I’m an American who fell in love with a woman in Iran. We planned our future together. On February 19, 2026, we had our last conversation. Since then, war and the longest internet blackout in history have kept us completely apart. The IRGC’s blackout — now over 42 days long and the longest ever recorded — is forcing millions of Iranians into “mere existence.” Alive, but isolated. Able to breathe, but unable to connect with loved ones, access truth, or build any kind of future. This is not just politics. This is a deliberate denial of full human life. I fight every day because no one should be condemned to mere survival under fear and repression. Iran deserves so much better. We need a benevolent government that values human life, dignity, safety, and real opportunity — a future where families can be together, where love is possible, and where Iranians can thrive: safe, connected, and free. A Iran that can become modern and prosperous, like the remarkable progress we see in the UAE. End the blackout. End the executions and repression. Let Iranians live fully — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

@SecRubio Thank you for your continued focus on Iran and for strengthening international cooperation. The Iranian people are enduring their 46th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. Strong supply chain security and international pressure are important — but the ultimate goal must be the complete dismantling of the repressive system, especially the IRGC. There can be no half-measures and no “IRGC-lite.” Real victory will only come when Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

Met with Dutch Foreign Minister Berendsen today to discuss Iran and close cooperation on supply chain security.

@DrNeilStone Thank you for saying this so clearly. While the world focuses on uranium, oil, and the Strait of Hormuz, the Iranian people are enduring their 46th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. Human rights, massacres, arrests, and executions must remain at the center of any discussion — not pushed aside for a quick deal. There can be no half-measures and no “IRGC-lite.” Real victory will only come when the entire repressive system is dismantled and Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

Everyone is talking about uranium enrichment, oil prices, and the Strait of Hormuz. No one is talking about the Iranian people

@NiohBerg Thank you for saying this so clearly. Human rights, the ongoing internet blackout, massacres, arrests, and executions must be central to any negotiations — not pushed aside for a quick deal. The Iranian people are enduring their 46th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. The regime has shown time and again that it cannot be trusted with temporary concessions. There can be no half-measures and no “IRGC-lite.” Real victory will only come when the entire repressive system is dismantled and Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

Considering Trump's initial statements in January were to help the people of Iran, the issue of human rights, massacres, arrests and executions should be an OBVIOUS part of these negotiations. Of course the regime will never agree, but it's the morally right thing to demand.

@USTreasury Thank you for this clear and aggressive stance. Maximum pressure on the regime is the only language they understand. The Iranian people are enduring their 46th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. Economic pressure is important, but it must be paired with the clear goal of completely dismantling the repressive system — especially the IRGC. There can be no half-measures and no “IRGC-lite.” Real victory will only come when Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

Treasury is moving aggressively with Economic Fury, maintaining maximum pressure on Iran. Financial institutions should be on notice that the department is leveraging the full range of available tools and authorities and is prepared to deploy secondary sanctions against foreign financial institutions that continue to support Iran’s activities. The short-term authorization permitting the sale of Iranian oil already stranded at sea is set to expire in a few days and will not be renewed.

@GordafaridKaveh Exactly. The IRGC is not just one part of the regime — it is the coercive core that controls Iran. When the United States has already designated the IRGC as a Foreign Terrorist Organization, negotiating with the regime as if it were a normal government makes no sense. The Iranian people know this better than anyone. They are enduring their 46th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. There can be no half-measures and no “IRGC-lite.” Real victory will only come when the entire repressive system is dismantled and Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

Agreed. The United States has already designated the IRGC as a Foreign Terrorist Organization. If the regime’s coercive core is the IRGC, then this is not a conventional state in the usual sense. That raises a simple question: are we negotiating with a normal government, or with a system whose center of power has already been designated?

