It's Wednesday, the 8th of April.

Now, if you're in the U.S., well, that means you've got one week until tax day.

Sorry about that.

But regardless, welcome to the President's Daily Brief.

I'm Mike Baker.

Your eyes and ears on the world stage.

All right.

Let's get briefed.

First up, just hours before the Trump-imposed deadline for Iran, President Trump announced he's extending that deadline by two weeks, claiming that an agreement is in the works with the Iranian regime.

So we've gone from possibly destroying an entire civilization to a possible negotiated ceasefire agreement in the space of a day.

I'll have the details.

Later in the show, Ukraine claims it has new intelligence, indicating that Russia is helping to give Iran a battlefield edge, providing satellite surveillance and cyber capabilities to refine strikes across the Middle East.

Plus, just in case you needed yet another example of just how feckless the United Nations is...

Russia and China block an effort in the UN to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

And in today's Back of the Brief, the CIA reportedly turned to cutting-edge technology to recover a downed airman in Iran using a classified system that can track the electromagnetic signature of a heartbeat.

Now, we would not know about this, except that people supposedly briefed on the program apparently can't keep their yaps shut.
