In attendance at a meeting with @araghchi and @drpezeshkian was @Rob_Malley.
He was President Biden’s handpicked “Iran envoy,” until his security clearance was suspended and he was abruptly placed on unpaid leave in 2023 amid an @FBI investigation into his handling of classified information.
For years, Iranian-Americans and members of Congress sought answers about what led to Malley’s removal from the @StateDept. Those efforts produced remarkably little public clarity.
The public deserves to know what happened.
@Kash_Patel should declassify and release the FBI’s findings to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Reminder that Trita Parsi, seen in this picture with islamic regime officials, once tried to sue a man for calling him a regime lobbyist and failed miserably.
Slovenian PM @JJansaSDS slams the UN for staying quiet about the Islamic regime in Iran murdering more than 40 000 anti-regime protesters in January this year.
🇸🇮🇮🇷
BREAKING: Slovenia’s Prime Minister comes out and slams the Islamic Republic for mass executing Iranians.
He was the only EU leader to mention the murders that have taken place.
Terrible to see all these ambassadors to the UN walk out on Israel. Not nearly as many walked out on Iran yesterday — even after they machine gunned 40,000 of their own people.
Colombia’s decision to sever diplomatic relations with the Islamic Republic is a principled stand against a regime that exports terrorism, engages in transnational crime, and systematically violates human rights.
Prince Reza Pahlavi thanked President De La Espriella and the people of Colombia for standing with the Iranian people, and looked ahead to an enduring partnership between Colombia and a free Iran, grounded in freedom, security, and democracy.
@CancilleriaCol@infopresidencia
Everything Pezeshkian says is a lie meant to deceive Americans.
I have no idea why Bret Bier even bothered to give him airtime.
This bloodthirsty demonic regime mass slaughtered innocent people on an industrial scale. They did not "meet with protesters", they sent shia terrorists to massacre everyone. Tens of thousands wiped out.
Shame on Fox News for platforming this beast.
Dear President De La Espriella,
The Iranian people thank you and the people of Colombia for your principled decision to sever diplomatic relations with the Islamic Republic.
Colombia has taken a clear stand against the Islamic Republic’s terrorism, transnational crime and systematic violations of human rights.The Iranian people will remember those who stood with them in their struggle for freedom.
I look forward to the day when a free Iran and Colombia can build a strong and enduring friendship based on our shared values of freedom, security and democracy.

Michigan Senate candidate Mike Rogers blasts Abdul El-Sayed for not directly condemning the IRGC when confronted by an Iranian-American student:
“This guy is just so completely dishonest. Think of this: this guy had the courage to stand up, and he got very emotional. The guy who asked the question, who was Persian and from Iran, had family members who had been murdered, family members who had been beaten because they didn’t wear their hijab correctly, and family members who had been whipped. He outlined all of this, and all you got was some kind of word salad. He couldn’t condemn the IRGC, which has American blood on its hands in Iraq. They killed our soldiers. As a matter of fact, this is the same group that tried to carry out a terrorist attack in Washington, D.C., to kill the Saudi ambassador. He can’t condemn that. But behind closed doors, he tells people, ‘Well, we can’t really do this because people are sad.’ He is dishonest. He’ll tell you one thing behind closed doors. Then he’ll tell you something completely different with this word salad and try to confuse people. And by the way, this audience was overwhelmingly young students. He wants to make sure you don’t know exactly where he stands. Listen, I just think this is so disqualifying. Tell us who you are, Abdul. Tell us where you stand on these things. Pick your team. And the problem is, he often picks teams that aren’t pro-American.”
"I could not have given him an easier layup."
University of Michigan student Iman Dashti joins @WillCainShow after confronting Abdul El-Sayed with a direct question: "I wanted to ask if you stand unequivocally against the IRGC?"
But El-Sayed dodged answering his question.
Dashti says he wanted a clear condemnation, telling Will Cain: "Just say you're against the world's largest sponsor of terror."
"I think it has something to do with the fact that a lot of his supporters are very supportive of the IRGC. They love the Iranian regime and he doesn't want to alienate them."
"He has an extreme base that just agrees with these horrible, horrible ideas that the majority of Americans don't believe in."
@willcain
Abdul El-Sayed gets called out for mourning the death of the Ayatollah
Q: Do you renounce those who supported Khamenei? Do you stand against the IRGC?
ABDUL: "We have turned ourselves into the world's policemen... One can disagree with the governance of a foreign country."
🚨 SHOCKING: Abdul El-Sayed refused to condemn the Iranian regime or the IRGC, even when directly confronted by an Iranian-American whose family was killed by them.
He’s putting radical votes ahead of human life.
Michigan deserves better. Vote for Mike Rogers! 🇺🇸
Abdul El-Sayed just protected the IRGC.
An Iranian student at U of M told him the regime hunted his cousin in the streets because her hijab wasn’t on right and then asked him to stand with them. He refused to condemn the IRGC.
El-Sayed blamed U.S. sanctions, wars, and “corporate interests” instead.
He threw America under the bus because calling out true evil would have required moral courage.
“Do you stand with us?”
A Michigan town hall grew tense as a Persian student repeatedly challenged Dem Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed over Iran — invoking his family’s alleged persecution before pressing El-Sayed for a direct answer.
WATCH the back-and-forth:
