NEWS from AF1 - POTUS doubled down on cultural sites in Iran as appropriate sites for retaliation.
“They’re allowed to kill our people. They’re allowed to torture and maim our people. they’re allowed to use roadside bombs and blow up our people. And we’re not allowed to touch their cultural site? It doesn’t work that way," POTUS SAID.
Regarding retaliation from Iran:
“If it happens it happens. If they do anything there will be major retaliation."
POTUS on possibility of US presence being forced out of Iraq: "We're not leaving unless they pay us back for it" (referring to the air base).

Mulvaney and Blair's exchange on June 27 makes clear they saw the freeze of the Ukraine military aid as a potential political problem. With the whistleblower complaint, it moved to a question of whether it was a legal problem. nytimes.com/2019/12/29/us/…
DoJ's OLC deemed the complaint as not having an "urgent" concern. When Barr and the WH counsel's office advocated releasing the transcript, they were looking at it from a legal standpoint. Mulvaney has told associates...
...he didn't know the specifics of the Trump/Zelensky call on July 25 - the words Biden and server, for instance - until he was at UNGA while the reconstructed transcript was about to be released nytimes.com/2019/12/29/us/…

Key takeaways from our reconstruction of the effort by Trump to freeze aid approved by Congress for Ukraine: nytimes.com/2019/12/29/us/…
Rob Blair, a top aide to Mulvaney, said in a June 27 email exchange not previously reported on that it could be held but that Congress would become "unhinged." nytimes.com/2019/12/29/us/…
Some top aides are offering the defense that they didn't connect the aid freeze to the Giuliani-Biden investigations track. Mulvaney has told associates he stepped away when Trump would talk to Giuliani to protect his atty-client privilege nytimes.com/2019/12/29/us/…

Relief comes to villagers by people through a road that was destroyed to allow for water to pass and therefore it is not possible to pass through.
No sign of any help from regime authorities.

#Iran: several thousand people gathered o the central market in the Arab city of #Ahwaz to protest against the Iranian regime and what they describe as "discriminating policies against the Arab people"
#Iran: the situation later turned violent after Iranian police tried to break up the Arab protest in #Ahwaz, using tear gas and rubber bullets on the people.

The protests are a response to insults being made towards the Arab people on Iranian TV
#Iran: the Arab city of #Ahwaz today. Women are facing off against the Iranian police as they protest the regime's discriminating policies
