Update: the 12 year old girl I mentioned in this story who was hunted down by an Israeli drone has died from her injuries.


NEW: US military just carried out strikes on Iran’s Qeshm Port and Bandar Abbas: Senior US official tells me, but this is NOT a restarting of the war. MORE


It's one thing for Democrats to downgrade the US-Israel relationship, as Democrats, Independents, and younger Republicans demand. It's another thing to become a singularly Israel-focused party. @james_billot argues. unherd.com/2026/05/dems-i…



Pahlavi pointed to international demonstrations as evidence of Iranian backing: "Why don't you ask them why they continue to support me? Why don't you ask them when they come by the hundreds of thousands in demonstrations from Sydney to Vancouver to Munich and Berlin?"






How did we get to the point Where so many Americans are rooting against America?




BREAKING: Following my report and follow up with the US State Department in which I exposed the fact that Qasem Soleimani’s Niece Hamideh Soleimani Afshar has been living in the United States (Los Angeles, California) where she posts pro-Iranian regime and pro-IRGC content on her social media while she lives a life of luxury, the US State Department and @SecRubio have just revoked her green card and she has been picked up by ICE. She has been arrested and will be deported back to Iran! According to the official @StateDept press release, “Last night, the niece and grand niece of deceased Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps Major General Qasem Soleimani were arrested by federal agents following Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s termination of their lawful permanent resident (LPR) status. Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter are now in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. As identified by both press reporting and her own social media commentary, Soleimani Afshar is an outspoken supporter of the totalitarian, terrorist regime in Iran. In addition to the termination of Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter’s LPR status, Afshar’s husband has also been barred from entering the United States.” Over the last few months, I have quietly been documenting all of Hamideh Soleimani Afshar’s social media activity. I uploaded it all to a secure file and shared it with DHS and Department of State, and now she has been arrested and she will be deported from our country. Thank you, @potus @SecRubio @marcorubio @ASDylanJohnson! state.gov/releases/offic…




We, @AAIRIA_Org, welcome the decision by the President of the University of Arkansas to move forward with the dismissal of Shirin Saeidi. This outcome did not happen in a vacuum. For over five years, we at AAIRIA have worked to document, expose, and raise concerns about individuals in Western academic institutions who use their positions to whitewash, normalize, or directly support elements of the Islamic Republic of Iran. In this case, former political prisoners whose testimonies were cited in Saeidi’s work came forward to state clearly that they were never interviewed by her. Some of the individuals named in her research have been found to be non-existent. These findings raise serious concerns that her dissertation and subsequent book are not grounded in legitimate research, but instead reflect a combination of plagiarism and fabricated material, produced in alignment with narratives promoted by the Islamic Republic’s propaganda apparatus. AAIRIA was among the first to bring forward documentation and evidence, and we consistently called on the university to take these issues seriously. This decision shows that sustained, evidence-based advocacy can lead to institutional accountability. Universities must remain places of integrity, not platforms for laundering the narratives of regimes responsible for systematic repression and mass atrocities. This is a step in the right direction. @UArkansas #FireSaeidi
