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 a potential new Pentagon strike force for domestic unrest, the rise of socialism in New York City, surprising economic moves from the White House, and a breakthrough AI cancer detection tool.

Pentagon Considers Rapid Reaction Force:
The Trump administration is weighing the creation of a 600-troop rapid deployment unit to respond to civil unrest within one hour. With political investigations, mass deportations, and federal troop deployments in cities like Washington DC, Chicago, and Los Angeles, Bryan examines the combustible political environment driving this proposal.

Socialist Mayoral Candidate Leads in New York City:
Zohran Mamdani dominates the polls in the Big Apple with promises of free housing, transit, and food through government-run grocery stores. Bryan looks at a failed Missouri experiment with a similar grocery store model as a cautionary tale for New York voters.

Good News on Inflation and Controversial Export Tax on Chips:
July’s inflation numbers came in lower than expected, sparking calls for an interest rate cut. At the same time, President Trump has introduced a 15 percent export tax on computer chips sold to China by Nvidia and AMD. Supporters call it innovative, but critics warn it may be unconstitutional under Article One of the U.S. Constitution.

AI Detects Throat Cancer from Voice Recordings:
Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have developed an AI tool capable of detecting throat cancer in men using only voice recordings. While the discovery offers hope for early detection, researchers found no significant results for women, highlighting the need for further study.

"And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32
