Workers in Iran today chant against the regime's #internetshutdown:

"They support corrupt people and fear the internet"

@netblocks reported significant internet disruption this week as the regime seeks to muffle #IranProtests

Chants of "Khuzestan has no water" in Tehran on Day 17 of #IranProtests.

The regime has been unable to end the protests despite a deadly crackdown and disruptions to the internet. The MEK report numerous similar anti-regime protests today in Shush and other parts of Iran.
There were also chants of "Death to the dictator" in today's protests in Tehran.

This was once a taboo in Iran. Khamenei & Raisi have lost their iron grip on society.

The police just don't seem to know what to do here as protesters in Iran's capital today chant: "Iranians will die, but won't accept abjection"

The EU & US should hold mass murderer Ebrahim Raisi accountable

Senior editors of @amconmag have ties to @NIACouncil & have published hundreds of items attacking US policy & promoting Iran's regime. My new scoop for @IranNewsUpdate1

I'm posting key findings as a thread

CC: @johnnyburtka @DanielLarison @j_arthur_bloom
irannewsupdate.com/news/general/7…
The American Conservative @amconmag is secretly working w/ Iran's lobby @NIACouncil

In 2018 its panel included NIAC founder @tparsi. It has systematically run ~400 pro-regime pieces echoing @JZarif's talking points that also attack Trump Admin policies & officials inc @SecPompeo
For the record, in 2012 the US District Court for DC ruled @NIACouncil & its President @tparsi were “first and foremost an advocate for the regime” in Iran

NIAC lobbies for an end to sanctions on the regime & demonizes the opposition MEK

THREAD on Iran's economic meltdown:

The regime's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei last Wednesday issued an Executive Order sending Iran's 2020-2021 budget bill to the Guardian Council without Parliament's approval, using the #Coronavirus crisis as an excuse.
en.parliran.ir/eng/en/Content…
By bypassing lawmakers Khamenei hasn't solved Iran's economic crisis. He's simply swept it under the rug. The new budget is 20176016794000000 Rials.
~20000 trillion Rials = $480 billion (official rate) or $132 billion (actual rate). The regime has nowhere near that kind of income
Iran's 2019 budget was based on oil exports of 1.54M bpd at $54/barrel. But US sanctions brought exports as low as 100000 bpd. The new budget is based on sales of 1M bpd at $50/barrel, so income will be < last year. Oil/gas revenue is estimated at $10.83B (454986 billion Rials).

THREAD @PatrickKingsley's @nytimes piece on Iran's MEK is contradictory, fails to offer an objective view & oddly enough has no "scoop". It's just slander. PK says he was allowed in MEK's camp for 9hrs, which in itself undermines his attempt to portray them as secretive & closed.
@PatrickKingsley @nytimes @nytimesworld @amsafavi @iran_policy @USEmbassyTirana @StateDept .@PatrickKingsley's piece on the Iranian opposition in 🇦🇱 just doesn't make sense:
He both claims the MEK deny the media access to their camp, but says he was allowed in
He claims he wanted to interview MEK ppl, but then describes their remarks to him as "propaganda sessions"
…
@PatrickKingsley @nytimes @nytimesworld @amsafavi @iran_policy @USEmbassyTirana @StateDept Question to @PatrickKingsley: How could you be somewhere for 9 hours, talk to people privately, photograph them & quote them in an article, yet claim the place is secretive? The MEK gave @nytimes unfettered access to their camp. Is this journalism or pursuing a different agenda?

A group of US-based "analysts" spoke by video-call Monday at an event called "America's Demise" held by Iran's Intel Ministry aimed at boosting IRGC morale after Soleimani's death. @FBI should do a background check on these ppl for possible US law violations.

"IRGC, shame on you. Let go of our country" - chants at #IranProtests today in Tehran's Amirkabir University after the Revolutionary Guards admit to shooting down a #UkrainianPlane. Today @Maryam_Rajavi called it a great crime that Iran's people will neither forgive nor forget.
@Maryam_Rajavi "Death to the dictator" being chanted by students in Iran's capital today after IRGC admits it was responsible for #UkrainePlaneCrash. MEK sources at the scene in Amirkabir Uni say other chants include "We will not praise the murderous [Supreme] Leader" #IranProtests
CC @PressSec
@Maryam_Rajavi @PressSec Woah! Now they're chanting for the Supreme Leader to go: "Commander-in-chief, resign, resign".
Iran's regime faces huge public outcry after IRGC admits it caused #UkrainePlaneCrash.
MEK sources say students at #IranProtests in Amirkabir Uni are also chanting Death to the Dictator
