects, "We're going for the single mom who jumped to her death out of a skyscraper because that's a better alternative than whatever was happening at 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit."Listen now to hear one of the most consequential military operations in American history told by the man who lived it. Then ask yourself: What challenges in your own life might benefit from a SEAL's mindset?The Try That in a Small Town Podcast is powered by e|spaces!

Jon Herold and Chris Paul fight through hotel Wi-Fi and post-golf exhaustion to tackle a whirlwind of stories. They dive into Mike Johnson's claim that Trump once acted as an FBI informant against Epstein, parsing out the difference between Epstein's real crimes and the “Epstein files hoax” aimed at smearing Trump. The conversation turns to John Durham, with bizarre claims from ex-CIA official Suzanne Miller that she was secretly charged with “insurrection”, a story with no legal record but plenty of intrigue. From there, the hosts dissect a New York Times report of a failed 2019 SEAL Team 6 mission in North Korea, questioning its plausibility and timing in relation to Trump's peace talks with Kim Jong Un. They wrap with election battles in Georgia, MTG's push for federal investigations into Fulton County, and Trump's narrative moves on foreign leaders and sovereign alliances. Blending humor, speculation, and sharp analysis, this episode threads lawfare, geopolitics, and psyops into the ongoing devolution narrative.
Mary Bruce has the latest on the weak jobs reports, with U.S. employers adding just 22,000 jobs in August as unemployment rises; Pierre Thomas has reports on DHS detaining hundreds of South Korean nationals during a raid on a Georgia Hyundai plant, marking the latest in the Trump administration's deportation efforts; Martha Raddatz has details on The New York Times reporting that during nuclear negotiations between Pres. Trump and Kim Jong Un in 2019, SEAL Team 6 snuck onto North Korea's shores to spy on the world leader – but the mission failed and unarmed civilians were reportedly killed; and more on tonight's broadcast of World News Tonight with David Muir.

In this episode of Around the House with Eric G, we sit down with Tom Kubiniec, CEO of SecureIt Tactical and one of the nation's leading experts on gun safety, firearm storage, and home security. With decades of experience designing military armories for elite units like the Navy SEALs, Tom brings his unique perspective to civilian gun owners who want to protect their families while maintaining secure and responsible firearm access.Tom challenges the traditional gun safe industry, pointing out why most safes are little more than “metal boxes” that don't deliver true firearm security. Instead, he introduces the innovative idea of decentralized storage—strategically placing fast-access safes throughout the home so your firearms are both secure and accessible when needed.Key topics we cover include:Why most gun safes fail to provide real security or fire protection.How decentralized firearm storage increases safety and accessibility.Practical home security tips like motion-sensor lighting and making your home less attractive to burglars.The dangers of hidden firearms in homes with children—and safer alternatives for responsible gun owners.Why secure firearm access is just as important as locking things away.Whether you're a long-time gun owner or just someone interested in home safety, this episode offers valuable insights that go far beyond the basics of locking up firearms. Tom's mix of practical advice, humor, and straight talk makes this a must-listen for anyone serious about responsible gun ownership and home security.

Brendan Paul, a former Syracuse basketball player turned personal assistant to Sean Combs from late 2022 to March 2024, testified under immunity that his duties included purchasing cocaine, ketamine, ecstasy, marijuana, and other substances for Combs, as well as preparing hotel rooms for Combs's so‑called “wild king nights” or “freak‑offs.” He described going days without sleep, relying on Adderall and occasional cocaine use to cope, and even sampling a pink-drug blend ("tusi") to demonstrate loyalty. Paul recounted incidents where he was reprimanded—at times fired—for minor mistakes like forgetting a Gucci fanny pack loaded with drugs. He clarified that he was not a drug mule, maintaining he transported only small amounts for Combs's personal use, and that he ultimately assisted in the cleanup of these drug-fueled sex parties.On cross‑examination, Paul emphasized that procuring drugs was a minor aspect of his role and insisted that the narcotics were used solely by Combs. He recounted how he accidentally carried cocaine through a Miami airport—picked up during cleaning Combs's hotel room—and was arrested but later had charges dropped after completing a diversion program, attributing his silence to loyalty. Paul described Combs's expectations that his staff operate with “militant” discipline, likening them to "SEAL Team 6." He testified that Combs became particularly “extremely creative” when under the influence, using charts, messages, and communications about these events as part of the prosecution's racketeering-sex trafficking case.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:(1) Live updates: Sean ‘Diddy' Combs trial coverage | CNN

