Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he breaks down today’s biggest stories shaping America and the world.

Trump Approves Iran Attack Plan While Israel Intensifies Bombing
President Trump has privately approved an attack plan for Iran, likely targeting the Fordow nuclear site, though he is delaying execution in hopes of a last-minute peace deal. Meanwhile, Israeli airstrikes continue throughout Tehran, including the destruction of Iran’s internal police headquarters. The UN reports that Iran's highly enriched uranium is missing following the bombings, raising fears of further escalation or a nuclear breakout.

Rwanda and Congo Peace Deal Secured Through U.S. Mediation
Decades of conflict between Rwanda and the Congo may finally end with a peace agreement set to be signed in Washington, D.C., on June 27. The deal, brokered with help from President Trump, could shift access to critical minerals like cobalt and rare earths away from China and into U.S.-aligned hands.

Mineral Wars Continue: U.S. Scrambles for Antimony Supplies
Amid a growing battery and defense crisis, China has cut exports of antimony, a critical metal used in everything from missiles to solar panels. The U.S. is now trying to revive an old mine in Idaho that supplied antimony during World War II. Industry officials are calling it a national emergency.

Flesh-Eating Screwworm Threatens U.S. Cattle Industry
A parasitic fly larva known as the screwworm is advancing from Panama into Mexico, endangering America’s already strained beef supply. The Trump administration has launched a major containment effort, including building sterile fly facilities in Texas and Mexico to stop the spread.

Supreme Court Upholds Tennessee Ban on Transgender Procedures for Minors
The Court rules 6–3 in favor of Tennessee’s law banning gender-related medical treatments for children. Chief Justice Roberts writes that the law protects minors based on age, not sex, and criticizes the “expert class” for ideological bias. The ruling puts decisions about such treatments in the hands of voters and state legislatures, not judges or federal regulators.
