1)
 Yes, @CNN's @camanpour compared U.S. President Donald Trump to the Nazis.

But don't be surprised. Amanpour is a known #Iran apologist. I'll show you in this thread.
2)
 Amanpour recently compared U.S. President Donald Trump to Iran’s Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the man who denied the Holocaust.

Of course, Amanpour is quite fond of the regime, always providing a platform to its presidents with a smile. ImageImageImageImage
3)
 Amanpour has a history of providing airtime to Iranian regime officials - so-called reformists - to push their talking points.

 #Iran apologist/lobbyist @tparsi—founder of Iran lobby group @NIACouncil—is pushing the talking point of U.S. elections being over & seeking a full-throttle appeasement of the genocidal regime in Tehran far beyond the Obama 2015 nuclear deal. ImageImage
2)
 First, a reminder of how the Obama nuclear deal provided huge amounts of money to the regime in Iran.

Iranian MP Alireza Zakani: The Obama administration gave Iran $1.7 billion in unmarked cash, with $400 million in suitcases.
3)
 NIAC is a lobby group in the U.S. pushing Iran’s talking points.

Listen to this Iranian regime insider explain that NIAC was established by @JZarif, the foreign minister of Iran.

 Amanpour also pitched in to help Iran's damage control efforts after Iran’s IRGC shot down a Ukrainian passenger flight PS752 with surface-to-air missiles.

Notice how she blames the U.S. & portrays a very innocent image of Iran's regime.

THREAD—SCOOP

1)
 Sima Ladjevardian’s family has apparently been smuggling illegal cargo from #Iran pocketing millions of dollars. @SimaforTX is running against Rep. @DanCrenshawTX.

Open-source info reveals about Ladjeverdian fiscal history, which she needs to clarify.
2)
 The Ladjevardian campaign funds could be illegally sourced from business deals with Iran (Byzantine Stones, LLC) in defiance of US sanctions.

A lawsuit reveals the family lied about a shipment weight that led to the death of a man handling the cargo.
