Last night’s story has become even bigger.
What started as a dispute over a controversial report from Iran’s Mehr News Agency has evolved into something far more significant: a public power struggle inside the Islamic Republic itself.
After President Donald Trump publicly rejected reports surrounding a supposed memorandum of understanding (MOU) and suggested that a deal with Iran may be closer than many realize, shockwaves continued to spread through Tehran. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi’s response only intensified the controversy, while hardline factions connected to the IRGC, state media, and ideological networks have become increasingly aggressive in their attacks.
Tonight’s livestream is Part 2 of our deep dive into the growing panic inside the regime.
We’ll examine the latest developments, the escalating backlash against negotiators, the role of figures such as Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf and Ahmad Vahidi, and what these internal conflicts reveal about the true state of the Islamic Republic.
Why are regime insiders suddenly fighting each other in public?
Why are hardliners becoming increasingly desperate?
What does this tell us about the future of negotiations, the stability of the regime, and the growing disconnect between Tehran’s ruling elite and the Iranian people?
Most Western media coverage continues to focus exclusively on Washington and diplomacy. Tonight we’ll focus on the story behind the story: the internal political warfare taking place inside Tehran itself.
As always, I’ll provide analysis from the perspective of someone who understands Iranian politics, the Islamic Republic’s power structure, and the dynamics that mainstream outlets often overlook.
