Political cartoonist Ted Rall and CIA whistleblower John Kiriakou deprogram you from mainstream media every weekday at 9 AM EST.

Today we discuss:

• Trump TACOs on Iran. After demanding “unconditional surrender” and then extending a deadline to today before bombing Iran’s power plants, the President—spooked by roiling financial markets—has extended the deadline again, by another 10 days, to April 6th—at the request of Iran, he claims.

• Trump TACOs on the partial government shutdown: After the President said he would sign an emergency executive order to pay TSA, the Republican-controlled Senate passes Homeland Security funding, with no money for immigration enforcement.

• Trumpmanbashi: The President becomes the first to have his signature on US paper currency.
