Exiled prince warns Iranian military of 'final chance' to stand up to the regime
Print Close By Rachel Wolf, Danielle Wallace Published June 24, 2025 Exiled Iranian Prince Reza Pahlavi is pushing for regime change in Tehran, asserting that the regime is "near collapse." In a post on X, Pahlavi encouraged the people of Iran to rise up and warned military personnel that this is their "final chance" to stand with the public against the regime. "To the military—as you're given orders to lash out at the people—stand down. This is your final chance. You are being watched. We will remember who stood with the people and who committed crimes against them," Pahlavi wrote on X. EXILED PRINCE LOOKS TO LEAD IRANIAN PEOPLE IN ENDING ISLAMIC REPUBLIC: 'OUR BERLIN WALL MOMENT' On Monday, Pahlavi held a news conference in Paris, where he announced the launch of a secure platform for military, police and security personnel looking to defect from the regime to contact him and his team. He implied that he was already receiving such messages, saying that the platform would "efficiently manage the growing volume of inbound communications and requests from those breaking with the regime and seeking to join our movement." The exiled prince also issued a message to the world, urging the international community to let the "corrupt, crumbling, terrorist regime" in Iran fall. "Do not prop up a regime that will, soon again, turn its guns, missiles, and terror toward you," Pahlavi wrote. HERE'S WHAT A POST-AYATOLLAH IRAN COULD LOOK LIKE IF WAR WITH ISRAEL LEADS TO REGIME'S FALL The message posted on X comes one day after Pahlavi proposed that he lead Iran to democracy. He said it is the Iranian people's "Berlin Wall moment," as the future of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's regime remains uncertain following the destruction of Tehran's nuclear program. Khamenei was reportedly hiding in a bunker during the U.S. strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. "I am here today to submit myself to my compatriots to lead them down this road to peace and a democratic transition," Pahlavi said on Monday. "I do not seek political power, but rather to help our great nation navigate through this critical hour toward stability, freedom, and justice."

Which is more than you have ever given any Iranian." Pahlavi's late father, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the last Shah of Iran, was overthrown during the 1979 Iranian Revolution. In February, Pahlavi spoke at the Geneva Summit for Human Rights and Democracy, where he called for international action against Khamenei's regime and said Iranians were ready to reclaim their "stolen country."

'Allison Cooper': Trump calls CNN anchor Anderson Cooper 'Allison' in rant
President Donald Trump unleashed on CNN star anchor Anderson Cooper in a rant over news coverage of the conflict between Iran and Israel, and the recent U.S. involvement ordered by the president. Trump took to Truth Social on June 23 to call the "AC360" host "Allison Cooper," while slamming what he referred to as "fake news" organizations that "would say anything different in order to try and demean, as much as possible" in their stories about U.S. strikes of Iranian nuclear sites. In his post, Trump also slammed "Dumb Brian L. Roberts, Chairman of 'Con'cast, Jonny Karl of ABC Fake News, and always, the Losers of, again, Concast's NBC Fake News," in reference to Comcast chairman Roberts and ABC News' chief Washington correspondent Jonathan Karl. "It never ends with the sleazebags in the Media, and that's why their Ratings are at an ALL TIME LOW — ZERO CREDIBILITY!" Trump claimed. In the run up to the 2024 presidential campaign, Trump previously referred to Cooper as "Allison" at a Michigan campaign rally, according to The New York Times and The Associated Press, and on Truth Social. Anderson Cooper expresses 'regret' for comparing Trump to 'obese turtle' Public Notice newsletter writer Aaron Rupar, a popular voice in liberal politics, decried Trump's comments as "homophobic" in an X post. Cooper is openly gay. A spokesperson for Cooper at CNN told USA TODAY that they have "no comment and nothing to add." Anderson Cooper evacuated live on-air while reporting in Israel Cooper has been a central part of CNN's Israel-Iran coverage. On Monday, Cooper was forced to evacuate while filming live June 23 in Tel Aviv after an alarm warned of an upcoming missile launch from Iran. Anderson Cooper evacuates Israeli hotel on camera after Iranian missile alarms In a video "Anderson Cooper 360°" shared on X, the journalist and in-person correspondents evacuated their filming location while broadcasting from a hotel balcony in Israel early Monday, June 23, local time. "So these are the alerts that go out on all of our phones when you're in Israel," Cooper said of the alert alongside colleague Clarissa Ward, CNN's chief international correspondent. "It's a 10-minute warning of incoming missiles or something incoming from Iran. So now the location we're in has a verbal alarm telling people to go down into bomb shelters." Anderson Cooper previously apologized for Donald Trump comment The drama between Trump and Cooper includes an incident from the president's first term, when the "All There Is" podcast host admitted that he was disappointed in himself for comparing Trump to an "obese turtle" during coverage of the 2020 presidential election. "I should say that I regret using those words because that's not the person I really want to be," Cooper said Nov. 7, 2020. Celebrities tell all about aging, marriage and Beyoncé in these 10 bingeable memoirs Cooper made the comment after Trump wrongly claimed victory in the 2020 race, Cooper raised eyebrows for his own controversial comments. "That is the most powerful person in the world. And we see him like an obese turtle on his back flailing in the hot sun, realizing his time is over," Cooper said live on-air on CNN on Nov. 5, 2020.
