Today at the final of the World Cup, I only hope the players on the field and the whole world remembers that there’s a man and fellow footballer called Amir Nasr, on death row, only for speaking in favor of Women’s rights. pic.twitter.com/VdMicGVaml

Iran players chose not to sing their country’s national anthem before their opening World Cup match against England, in an apparent show of support for protesters back home.

In the last 8 weeks Iran’s regime has killed over 300 protestors, imprisoned nearly 15,000, and threatened to execute hundreds more, yet Iran’s women persist. Today female university students removed their forced hejab and chant, “I am a free woman.” pic.twitter.com/OjQZ6zHfG5

I am deeply disturbed that the Iranian regime is sentencing protestors to death. I continue to stand with the Iranian people in their fight for freedom, and I echo calls for the Biden Administration to tighten sanctions and hold the regime accountable. https://t.co/QD0vozTysh

This is horrifying. The Iranian parliament votes overwhelmingly (227-63) to execute the 15,000 protesters they already arrested.

These were peaceful protestors simply seeking the right to basic justice and autonomy. Unacceptable and barbaric.https://t.co/7mMd2hIwTb

The Dire Consequences of Trump’s Suleimani Decision

Trump has managed to get disparate groups inside #Iran who have little to otherwise agree on to rally around the flag.

Millions of Iranians are out on the streets now to commend and mourn a commander of the same Revolutionary Guard which cracked down on major unrest weeks ago. pic.twitter.com/cWw47DNn7e
