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, Bryan covers the Federal Reserve's rate cut and what it means for Trump's economy, the looming risks of the AI revolution, a power struggle inside the FBI and U.S. intelligence community, and the explosive fallout from Trump's nuclear weapons announcement during his summit with China's Xi Jinping.
The Fed Cuts Rates — and Markets Panic:
The Federal Reserve lowered interest rates by a quarter point as expected, but markets tanked when Chairman Jerome Powell signaled no further cuts this year. Bryan warns that the Fed may be playing politics against Trump and that the slowdown — fueled by AI-driven job losses — could spark a populist backlash before next year's midterms.
The AI Revolution and a New Working Class Crisis:
Major companies like Amazon are slashing tens of thousands of white-collar jobs as AI automation takes hold. Bryan compares today's upheaval to the Industrial Revolution, predicting decades of struggle for young workers and a coming rise in left-wing populism if the White House fails to address economic pain.
FBI vs. Intel Community Turf War:
FBI Director Kash Patel and Intel Chief Tulsi Gabbard are battling over who controls America's counterintelligence mission — the same bureaucratic fight that contributed to 9/11. Bryan urges listeners to back a new congressional bill centralizing the mission under one agency before disaster strikes again.
Trump and Xi — A Nuclear Gamble:
During his summit with China's President Xi, Trump announced that the U.S. will resume nuclear weapons testing for the first time since 1992. China's reaction was icy, though both sides reaffirmed trade and fentanyl agreements. Meanwhile, Malaysia already broke part of its rare earth deal with Washington, proving how fragile global cooperation remains.
The Netherlands and a Warning for Trump:
Populist Dutch leader Geert Wilders lost power after failing to deliver economic results, offering what Bryan calls "a cautionary tale for the GOP." He argues Republicans must scrap the Senate filibuster and act decisively on jobs and immigration before their working-class base walks away.