Taylor Cavanaugh's journey is unlike anything you've heard. As a teenager with a criminal record, no one expected him to make it far—let alone become a Navy SEAL. But against all odds, Taylor completed BUD/S and joined SEAL Team 7. Just when it seemed like his life had turned around, legal trouble ended his military career. After being kicked out of the SEALs, Taylor spiraled into addiction and depression, eventually hitting rock bottom. That's when he made a radical decision: to join the French Foreign Legion. In this interview, Taylor opens up about his fight for redemption, what it really takes to become a SEAL, and how he rebuilt his life from the ground up. #NavySEAL #FrenchForeignLegion #AddictionRecovery #TrueStory #RedemptionArc #VeteranInterview #LockedInWithIanBick #militaryjourney Connect with Taylor Cavanaugh: Website: www.taylorcavanaugh.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tcavofficial?

Fire in the gut. (14:06) • We had guys tried to fake hypothermia during BUDS, till they broke the thermometer out, and check the dudes right in front of all of us. (25:37) • We went out for surf torture. The waves were so big, and there was such a shore break, it picked us all up, slammed the whole class. One guy was like a lawn dart – broke his neck. (26:29) • They put the [hypothermia] guy up on the wall, pulled his pants down, took the core temperature thermometer – right in front of God and everybody. [It was rectal] They need to know what your core is – to see if you're actually hyporthermal. (27:32) • [Marcus] I've seen guys quit over trying to put a dive sock on. (32:38) • When you first get out of the military, you're too close to it to think you're a veteran. (37:47) • I've always tried to help veterans. (39:38) • The impression is that it's a Naval Special Warfare Museum with Michael {Murphy's] name on it. (47:33) • I'm so tired of people pushing down awesomeness. Everybody doesn't have to be the same. (49:52) • The [wheelchair bound] kid said he wanted to do the Michael Murphy run around the lake. So, I said I'll push you. I didn't realize how heavy he was. I thought Long Island was kinda flat. It's not. I'm sweating. It's 100 degrees. I'm terrified that I'm gonna lose him down a hill.

