In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down the arrest of a New York woman who converted to Islam and plotted a mass-casualty terror attack on the state capitol in Albany. Bryan covers a new federal warning that Iranian-linked hackers are using AI to target the industrial control systems running America's power plants, hospitals, and food supply, Google's purchase of bankrupt Spirit Airlines' data to train its AI, and growing bipartisan backlash against AI data centers ahead of the midterms. He also breaks down Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed comparing himself to Jesus Christ. Plus, Bryan covers a shelved Ukrainian plan for a Pearl Harbor-style AI drone swarm attack on a Moscow airport, Iran's threats to strike US and European military bases in retaliation for the naval blockade, North Korea's missile barrage and IT-worker infiltration scheme targeting US companies, and new data showing American alcohol consumption has hit a historic low.
