There's no mention, of course, of the #IranProtests against their own failing theocracy. Meanwhile abroad @Newsweek has got the regime covered. #FakeNews

Today's letter by @Ilhan, @RepBarbaraLee & @RepRaulGrijalva was probably drafted by Iran's mullahs.
They're objecting to "the designation of Iran's Central Bank under terror authorities".
PS: @NIACouncil helped draft the text
PPS: Iran's ppl support sanctions on their oppressors
@Ilhan @RepBarbaraLee @RepRaulGrijalva @NIACouncil @SecPompeo @USTreasury @SenTedCruz @DonaldJTrumpJr @davereaboi @RichardGrenell @mercedesschlapp @hughhewitt @mschlapp @RepLeeZeldin Did some digging over the letter's authors. Found out @NIACouncil (Iran rgm's lobby in the US) has a mole in Congress. @samira_says is now a permanent Legislative Assistant in the Office of @RepBarbaraLee. That could potentially give her (& the regime) access to US citizens' data

It turns out the Senior Legislative Assistant to @Ilhan is non other than @mahyarsorour who in July was a candidate for NIAC Action's leadership board. @NIACouncil is an arm of Iran's Intelligence Ministry.

New video clips of the #IranProtests emerge as limited internet is restored in Iran after 1 week. The woman filming says she can't go forward due to teargas. The MEK has now confirmed the names of 99 protesters out of 285 killed by the regime.

"Guns, tanks & fireworks. Rouhani must get lost" - chants at #IranProtests in Kerman, sent out of Iran via MEK activists with a delay due to 1 week of internet shut down. Iranians want an end to the mullahs' regime.

@RichardGrenell @MessageFromLen @statedeptspox
@RichardGrenell @MessageFromLen @statedeptspox "Inflation! High prices! Explain yourself Rouhani"
The regime's apologists claim sanctions will rally domestic support for the regime. But chants at the #IranProtests show Iran's people blame only the mullahs for their economic hardship.

#Iran's regime exporting their policy of crackdown against freedom of assembly to Vienna.

And the Europeans bowing to their demands.
This also proves once again how the mullahs' regime ruling #Iran, despite all their boasting, is utterly terrified of a simple protest gathering by a group of Iranian dissidents in a European capital.
Hey @Twitter,
Quick question.
Can you show me the "offensive content" here?

Reports indicate at least 40 dead and over 160 injured as protests are spreading across the country.
These numbers are expected to increase as the mullahs' regime resorts to more deadly crackdown.

Frustrating how @TwitterSupport suspends #Iranian dissidents like #HeshmatAlavi while #IranLobby is enjoying the #FreedomOfSpeech, press & safety in #USA using full name, picture & verified @Twitter accounts.
Obviously their families in #Iran are also safe thanks 2 their lobbying
When @jack Dorsey, @ev-an Williams & @biz Stone founded @Twitter in 2006 it began as a toy for online flirtation but during the #IranElection in 2009 it suddenly turned to a serious platform for #Politics representing #FreedomofExpression & #FreedomOfSpeech in #Iran
#FreeAlavi
People in #Iran used anonymous @twitter accounts to tell the world about what is happening in the streets of #Tehran in real time. This is exactly what #HeshmatAlavi was doing especially during #IranProtests in Dec 2017 until his account was suspended.