@SetaareRouztaab My heart was already wounded

@IranFullLife Thanks for your comment. 🙏❤️‍🩹 #KingRezaPahlavi‌ #DigitalBlackOutIran‌

پسر عمه عزیزم، ده روز پیش فوت کرده. 💔 سه روز توی سردخونه بوده تا گواهی فوت صادر کردن، کارهای کفن و دفن رو انجام دادن، به فامیل و آشنا زنگ زدن خبر دادن، و مراسم سوم و هفته رو در دو سه نوبت برگزار کردن…. بعد پیامی که خانواده‌م همون ده روز پیش فرستادن تا خبر فوتش رو بهم بدن، به خاطر قطعی اینترنت تو ایران امروز به دستم رسیده؛ انجام این همه کار از سرعت پیامی که باید همون لحظه به دستم می‌رسید سریع‌تر بوده. (لطفا کامنت تسلیت ننویسن، فقط از قطعی اینترنت بگین). #DigitalBlackOutIran‌ #KingRezaPahlavi‌

@potyptto Thank you for sharing this heartbreaking update from inside Iran. A new wave of arrests targeting medical staff and those who stood with the National Revolution of the Lion and Sun shows how desperately the regime is trying to silence any voice of hope. The Iranian people are enduring their 46th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. Even those who risk everything to help the sick and wounded are not spared. There can be no half-measures and no “IRGC-lite.” Real victory will only come when the entire repressive system is dismantled and Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

بنا به گذارش چند منبع موج دستگیری جدیدی از کادر درمان و کارمندهایی که در جریان انقلاب ملی شیر و خورشید شناسایی شدن در استان ها و شهرهای پیشرو در انقلاب شکل گرفته.

@LindseyGrahamSC Uncle Lindsey, thank you for your clarity and strong stance. The Iranian people do not want another temporary deal that the regime will break the moment pressure eases. They want the entire repressive system — especially the IRGC — to surrender and be completely dismantled. Right now, they are enduring their 46th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. We need this pressure to continue — but more than anything, we need real victory: a free, safe, and connected Iran for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

I hope speculation and rumors about yet another extension of the ceasefire to reach a deal with Iran are off base. To me, President Trump’s position is clear. I fear the Iranians will play the same old game they always play, dragging things out by doing things like making menial concessions. I believe the bottom line for President Trump is: - No enrichment - American control of the approximately 900 pounds of highly enriched uranium - The opening of the Strait of Hormuz without interference from Iran - Iran must abandon its long-range ballistic missile program and any effort to develop a nuclear weapon - And Iran must cease support for all terrorists proxies in the region This would allow Iran to exist as a nation but not as the largest state sponsor of terrorism. If there is no deal, it is time to finish the job.

The minutes feel like hours. Every day that passes under this 46-day blackout brings a strange mix of exhaustion and quiet anticipation. We wait — not with despair, but with determination — for the moment the IRGC’s grip finally breaks. Because the Iranian people have already endured too much. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen between fear and fragile hope. We do not want half-measures or another “IRGC-lite.” We want the entire repressive system dismantled so Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. That day is coming. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

@PahlaviReza Thank you for your tireless work on the world stage. Your visit to Rome and your clear message that the only true path forward is the liberation of Iran from the Islamic Republic gives millions of us real hope. Right now, the Iranian people are enduring their 46th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. We stand with you in calling for the complete dismantling of the repressive system — especially the IRGC — so that Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

I have arrived in Rome to meet Italian political and business leaders. I will ensure the Iranian people’s voice is not silenced and will discuss the only true path to peace, security, and prosperity for the world— the liberation of Iran from the Islamic Republic.

@Rubiesk @Rubiesk Thank you so much for your kind words and support ❤️🙏 It means a lot during these difficult days. We all pray for the day when every Iranian can finally live safely, connected, and free. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

You have my utmost sympathy and support. You deserve to live on your own terms free from dictatorship. Be safe ❤️🙏 and good luck 🍀 @IranFullLife

@PahlaviReza Thank you for your visit to Sweden and for representing the voice of millions of Iranians who long for freedom. Your presence on the world stage gives hope to those inside who are still enduring their 46th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. We pray that your diplomatic efforts help bring real, lasting pressure so the entire repressive system — especially the IRGC — can be dismantled. The Iranian people deserve to live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

Jag vill rikta ett stort tack till Sverige för det varma välkomnandet i samband med mitt besök i Stockholm och riksdagen.

