Mr. President, this is an urgent and immediate call for your attention, support, and action. Last night you saw the millions of brave Iranians in the streets facing down live bullets. Today, they are facing not just bullets but a total communications blackout. No Internet. No landlines.
Ali Khamenei, fearing the end of his criminal regime at the hands of the people and with the help of your powerful promise to support the protesters, has threatened the people on the streets with a brutal crack down. And he wants to use this blackout to murder these young heroes.
I have called the people to the streets to fight for their freedom and to overwhelm the security forces with sheer numbers. Last night they did that. Your threat to this criminal regime has also kept the regime’s thugs at bay. But time is of the essence. The people will be on the streets again in an hour. I am asking you to help.
You have proven and I know you are a man of peace and a man of your word. Please be prepared to intervene to help the people of Iran.
Today I've asked Starlink/X CEO Elon Musk to activate Starlink Direct-to-Cell and Google CEO Sundar Pichai to expand Satellite SOS for Iran during the ongoing internet blackouts and protests.

Many people argue that Iranians don't have modern phones capable of using these satellite technologies. This claim is demonstrably false.
I analyzed our VPN app data (ArgoVPN) from December 2025 in Iran. The results are clear:
• 15% of Iranian users already have Starlink-compatible devices (over 1 million installs in December alone)
• The top 3 most popular devices in Iran are ALL Starlink-compatible: Samsung Galaxy A32, A51, and A54x
• These are mid-range, affordable devices - not expensive flagships
Here's what people miss about Starlink Direct-to-Cell:
It requires ZERO special hardware. No satellite dish. No special antenna. Any LTE phone from the last ~4 years works. The satellites act as cell towers in space, and phones connect automatically when there's no cellular signal.
The technology is ready. The phones are already in people's hands. With 90 million people in Iran, the potential reach is enormous.
The main barrier isn't device availability - it's deployment and carrier agreements.
The Iranian people are fighting for the very freedoms America was built upon. This is an opportunity for American tech leadership to make a tangible difference - not just in saving lives during emergencies, but in supporting the fundamental human right to free communication.
@elonmusk: Please fully activate Starlink Direct-to-Cell over Iran NOW.
@SundarPichai: Please expand Google Satellite SOS to Iran.
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸@realDonaldTrump@SecRubio: This is a historic opportunity - using American innovation to support freedom without troops or billions in aid. Just technology that's already built. Help the Iranian people break through censorship and communicate with the world.

If you claim to support human rights yet can’t bring yourself to show solidarity with those fighting for their liberty in Iran, you’ve revealed yourself. You don’t give a damn about people being oppressed and brutalised so long as it’s being done by the enemies of your enemies.
”مرد ایرانی“ به محض خروج اش از ایران سطح و مرتبه اش چند پله سقوط میکنه. این یک واقعیته.
۱- چهره و رنگ پوستش در جامعه میزبان به عنوان یک تهدید دیده میشه
۲- مهارت های زبانی اش که لازمه نشون دادن توانایی هاش هست یهو به مرحله صفر سقوط میکنه.
۳- شبکه انسانی خانواده و رفقای خیلی نزدیکش که جزو سرمایه های یک مرد هست رو از دست میده.
هیچ کدوم از این ۳ تا برای ”دختر ایرانی“ اتفاق نمی افته. در نتیجه جای تعجب نداره که پسرهای ایرانی اول راه خیلی اذیت می شند. مخصوصا بیشتر اذیت می شند اگه توی ایران شرایطشون خوب بوده باشه.
این نارضایتی کاملا سیستماتیکه و هیچ ارتباطی با کیفیت مرد ایرانی نداره. عین همین اتفاق برای مردهای بقیه ملت ها هم در زمان مهاجرت می افته. حتی یک پسر کرد یا ترک که به تهران مهاجرت میکنه هم شبیه این چیزها رو تجربه می کنه.
درک و فهمیدن این سقوط سیستماتیک و جدا کردنش از کیفیت مرد ایرانی یک شعوری میخواد که خیلی از دخترهای ایرانی متاسفانه ندارند.
اینکه بعد مهاجرت دختر ایرانی همون اول راه مسیرش رو از پسر ایرانی جدا میکنه و از نعمات و مزایای جامعه میزبان استفاده میکنه و لذت می بره رو هیچ مشکلی باهاش ندارم. نوش جون تون. چیزی که باهاش مشکل دارم اینه که این سقوط سیستماتیک مرد ایرانی رو به حساب بی کفایتی اش بگذارید و برای خودتون نوشابه باز کنید.

We are waiting for a long time for a temporary student visa...
Every day, we are suffering from stress and anxiety as we will lose our scholarships and admissions that we have made so much effort and spent a lot of time and energy to achieve.

@ali_rezajoo من در 30 سالگی حقوق ماهیانه دریافتیم 2 میلیون تومان بود که 10 درصدش میشد 200 هزار تومان. اون موقع قیمت سکه 1.5 میلیون تومان بود و من برای خرید سکه باید 7.5 ماه پولم رو کنار میگذاشتم. اما 7 ماه بعد دیگه قیمت سکه 1.5 میلیون نبود و ضمناً خرج زندگی 2 برابر شده بود. اشکال رو می بینید؟
@JohnRoss49 Finally, an article clearly depicts the misery of #Iranian_students who have decided to wait for their visas. It feels our lives were wasted. We have known the reason for it all along: #discriminating character assessment! Please, end this defective process. @AlboMP@ClareONeilMP
@uniaus@AlboMP@PressClubAust I have been waiting for my student visa for almost 1000 days. Is equity in education not applicable to international students who won scholarships from Australian universities?
#NeverEndingMisery
@ClareONeilMP intl students suffer the consequences of such unprecedented actions. Help us end this #discrimination in long character assessment for #Iranian_students. We have waited for +2 years. Our lives are already ruined, is it not enough?
