This morning, the Islamic Republic executed two more men in connection with the Lion and Sun Revolution.

The regime's massacre of the Iranian people continues to run unabated. It didn't end in January.

Don't let those in the free world be silent. Stand with the people of Iran.

[Reza Pahlavi @PahlaviReza]

Thank you for your principled stand at the United Nations and for giving voice to the people of Iran.

By speaking out against the Islamic Republic’s atrocities, including the massacre of tens of thousands of Iranians in January and the ongoing executions, you have shown moral clarity when too many others have remained silent.

Iranians will not forget those who stand with them in their struggle for freedom.

I look forward to the day a free Iran will be a friend and ally of Slovenia.

It’s one thing to meet the representatives of a murderous dictatorship as a diplomat in the course of a negotiation, or as a journalist, provided that you ask tough questions and expose their hypocrisy. But if you’re no longer a government official, or you don’t ask tough questions, you’re just normalizing a murderous dictatorship. And obviously that’s despicable.

"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."

Every year people promote these MEK protests, thinking they are just Iranian protests. Rudy is different though. He knows they are Islamist Marxists who hate America and everything America stands for, and have no support in Iran. He just doesn’t care, because they pay him not to.

Four years ago, Sarina Esmailzadeh was a 16-year-old vlogger, a teenager who sang, danced, made videos, and shared pieces of her life with the world.

On September 23, 2022, she joined the protests in Karaj. She was fatally beaten by security forces.

Sarina’s videos outlived her. They became a glimpse of the young woman she was and the life she should have had ahead of her.

Now, we remember more than how Sarina died. We remember how she lived.

Sarina Esmailzadeh, forever 16.
Never forgotten.

Ali Zarei took to the streets alongside his countrymen in 2022 after the death of Mahsa Amini.

Regime forces shot him in the eye, leaving him blinded. He left the country, but later returned. Upon his return, he was sentenced to death.

Yesterday, he was transferred to solitary confinement. His death sentence may be carried out at any moment.

Say Ali's name, and share his story. His life is in imminent danger.

His trumpet suddenly gives out in the middle of the national anthem. Dr. Jesse McGuire doesn't let the moment fall apart.

After trying to fix the instrument, McGuire grabs the microphone and starts singing "The Star-Spangled Banner" himself, carrying the anthem through to the finish.

One unexpected malfunction turns into an unforgettable save before the MLB game.

Ali Zarei is at imminent risk of execution. The wave of executions following the January massacre is a continuation of the political genocide carried out by Islamofascist regime in Iran. @UNWatch @UNHumanRights

[National Union for Democracy in Iran @NUFDIran]

Twin sisters Taraneh and Romina Rahimi were arrested by regime forces during the January 2026 uprising. They spent their 20th birthday in regime custody.

Taraneh has been sentenced to death, Romina to 36 years in prison, for "waging war against Allah."

The girls were threatened with sexual violence if they did not provide false confessions.

Taraneh's physical condition is deteriorating, and she is being denied medical care.

Be their voice.

🧵 4 years ago, 16-year-old Nika Shakarami took to the streets of Tehran during the 2022 uprising.

On September 20, she disappeared. Days later, her family learned she had been killed by security forces.

Nika became one of the defining faces of a generation that refused to remain silent.

Nika Shakarami, forever 16.
Never forgotten.

[Reza Pahlavi Communications @PahlaviComms]

Concerns over the life of Ali Zarei have mounted following his transfer to solitary confinement in GhezelHesar Prison on Monday, September 21.

Ali Zarei is a political prisoner sentenced to death who sustained an eye injury during the 2022 uprising.

Be his voice and use every possible means to save his life.

Freedom Fighter Omid Goudarzvand Chegini Faces Imminent Execution.

The Islamic Republic’s judiciary has upheld the death sentence for Omid Goudarzvand Chegini, a 37-year-old former police officer who resigned from the force prior to his arrest during the January Uprising in Qazvin.

Condemned to death on fabricated charges of "destruction of government property", allegations he has consistently denied, Omid was subjected to 40 days of solitary confinement in IRGC Intelligence custody and denied chosen legal representation in a sham trial. Currently held in Qazvin’s Choobindar Prison, he faces imminent state murder.

Be his voice before the regime claims another innocent life.

Dozens of political prisoners are currently facing execution by the Islamic Republic.

Behind every death sentence is a person, a family, and a life that could be taken away. Many of these cases have been marked by reports of forced confessions and serious concerns over due process.

These are just five of their stories.

Talking about them matters. Public attention matters. Their names must not disappear behind numbers and statistics.

Say their names. Share their stories. Make sure they are heard.

[Reza Pahlavi @PahlaviReza]

"I was pleased today to meet virtually with Coalition leaders Angus Taylor and Ted O’Brien and a number of Senators, for a constructive discussion about the situation in Iran, the aspirations of the Iranian people, and the future relationship between a free Iran and Australia. 

I am grateful to Mr. Taylor, Mr .O’Brien and their Coalition colleagues for their engagement and for their support for the Iranian people and Australia’s vibrant Iranian community. 

Our discussion focused on the horrific ongoing human rights abuses including the January massacres of over 40,000 protestors, the ongoing executions of young people, the importance of protecting Iranian-Australians from intimidation and foreign interference, and the role Australia can play in supporting the Iranian people’s ongoing fight for liberation and democracy.  

We also discussed the opportunities that could come with a free and democratic Iran. Australia has world-leading expertise in mining, energy, agriculture, education and technology. A free and prosperous Iran could become an important economic and strategic partner for Australia. I briefed Coalition members on the Iran Prosperity Project and our work to prepare now for Iran’s economic recovery and reconstruction. 

We agreed the freedom of the Iranian people should transcend party politics. I would therefore welcome the opportunity to meet Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Foreign Minister Penny Wong and other members of the Australian Government, as well as continuing my dialogue with the Coalition. 

I also look forward to visiting Australia in person, to meet political leaders from across the spectrum and, importantly, to meet members of the Iranian-Australian community. 

Australia has an opportunity to stand with the Iranian people today while beginning to build a relationship with the free, democratic and prosperous Iran of tomorrow. I am thankful that the Coalition took the first steps to do that, today."

[National Union for Democracy in Iran @NUFDIran]

Mahsa Amini's father reported that regime forces have blocked the main road leading to her resting place, as Iranians mark four years since the regime murdered her.

Four years later, the regime is still terrified of her memory and what she awakened in Iran.
