1) #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.
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.
4) Parsi is the official founder of NIAC in the U.S.
Listen to how Parsi parrots Zarif’s talking points.
5) Emails from 2006 between Parsi & Zarif, then Iran’s ambassador to the UN.
Paris described himself by saying: “Few analysts in Washington have the access of Dr. Parsi to decision makers in Iran.”
6) Here’s an email from Parsi on June 18, 2009, to Antony Blinken, U.S. Deputy Secretary of State from 2015-17 & Deputy National Security Advisor from 2013-15 in the Obama administration.
7) The Obama admin was in bed with Iran’s regime & its lobby group NIAC, based on released emails.
“I have chatted with NIAC folks over the years”
“we do have a relationship with NIAC”
NIAC sought the admin’s advice on paying President Clinton for a speech.
8) The ties between the Obama/Biden State Dept. with NIAC were so strong that NIAC sought their advice on former U.S. President Bill Clinton doing a paid speech at a fundraising event.
Yes—Iran seeking to pay the Clintons.
And Obama/Biden’s State Dept. had no problem with it.
9) How Trita Parsi & NIAC Used the White House to Advance Iran’s Agenda
“… organizing the grassroots and pressure US lawmakers to pose a more Iran friendly position.” tabletmag.com/sections/news/…
10) Former Iranian Official, Pro-Tehran Lobbyist Hosted at Obama White House Dozens of Times
“Trita Parsi, a pro-Iran advocate long accused of hiding his ties to the Iranian government, met with Obama administration officials some 33 times…” freebeacon.com/national-secur…
"The National Iranian American Council (NIAC) frequently echoes Tehran’s rhetoric in redirecting blame at the U.S. for Iranian aggression and malfeasance." nationalreview.com/2020/10/an-ira…
12) Iran took advantage of the Obama administration's appeasement & had apologists/lobbyists push its talking points freely.

Student activist Soha Mortezaei was sentenced to six year in prison for holding a solitary sit-in outside Tehran University in protest to being banned from education for her political activities. #Iran #WomenPrisonersVoice iran-hrm.com/index.php/2020…
2) "We have witnessed the regime’s crimes against its own people & its int'l terror schemes... #Iran’s shuts down the internet & access to info to keep Iranians in the dark," said former Columbian presidential candidate Ingrid Betancourt. #WeStand4FreeIran pscp.tv/iran_policy/1g…
3) "We need to work for democracy in #Iran. We need change, a standard democracy. In different cities, people are rising up and saying it’s enough. It’s time for Sweden to support Iranian democracy," said Swedish MP Magnus Oscarsson. #WeStand4FreeIran pscp.tv/iran_policy/1g…
1) Not surprised at all to see @camanpour of @CNN compare 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.
2) Amanpour has a history of providing airtime to Iranian regime officials - so-called reformists - to push their talking points.
3) 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.
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.
3) Sima Ladjevardian, an Iranian born attorney, resides in a mega multimillion-dollar estate in Memorial of Houston with her husband and business partner Masoud Ladjevardian.
