Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he breaks down today’s biggest stories shaping America and the world.
RFK Jr. Targets Food Dyes and Sugar, Sparks Industry Pushback – HHS Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. pushes to ban petroleum-based food dyes like Red 40 and Yellow 5, citing links to ADHD and cancer. He also declares sugar “a poison,” calling for drastic reductions in American diets. Food companies resist, promising only voluntary changes.
Democrat Judges Block Deportations of Violent Illegal Aliens – In New York and California, courts and lawmakers are protecting illegal immigrants—even convicted criminals—from ICE. A NY judge halted Mayor Eric Adams’ effort to deport Rikers Island felons, and California Democrats push a bill to shield inmates from federal authorities.
Iran Expands Secret Nuclear Tunnels, U.S. Prepares Response – Satellite imagery reveals new subterranean facilities under Iran’s Pickaxe Mountain. With nuclear inspectors denied access, fears grow that Tehran is hiding weapons development. Six U.S. B-2 bombers stand ready as Trump prepares for third-round talks in Oman.
Ukraine Peace Plan Hits a Wall – Zelenskyy rejects Trump’s suggestion to allow diplomatic flexibility over Crimea, stalling the deal. The White House criticizes Kyiv’s “inflammatory statements” and hints at walking away from the peace process altogether.
Rwanda Joins U.S. Congo Minerals Deal – As suspected, Trump’s team is negotiating with Rwanda to withdraw from eastern Congo in exchange for a cut of the $22T in mineral rights, paving the way for U.S. access and pushing out China.
Breakthrough in Cancer Recovery from Sweden – Hyperbaric oxygen treatment dramatically reduces long-term radiation damage in cancer patients. Swedish studies show complete symptom relief lasting at least five years, offering hope alongside recent PTSD healing results from Israel.

Both sides are nuclear-armed, and U.S. diplomats are racing to de-escalate the crisis.
