1)
 Periodic reminder:
#Iran's lobbyists have close ties with Biden & Harris.

@NegarMortazavi & @YasmineTaeb, the ladies leading this rally, are linked to Iran lobby group @NIACouncil.

Important:
Iran has infiltrated into the U.S. political system
2)
 Listen to Negar Mortazavi, a known Iran lobbyist, say she is in "close contact" with Team Biden.

And there’s more.
3)
 Why is this issue important?

Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe and FBI Director Christopher Wray said recently that Iran and Russia are working to undermine the integrity of the 2020 election.

 Iranian tankers are hiding in Iraqi waters to do their ship-to-ship transfers of crude oil & avoid U.S. sanctions.

U.S. maximum pressure policy targeting #Iran’s regime has been highly effective. Just has a few glitches that need attention.

 Iraq Emerges as New Front for Enforcement of Iran Oil Sanctions

American officials say smugglers are increasingly using Iraqi waters to evade curbs on Tehran’s trade.

3)
 The Iraqi port of Al Faw is one regularly used point of transfer, according to the sources and the documents. There, Iranian tankers offload the crude to other vessels where it is mixed with oil from other sources, such as local crude, to avoid detection. Image

This is an unprecedented trial. The bomb plot could have been devastating. Also, we know that the direct implication of the Iranian state in this disgusting crime is now established.

 Iran & Russia got their hands on U.S. voter registration information, enabling the foreign adversaries to send false information to registered voters as a means to sow chaos & confusion & undermine the public’s confidence in America’s electoral process.
3)
 The foreign nations aren’t the only disseminators of false information. American groups including Never Trump operation the Lincoln Project served as #Iran’s American digital foot soldiers, buying into the disinformation & amplifying it.
The Lincoln Project deleted this tweet.

 Iraqi military intelligence confiscated 19 containers of smuggled medicine from #Iran.

All the while, @JZarif, Iran's apologists/lobbyists & #FakeNews outlets like @nytimes & @CNN, blame U.S. sanctions for "medicine shortages" in Iran.

Let’s debunk these lies.
2)
 @AP blames #Iran's Covid-19 crisis on "American sanctions"

Reminders for AP & other MSM outlets:
-Iran's Foreign Ministry spox: "... medicine & food, as you know, were not on any sanctions..."
-Iran's state media confirm food/medicine not sanctioned
-Iran rejected int'l aid
3)
 Iran's own media indicates the “food/medicine sanctions” is fake news

Feb 4 — "Iran not relying on Swiss mechanism for supplying medicine, basic goods” – meaning no shortage in medicine & basic goods

May 14 — “Some 96 tons of medical supplies arrive in Iran from Germany”
