Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Radar Brief episode of The Wright Report, Bryan shares urgent developments from the Strait of Hormuz as President Trump weighs a new Iranian peace proposal while the Pentagon prepares a major operation to help guide trapped commercial ships safely out of the Persian Gulf.

He explains how the U.S. military plans to provide air cover, surveillance, and defensive support for hundreds of merchant vessels without offering full armed escorts, even as Iran's IRGC warns that the move violates the ceasefire and threatens retaliation unless ships continue paying Tehran's reported $2 million toll. Bryan warns this standoff could turn "spicy" very quickly as U.S. naval operations begin immediately.

Plus, Bryan asks listeners to pray for two missing U.S. soldiers in Morocco, previews upcoming reporting on the CIA's infamous MK Ultra mind control program as newly declassified documents head to Congress, and highlights important medical news from Finland suggesting that one of the most common knee surgeries may do more harm than good. He also shares an update from Eastern Oregon, where he is filming a special Fourth of July mini-documentary celebrating America's 250th birthday and the enduring goodness of small-town America.
