The Ayatollah’s Go-Bag and the Trump Effect...
When tyrants start phoning Moscow and cargo planes crowd Tehran’s runways, you know something just broke. And it wasn’t just Nicolás Maduro’s front door!
So let me get this straight. Less than 24 hours after Nicolás Maduro got snatched up like a raccoon in a trash can raid, Iran’s 86-year-old Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is reportedly packing his turbans and tapping Moscow on the shoulder for a getaway ride?
You can’t write this stuff. But here we are. The Trump Effect, baby.
Now before the blue-check hysterics start frothing at the mouth, let’s break this down. The reports out of the Times of London suggest Khamenei and his royal brood are gearing up for Plan B: jump ship if the military stops playing fetch. Think about that. The Supreme Leader of Iran might be fleeing to Vladimir Putin like he’s a guest star on the “Dictators Who Duck and Cover” tour.
Let me repeat: IRGC troops reportedly bailing. Cargo planes flying out of Tehran. Moscow on speed dial. And millions of Iranians flooding the streets like they’ve had enough of forty-plus years of state-sanctioned misery. Gee, I wonder what changed.
Oh, right. That would be President Trump, who told the Iranian regime point blank; touch those peaceful protesters and we will respond. Not with a frowny face and a statement from the State Department. With force.
Remember when Biden couldn’t even string a coherent sentence together about Afghanistan while the Taliban played musical chairs with American helicopters? Yeah. Different ballgame now.
And don’t think this is just about Trump’s bravado. This is what happens when a country finally realizes that its government is a Potemkin village; all beard, no bite. The 12-Day War saw Israeli and U.S. forces zip through Iranian airspace like it was open mic night at the Improv. Not even a whimper in response. You could practically hear the mullahs choking on their own propaganda.
And here’s the kicker. Iran’s elite? They’ve already got their kids stashed in Western countries. While the Ayatollah screams “Death to America,” he’s busy wiring tuition payments to Stanford. You cannot make this up.
So what now? Does Khamenei pull an Assad and camp out in a Moscow dacha while his people torch his legacy? Or does he try to ride out the storm and end up dangling like Saddam’s old ceiling decoration?
Either way, here’s what this moment proves.
Strength matters.
Leadership matters.
And when tyrants know there’s a consequence,a real one, not just a limp-wristed “strongly worded letter” they blink.
So call it what you want. Trump Effect. Common Sense Effect. Regime Collapse Bingo.
Just don’t call it a coincidence.



Sunny I have been hearing about this all day, but no one put it into proper perspective like you have with this analysis.
...and isn't ironic, from Paris the first one came, and to Moscow the last one will go.
A free Iran in which the youth of that nation (which is the vast majority of them due to the Iraq-Iran war) will have the ability to create a new Iranian government...and what will that look like, das ist die frage?

The dominoes are falling. Bibi and Trump are changing the world order. The greatest partnership since Reagan/Thatcher and Roosevelt/Churchill. The axis of evil is collapsing before our eyes.