In this short micro dose episode, we explore the specialized qualities required for different SEAL Team missions. Our guest, retired Navy SEAL Commander Rich Diviney, shares his fascination with the unique attributes needed for high-stakes operations like combat diving and hostage rescue—emphasizing how patience, adaptability, and mental agility are mission-critical. Listen to full episode here: https://pod.fo/e/28e08fDrawing from hundreds of real-world missions in Iraq and Afghanistan, Rich unpacks the true purpose behind SEAL training—not to teach specific skills, but to reveal the core attributes required to perform under extreme pressure. Whether underwater for long durations or making life-or-death decisions in seconds, SEALs succeed not just because of what they know, but because of who they are.Rich's insights extend beyond the military. He shows how this same philosophy—prioritizing attributes over skills—can transform leadership and team performance in any environment.Key Takeaways:Different SEAL missions require distinct personal qualities.Training is designed to reveal these attributes, not just build skills.The best teams are built on character, not credentials.This mindset applies equally in business and leadership.Specific Missions in the SEAL Teams Require Specific QualitiesSuccess in SEAL missions depends on the unique attributes of each team member—not just their technical skills. This distinction is critical for maintaining adaptability in dynamic, high-risk environments.Attributes Over SkillsEach mission demands specific traits. Combat diving requires deep patience; hostage rescue calls for rapid decision-making and agility. Someone who thrives in slow, methodical tasks might falter in a high-speed crisis—but they'd excel when endurance and calm are key. Recognizing these differences is central to building the right team for the mission.Real-World ExamplesRich Diviney shares a story from 2010, reflecting on his experiences in Iraq and Afghanistan. SEAL training includes grueling exercises—carrying boats, lifting logs—not because those skills are directly used in combat, but because they create pressure. The goal isn't just physical fitness—it's to surface traits like grit, teamwork, composure, and resilience.The Story of the Non-SwimmerRich tells the story of a SEAL candidate who couldn't swim. On the swim test, he jumped in, sank to the bottom, and walked across the pool. When asked what happened, he admitted he didn't know how to swim. But the instructor didn't dismiss him. Instead, recognizing the young man's determination and resolve, he said, “That's okay—we can teach you how to swim.”That moment illustrates a core principle: if someone has the right attributes—grit, tenacity, humility—you can teach them the technical parts. But the reverse isn't always true.From Military to BusinessAfter retiring, Rich noticed that organizations often overvalue hard skills while struggling to define or develop the deeper qualities that drive performance. Terms like “soft skills” don't do justice to traits like emotional control, adaptability, and drive. Focusing on attributes gives companies a more accurate view of who will thrive, grow, and lead effectively.ConclusionThe highest-performing SEAL teams aren't built on resumes. They're built on character. That same principle holds true in every high-performance setting. Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

Send us a textMatt Cubbler is back—and this time, it's personal. If you thought the first episode blew the lid off the Job Price case, buckle the hell up. In this scorched-earth sequel, the Ones Ready crew dives headfirst into the why behind the mysterious death of SEAL Team 4 Commander Job Price. Spoiler alert: the official “suicide” story doesn't just have holes—it's a full-blown cover-up crater.Cubbler, a 30-year law enforcement veteran and the man who cracked open the case, lays out a damning forensic, contextual, and moral case that screams murder. From scrubbed crime scenes and missing money to suppressed pistols and suppressed truths, this is a masterclass in how to weaponize silence, loyalty, and bureaucracy to erase a man.We're talking forged narratives, suppressed evidence, and a command culture that would rather protect the brotherhood than admit a SEAL commander might've been executed by his own men. If this episode doesn't rattle your faith in the system, check your pulse—or your security clearance.
Sure this sounds like it's coming direct from scripture (it is), as these are some of the exact healing miracles Jesus himself is renowned performed. What we can tell you is there's more...MUCH more...in this episode. Further, there's not a single invasive technology required for these miracles you'll see and hear discussed. In fact, this is water derived straight from the book of Genesis, here to heal God's children...already, 8 clinical studies have been completed to prove 100% of the people have astounding results. (Even better - big Pharma can't touch it, plus it's even blessed by RFK Jr's MAHA). This show is nothing short of spectacular.
Just when I get to the point where I can't take it anymore, and I'm about to lose it. I'm about to lose it all. Blow it all up. I have one of my biggest breakthroughs. I have to force myself to make changes when things are getting really hard on me. That's a stress-test. Let's give the perspective of God looking down on you. You're in a dark room, tied to a chair with a bag over your head. You hear yelling. You're getting hit in the head. You're being tortured and beaten. They're trying to get your secrets. When all of a sudden, the Seal Team starts busting through the door to get you out. That's you when you're going through a strength test. At some point, God is going to pull you out of it. This is when you go to the next level. Without moments of torture and darkness, you'll never have some of your biggest breakthroughs in life that elevate your view of it. Stay focused. Keep battling.

