March 11th, 2026: Coup Inside Iran? The IRGC Seizes Power In Tehran & France Deploys Warships To Middle East

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: Iran’s leadership may survive the current war, but the balance of power inside Tehran could be shifting. We take a closer look at how the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps may be using this moment to tighten its grip on the regime—potentially accelerating a long-running evolution toward an IRGC-dominated state. French President Emmanuel Macron orders a major naval deployment to the Middle East, sending ten warships to the region to reinforce France’s presence and potentially escort commercial shipping through the increasingly tense Strait of Hormuz. China unexpectedly suspends its daily military flights near Taiwan, leaving the skies around the island strangely quiet and raising new questions about what Beijing may be planning next. In today’s Back of the Brief — investigators uncover new evidence in the attempted bombing during a New York City protest, as the FBI searches a Pennsylvania storage unit tied to what authorities say was an ISIS-inspired plot.
