Measles-26 | DeProgram with Ted Rall and John Kiriakou

Author: Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas February 10, 2026 Duration: 1:00:04

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

Today we discuss:

• Will a raging measles outbreak in South Carolina, which has infected more than 900 people and become the largest U.S. outbreak in recent history, become another pandemic?

Tech is messing with the search for Nancy Guthrie: Before AI, proof of life could be established by having a hostage take a picture holding a newspaper or talking on the phone. Now you can mimic someone's voice or image in photos, videos and audio, known as “deepfakes.” You can also devise fake documents, like passports.

• A U.S. immigration court terminated the Trump administration's attempt to deport Tufts University student and pro-Palestinian activist Rümeysa Öztürk, a Ph.D. student from Turkey, for her essay criticizing Israel. Meanwhile, ICE is arousing the ire of judges across the country for willfully defying their orders.
