Any thoughts @SenSanders?

@khamenei_ir's assets are:

-$95 billion
reuters.com/investigates/i…

-$200 billion
freebeacon.com/national-secur…

#Iran has billions of dollars, but chooses to spend them on terrorists, not the Iranian people's needs.
Reminder for @SenSanders:

"Treasury Designates Vast Network of IRGC-QF Officials and Front Companies in Iraq, Iran"
home.treasury.gov/news/press-rel…

IRGC & Quds Force are designated terrorist entities.

Sen. Sanders, do you understand that you are defending #Iran's terrorism?
This read sheds light on the fake news published by MSM & pushed by #Iran's regime & its network of apologists/lobbyists abroad.

I am not hysterical or fearful when it comes to #CoronaVirus. What I am “Truly” Concerned About & Afraid of: is “How” the Powers & Governments Can Utilize & Use it- and the “Things” they can Do to us Utilizing it. Does That Make Sense?
#CoronaVirus: The Timing of it makes me think. The Reaction & Associated Actions to it Make me think Twice and Harder. And the possible “Man-Made” (Non-Organic) consequences and results make me highly concerned. Hope you catch my drift.
