Patrick Henningsen | 40 Million Mourners: Khamenei's Funeral and Iran's Defiance | Aug. 20, 2026

Labels , , , , Source: Deep Dive Perspective youtube 21stcenturywire.com, 21st Century Wire youtube



Description:
Patrick Henningsen says he witnessed up to 40 million Iranians mourn Ayatollah Khamenei — directly contradicting Western claims that Iranians despise their leader. What did he see that wasn't shown on Western TV?

In this episode of Deep Dive Perspective, 21st Century Wire founder Patrick Henningsen describes what he says he witnessed at the funeral processions for Ayatollah Khamenei — from Tehran to Najaf and Karbala — and why he argues Western coverage misread the scale and meaning of the turnout. Henningsen estimates 8-15 million in Tehran alone and around 40 million nationwide over a week, claims participants came voluntarily, and describes free food distribution and widespread signs of solidarity.

We then examine Henningsen's claims about Iran under Khamenei — high literacy, women in STEM PhDs, and push for self-sufficiency in nuclear physics, missiles, drones and agriculture — and his allegation that Iran's knowledge economy is why he says universities including Sharif University have been targeted. He contrasts Iran with Gulf monarchies, argues Iran is the only regional state standing up for Palestinians and Lebanon, and outlines asymmetric warfare, the "corridor" through Syria/Iraq, and his claim that Iraqi oil revenues held in New York give the US leverage via the dollar.

Patrick Henningsen | Trump Has Stabbed His Base in the Back — The MAGA Collapse Exposed | June 23, 2026

Labels , , Source: Deep Dive Perspective youtube, 21stcenturywire.com



Description: 
Trump promised no new wars. He gave them three. He promised to drain the swamp. He filled it with Wall Street, Big Oil, and the Israeli lobby. Patrick Henningsen breaks down the collapse of MAGA in real time.

Donald Trump's second term was supposed to be different. The populist outsider. The anti-war candidate. The drain-the-swamp president. Political analyst Patrick Henningsen, of 21st Century Wire, argues it has become the opposite — a presidency increasingly captured by financial elites, the energy sector, and, most critically, a foreign lobby that now effectively directs US military strategy across the Middle East.

In this episode, Henningsen delivers a forensic verdict on Trump's first months back in office: the broken border wall promise, the declaration of war against Yemen and Iran, the abandonment of working-class and independent voters, and the systematic removal of any MAGA figure — Matt Gaetz being the clearest case study — who showed signs of genuine anti-interventionism. His conclusion: the founding fathers would have recognised this moment as their worst nightmare, and the only question left is who in American politics has the credibility to challenge it.

In This Episode:
• Trump's report card: immigration, economy & the "no new wars" promise — all assessed
• "Complete failure" — the US declaration of war against Yemen and Iran
• Who really is Trump's base now: Wall Street, Big Oil & the Israeli lobby
• The Matt Gaetz takedown — how Jared Kushner & Howard Lutnick removed a real MAGA voice
• The Israeli lobby (AIPAC) — how a foreign government primaries US congresspeople
• "A little country the size of New Jersey is controlling the US armed forces"
• Five presidential terms of executive order escalation — the death of checks & balances
• Why the founding fathers would recognise this as their worst nightmare
• Mumdani (NYC Mayor) & Dan Bilzerian — the disruptors who could reshape US politics
• Why every anti-war candidate eventually becomes a warmonger once in office
• The collapse of the MAGA coalition — Hispanics, Blacks, independents all walking away
• Midterm projections: Republican defeat, Democratic comeback & possible impeachment
