    Astonishing scenes as protests erupt in Tehran tonight. They chant that Iran’s leaders are the enemy, not the US. And, “Soleimani was a killer.” The fallout from his assassination continues to take unexpected turnshttps://twitter.com/alinejadmasih/status/1216047712476565504?s=21 …

    Protests continue in Tehran. Protesters are chanting many of the same slogans from #IranProtests of November 2019 They're chanting: "The regime told us our enemy is the US. But actually, our enemy is right here" [in reference to the regime itself]. pic.twitter.com/OjoMw2PMI2

        Iran is brittle and this assassination and its various outcomes may yet constitute a tipping point for the domestic political influence of the IRGC.
