In this Thursday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down the Trump Administration's new $70,000 fee on foreign students using the OPT visa program, a move meant to stop US employers from sidelining American graduates for cheaper foreign labor. Bryan covers Anduril Industries' new $6.6 billion Maryland shipyard that will build US submarine parts and thousands of jobs, a classified NASA effort to bring the retired SR-71 spy plane back into service, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio's blunt warning in Athens that Europe faces "civilizational erasure" as US troops prepare to pivot from Europe toward Latin America. Plus, Bryan covers the rising cost of the Iran war, including a doubling of destroyed aircraft and a wave of trucking company bankruptcies tied to diesel prices, along with a Supreme Court case over a transgender wrestler accused of sexually assaulting a female competitor and new Stanford research on ibogaine for treating PTSD in veterans.
