Description: Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) 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 explains why the White House believes Democrat Party fraud may decide the 2026 midterms, breaks down Trump's push to cap credit card interest rates, unpacks the legal showdown with Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, and connects fast-moving global developments in Venezuela, China, Mexico, Taiwan, and Iran. The White House's Midterm Strategy: Follow the Fraud: The Trump administration plans to center the midterms on massive fraud in Democrat run states, starting with Minnesota but expanding to New York, Maine, Massachusetts, and California. Investigations reveal Medicaid, daycare, food stamp, and nonprofit fraud involving migrants, with billions in taxpayer dollars potentially sent overseas or recycled into political donations. Bryan argues the scope could shock voters across party lines, especially as Democrats openly admit the fraud while trying to delay investigations through lawsuits. Trump Orders Credit Card Rate Cap: President Trump ordered banks to lower credit card interest rates to no more than 10 percent, down from averages above 20 percent. Banks warn the move could eliminate credit access for risky borrowers, while Trump argues banks abused consumers and can remain profitable at lower rates. Bryan presents the facts and competing arguments, noting the policy is aimed squarely at easing middle-class frustration ahead of the midterms. Legal War With the Federal Reserve: Fed Chair Jerome Powell confirmed he is under criminal investigation for allegedly lying to Congress about a $2.5 billion renovation of Fed headquarters. Powell claims the probe is politically motivated, while Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent privately warned Trump that prosecuting Powell could spook markets and raise borrowing costs. So far, markets remain calm, but Bryan flags this as a major political and economic risk. Trump Tightens the Squeeze Globally: Trump's Venezuela operation continues to ripple worldwide. China is now paying higher prices for Canadian oil after losing access to cheap Venezuelan crude. Russia has dared the U.S. to seize openly flagged Russian oil tankers, escalating the ghost fleet standoff. Mexico avoided pressure to cut oil to Cuba, likely in exchange for deeper cooperation against cartels that are now using fiber optic drones along the border. Taiwan and Iran Watch Closely: Chinese military planners are studying Trump's Venezuela "snatch and grab" operation as a possible model for Taiwan, although internal purges are slowing Beijing's readiness. Meanwhile, Trump announced new 25 percent tariffs on countries that trade with Iran, primarily targeting China. As protests rage across Iran, Trump is weighing whether to strike regime forces responsible for the crackdown, with a decision expected soon.
