The Economist is reporting on a new crop of leaders consolidating power in Iran: The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The Economist writes the IRGC is “battle-hardened and results-driven, they are focused on security and repression and are turning the theocratic foundations of the Islamic republic into a military dictatorship.” The Morning Joe panel discusses this latest development and what it means for President Trump’s war in Iran, and the progress of talks to bring it to an end and reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