@Realneo101 Thank you for speaking with such clarity and urgency. Lasting peace in the Middle East truly requires the terrorist regime in Iran to fall — no half-measures, no temporary deals that let the IRGC survive. Right now, the Iranian people are enduring their 46th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. The people inside need safe connection, clear leadership, and the space to rise in unity when the moment is right. There can be no “IRGC-lite.” Real victory will only come when the entire repressive system is completely dismantled so Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

@zazar61 Thank you for this powerful reminder. 1104 hours. 46 days. Millions of Iranians remain cut off from the world, unable to speak to their loved ones or even know if they are safe. The blackout is not just technical — it is a deliberate tool to hide the regime’s crimes and keep the people in darkness. Starlink and strong international pressure are urgently needed to reconnect families and let the truth shine through. The Iranian people have already endured too much. There can be no half-measures and no “IRGC-lite.” Real victory will only come when the entire repressive system is dismantled and Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

@elonmusk @realDonaldTrump The Islamic Regime has shut down the internet , cutting millions of Iranians off and silencing the country Starlink and urgent international pressure are needed Don’t let the regime hide its crimes. Stand with the Iranian people. #DigitalBlackOutIran‌

@FoxNews Thank you for covering this. The economic pressure is clearly tightening, and ordinary Iranians are feeling it every single day — dwindling food supplies, failing refrigeration, empty ATMs, and growing hunger. Yet many still quietly say the same painful truth: hunger is preferable to living under continued IRGC rule. The Iranian people are enduring their 45th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. We need this pressure to continue — but more than anything, we need the entire repressive system dismantled so Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

BREAKING: A senior Trump admin official tells @BillHemmer Iran is “really fearful” as the U.S. blockade squeezes its economy. “We have all the ingredients of a deal, but it’s not all there yet.” @AmericaNewsroom

@Rubiesk Thank you for your passionate words and for standing with the Iranian people. The courage inside Iran is real and deeply moving — we saw it clearly in the January protests. Yet we must be wise. The regime’s brutal crackdown in early January showed how dangerous uncoordinated uprisings can be while people are isolated and silenced by the blackout. Right now, 90 million Iranians are enduring their 45th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. The world’s support means everything — but the Iranian people need safe connection and clear leadership before any new uprising. We wait for the right moment and for Reza Pahlavi to give the call that can unify and guide a peaceful path forward. There can be no half-measures and no “IRGC-lite.” Real victory will only come when the entire repressive system is dismantled and Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

Isn’t it now the time to revolt? Only you, the people of Iran, have the right to, and can, change the regime. And the world is waiting and supporting you 🙏

@marklevinshow Thank you for speaking so forcefully and clearly. No concessions. No deals that let the regime survive in any form. Sustained pressure is the only path that can bring real change. The Iranian people are enduring their 45th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. We need this pressure to continue — but more than anything, we need the entire repressive system dismantled so Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

If reports of a 20 year ban on Iran’s enrichment are accurate, and I doubt it, that would be a terrible concession. There’s no need for any concessions.  The Iranian regime will collapse if we keep the pressure on.

@Yaldablue777 Thank you for speaking with such courage and clarity. On this Holocaust Remembrance Day, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Israel against the regime that spreads the same hatred and evil is a powerful message we all share as Iranians long for freedom. The Iranian people are enduring their 45th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. The regime is the common enemy of both the Israeli and Iranian people. There can be no half-measures and no “IRGC-lite.” Real victory will only come when the entire repressive system is dismantled and Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

Just to make it crystal clear which side we are on! Today, on Holocaust Remembrance Day, while Israel remembers the six million, Europe is busy criticizing the Jewish state instead of learning from history. As an Iranian, I've seen the face of real evil — the same hatred the regime in Tehran spreads. That's why I proudly stand with Israel. 🇮🇱 The Islamic regime is the enemy of both our peoples — and history will remember who chose the right side. #StandWithIsrael #IranianForIsrael #KingRezaPahlaviForIran

@WarMonitor3 Thank you for reminding us of Mossad’s long-standing commitment to regime change in Iran. This goal has been publicly discussed by Mossad leadership for some time, with assessments shared in the lead-up to recent events. The Iranian people are enduring their 45th consecutive day of the longest internet blackout in history. Loved ones remain separated. Everyday voices stay silenced. Daily life is frozen in fear and isolation. We need sustained pressure to continue — but more than anything, we need the entire repressive system dismantled so Iranians can finally live safely, connected, and free — for the first time in 47 years. #IranFullLife #EndTheBlackout

Israelis intelligence agency Mossad under its new head has pledged its main operational goal is to initiate regime change in Iran at it will not stop until this goal is complete.
