Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he breaks down today’s biggest stories shaping America and the world.
Liberation Day: Part II – Trump’s Tariff Strategy Tightens – As the 10%–104% global tariffs take effect, nations across Asia bend to U.S. pressure. Vietnam, Indonesia, and others rush to offer trade concessions, while Trump warns Europe’s pharmaceutical sector that it’s next.
Supreme Court Win Allows Trump to Continue Federal Workforce Cuts – The Court blocks a lower judge’s ruling that tried to reinstate fired workers. The broader legal fight continues, but for now, Trump’s plan to reduce the federal bureaucracy proceeds.
Coal Comeback: Trump Revives U.S. Mining, Ukraine Cheers – New executive orders push federal coal expansion, with unexpected support from Ukraine, whose steel industry relies on U.S. coal. Environmentalists rage, but Trump calls it essential for reindustrialization.
Trump Floats Tax Hike on Millionaires to Fund Working-Class Relief – The White House signals support for raising the top income tax rate to 39.6% to pay for tax cuts on tips and overtime. A test of loyalty looms in Congress as traditional Republicans bristle.
Drone Strikes on Mexican Cartels? CIA and Pentagon Poised – U.S. officials weigh lethal strikes against cartel targets. Trump may consult Mexico’s president, but is unlikely to hesitate if opportunity strikes.
Tin, Terror, and Trump’s 2x4 Diplomacy – In the Congo, Trump pressures Rwanda to back off from a key U.S.-owned tin mine. In Panama, migrant crossings plunge 99% from Biden-era highs, defying global “expert” predictions.
Peace or War? Trump’s Iran Deadline Nears – With peace talks set for Oman and B-2 bombers still striking Houthi targets, the clock ticks toward a potential military showdown in May.