This week on Danger Close, Jack Carr is joined by two pivotal figures behind the hit Amazon Prime Video series THE TERMINAL LIST: former Navy SEAL Jared Shaw and Executive Producer and Showrunner, David DiGilio.Jared Shaw, a longtime friend and SEAL teammate of Jack's, played a crucial role in bringing THE TERMINAL LIST to life — handing the manuscript to Chris Pratt before the book was even published. That single act set the project in motion and laid the foundation for what would become a powerhouse creative team.David DiGilio entered the story after reading the novel and immediately connecting with its authenticity, psychological complexity, and emotional depth. As showrunner, he helped shape the tone, structure, and cinematic vision of the series alongside director Antoine Fuqua and star Chris Pratt.Jared came on board as a technical advisor and producer and was later cast as “Boozer,” training alongside fellow SEALs and contributing to the show's realism, tactical authenticity, and emotional weight. David guided the production through the unique challenges of the COVID era, with writers' rooms, casting, and collaboration taking place entirely over Zoom.Together, Jared and David worked closely with Jack at every stage — from script development and character arcs to tunnel fight choreography and post-production editing. Their combined efforts helped ensure that The Terminal List remained grounded in truth, honoring the brotherhood and sacrifices of those who serve.This episode pulls back the curtain on how a bond forged in the SEAL Teams — and a shared commitment to authentic storytelling — helped create one of the most compelling and accurate military thrillers ever brought to screen.FOLLOW DAVIDInstagram: @digiliofilmsFOLLOW JACKInstagram: @JackCarrUSA X: @JackCarrUSAFacebook: @JackCarr YouTube: @JackCarrUSASPONSORSCRY HAVOC – A Tom Reece Thriller https://www.officialjackcarr.com/books/cry-havoc/Bravo Company Manufacturing - BCM Stock MOD3:https://bravocompanyusa.com/bcm-stock-mod-3-black/ and on Instagram @BravoCompanyUSATHE SIGs of Jack Carr:Visit https://www.sigsauer.com/ and on Instagram @sigsauerinc Jack Carr Gear: Explore the gear here https://jackcarr.co/gear

But in true warrior fashion, he forged a new path—launching 'Be Free Craft Ice Cream' in 2022, a small-batch, veteran-owned ice cream brand based in Virginia Beach. Each flavor is a tribute to his military past, blending boldness and creativity like only a seasoned operator could.

Jim Hawes, a Navy SEAL and CIA paramilitary officer, whose covert maritime missions in the 1960s helped shape the early fight against communism in Vietnam and Africa.In 1964, Jim became the first SEAL Team 2 officer permanently assigned to MACV-SOG in Vietnam, where he led maritime operations into North Vietnam - operations initially run by the CIA and unknown to most outside a tight circle of operatives. From a remote base outside Da Nang, Jim conducted coastal raids and intelligence-gathering missions behind enemy lines. These formative missions, including involvement in what was to become known as the Gulf of Tonkin incident, laid the groundwork for the Navy's involvement in the larger SOG effort. Following Vietnam, Jim brought his maritime expertise to Africa, joining the CIA's paramilitary ranks during the height of the Cold War. On Lake Tanganyika, he helped run one of the most successful clandestine operations in Agency history - intercepting weapons, disrupting communist movements, and tracking Che Guevara's insurgency in the Congo.Jim is the author of Cold War Navy SEAL: My Story of Che Guevara, War in the Congo, and the Communist Threat in Africa. Today, six decades after BUD/S, he lives in Africa - now telling the stories that shaped a generation.FOLLOW JACKInstagram: @JackCarrUSA X: @JackCarrUSAFacebook: @JackCarr YouTube: @JackCarrUSASPONSORSCRY HAVOC – A Tom Reece Thriller https://www.officialjackcarr.com/books/cry-havoc/Bravo Company Manufacturing - BCM Stock MOD3:https://bravocompanyusa.com/bcm-stock-mod-3-black/ and on Instagram @BravoCompanyUSATHE SIGs of Jack Carr:Visit https://www.sigsauer.com/ and on Instagram @sigsauerinc Jack Carr Gear: Explore the gear here https://jackcarr.co/gear
