Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In today’s episode, we cover
Crime Stats Drop but Cops Pay the Price
New data shows a nationwide decline in violent and property crimes, and the White House is claiming credit. But unreported crimes may tell a different story, and police deaths and assaults are surging. Bryan unpacks the politics, the exceptions like Washington DC and Boston, and the deeper trends.
Court Forces Border Agents to Allow Asylum Seekers
A federal appeals court has ordered the Trump administration to allow certain migrants into the country under asylum laws. Border agents are now instructed to detain but not deport. Bryan explains how this decision could reignite legal challenges and weaken the administration’s immigration crackdown.
House Subpoenas Clintons and DOJ Over Epstein
Congressional investigators have subpoenaed Bill and Hillary Clinton, James Comey, Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, and others in a renewed probe of Jeffrey Epstein’s network. But Alex Acosta—the prosecutor who gave Epstein his 2008 sweetheart deal—was left off the list. Bryan breaks down what that might mean.
Listener Questions Return
Bryan responds to Richard, who challenges his support for El Salvador’s President Bukele. He explores the tradeoffs of partnering with strongmen in the immigration fight. Eric from Southern California asks whether Bryan’s podcast is any different from AI, leading to a philosophical take on human thinking and machine learning. And Jack from Arkansas wants to know how Bryan detected surveillance in New York. Bryan shares real-life spycraft stories, including one involving a man he nicknamed “Elmer Fudd.”
