This is the All Local morning update for Saturday, January 31st 2026

New reports this week suggest that more than 30,000 people have died in the Iran protests. Iranian state media says it's more like 3,000; either way, it's a massive and devastating loss of human life. The big question now is whether it's massive enough to cross President Trump's red line. Piers Morgan first speaks to The Grayzone's editor-in-chief, Max Blumenthal and former IDF lieutenant colonel and spokesman Jonathan Conricus. He then asks former Special Advisor on Genocide to the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, Dr. Payam Akhavan, about the truth of the death tolls before speaking to Iranian-American activist Masih Alinejad, from New York where she faced her would-be assassin Carlisle Rivera, who has now been sentenced to 15 years in prison.

But despite this, reports started to come out about a crackdown. On Tuesday, an Iranian official said the death toll, composed of both protesters and security personnel, was over 2,000 people.The protests have garnered some global supporters, including U.S. President Donald Trump, who has issued threats to the Iranian regime over its treatment of the protesters.Today's guest is Thomas Juneau.

On today's podcast:1) President Trump dismissed Jamie Dimon’s criticism over the Justice Department probe into the Federal Reserve, saying the JPMorgan Chase & Co. chief executive officer was “wrong” to suggest he was undermining the independence of the central bank. Earlier Tuesday, Dimon expressed concern about the investigation into Fed Chair Jerome Powell over the cost of the central bank’s headquarters renovation and his subsequent congressional testimony about the project. Trump said he would press ahead with plans to announce Powell’s replacement within “the next few weeks” despite the backlash to the probe, which has drawn criticism from Republican lawmakers — including a threat by Senator Thom Tillis, a retiring North Carolina Republican and swing vote on the Senate Banking Committee. Tillis has said he would block new nominations to the Fed until the matter is resolved.2) More than 2,500 people have been killed in Iranian protests that have swept the nation, activist groups said, as Tehran continued its crackdown despite President Trump’s threat of action over mounting fatalities. The US-based Human Rights Activists News Agency reported 2,571 deaths as of Wednesday, up from about 500 at the start of the week and amid speculation the actual toll could be dramatically higher. On Tuesday, Trump urged Iranians to continue protests against the regime of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.3) Top diplomats from Greenland and Denmark are gearing up for the test of a lifetime as they work to persuade the Trump administration to back off on its demands for the Arctic territory that threaten to break up the NATO defense alliance. Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen and his counterpart from Nuuk, Vivian Motzfeldt, will face US Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio at the White House on Wednesday, just hours after the island’s prime minister said that if made to choose, Greenland would opt for Denmark.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The death toll from anti-government protests in Iran has climbed to more than 2,500 people according to activists, but there are fears the actual toll is far higher.
