‘The Rats Are Leaving the Ship’: Bessent Says Iran’s Leaders ‘Wiring Money out Like Crazy’ as Regime Fears ‘End May Be Near’

Joshua Klein 6 Feb 2026

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Thursday that Iran’s ruling elite are “wiring money out of the country like crazy,” declaring that “the rats are leaving the ship” as the Trump administration’s pressure campaign accelerates the regime’s economic collapse.

Bessent made the remarks during testimony before the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs, telling lawmakers that Treasury is seeing unmistakable signs that Iran’s leadership believes the regime is approaching a breaking point.

“We have seen the Iranian leadership wiring money out of the country like crazy,” Bessent said. “The rats are leaving the ship. That is a good sign that they know the end may be near.”

I am fine with that. Quoting the prophet Steve Miller "Take the money and run."
Just leave and never come back.
 Oh and what ever happens to you by the hands of your enemies after you leave is not our problem either, but I might be willing to buy them a beer.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
