1)
Red Flag!

Meet Sima Ladjevardian (@SimaforTX), endorsed by #Iran’s lobby @paaia, seeking to unseat Rep. @DanCrenshawTX DanCrenshaw, a decorated U.S. veteran.

America, and the State of Texas, please take this warning seriously.

Sima Ladjevardian enjoys the support of Obama and Biden, and has special relations with the Clintons.

Ladjevardian & Clinton’s 2016 campaign

June 2015—"Inside Hillary Clinton's private Houston fundraiser with top donors”

“Close to 200 guests ponied up the minimum contribution of $2,700, while some in the group brought in considerably more dollars.”

Aug 2016—"Bill Clinton will raise money in San Antonio, Houston, Dallas next week”

The Houston fundraiser’s hosts included attorney Sima Ladjevardian

“The price of admission for the receptions ranges from $2,700 to $33,400.”

Ladjevardian entered the Harris County Democratic Party office in Houston primaries in the filing deadline on December 9, 2019.

It is quite interesting how this former @BetoORourke adviser was quickly escorted through the process.
6)
Interesting that @jrezaian—who should logically hate the mullahs’ regime for imprisoning him—is wholeheartedly promoting a candidate endorsed by this very regime’s lobby in the U.S.?

Hmmm. Coincidence? I think not.
7)
For those interested, this thread sheds light on just one example of how Jason Rezaian is using his WaPo column to push Iran’s talking points.
8)
Ben Rhodes also supports Ladjevardian.

But don't be surprised.

Rhodes has a remarkably close relation with @NIACouncil, another Iran lobby group in the U.S., and its founder @tparsi.
9)
Obama & Rhodes invited a former Iranian ambassador @hmousavian & NIAC founder Parsi to the White House over 30 times to hammer out the 2015 nuclear deal.

For those interested, this thread sheds more light on Mousavian & Parsi.
11)
Congress Seeks Investigation Into Pro-Iran Lobby Group Tied to Tehran Regime

NIAC long accused of serving as Iran's U.S. lobbying arm
freebeacon.com/national-secur…
12)
PAAIA is an official Iran lobby org in DC

NIAC, however, denies any such lobbying for Tehran

Take a look at #NIACLobbies4Mullahs to see how Iranians feel about NIAC

And listen to this former regime insider explains how NIAC was launched by @JZarif
13)
“Trita Parsi, executive VP of the Quincy Institute, an isolationist think tank funded by billionaires George Soros & Charles Koch, copied criticisms of Trump's response to Portland protests first spread by Iranian foreign minister Javad Zarif...”

14)
NIAC founder Trita Parsi very clearly parrots Zarif’s talking points.
15)
@saharnow, a former NIAC member, reached as far as the Oval Office during the Obama/Biden tenure & had major influence in helping craft the full throttle appeasement vis-à-vis Iran’s regime.

Short thread for those interested
16)
For those interested on this topic:

@YasmineTaeb is another former NIAC member who sought a seat in the Virginia Senate.

This thread sheds light on her background.
17)
For those interested, this thread shows how NIAC members have already found their way into the U.S. Congress.
18)
Iran also has “reporters” establishing close ties with Team Biden to push its talking points into Biden’s foreign policy agenda.

This thread sheds light.
19)
Iran is spending a massive amount of money to place its figures in the U.S. legislature. This makes it even more imperative to:

-be informed & inform others

-call on your representatives & senators to investigate into Iran’s lobby groups in the U.S.

Thank you for reading & I welcome all constructive feedback.

And since I have a feeling there will be a backlash from pro-Iran regime voices on Twitter accusing me of being a “fake” account, I’ll leave this link from my blog that debunks those claims.
