Protests in Iran continue. Reportedly, this is the main market in Tehran.

Iran plunged into internet blackout as protests over economy spread nationwide

The scale of the protests in Iran are absolutely unbelievable. Hard to quantify, but I've seen some speculation that this uprising is more significant than the 2023 protests (themselves the largest challenge to the regime since it came into power in '79.) (Video from @AmirMiresmaeili on Twitter)

Protests already on the streets across Iran.

Protests in Iran continue.

It's all swamp, so it's impossible to drain. Plus, I like to dream bigger...

Masked government agents are killing people in the streets, abducting people from their homes in the middle of the night, and arresting those who speak out. If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

Today marks 15 years since Gabby Giffords was shot at a constituent meeting, in an attack that killed 6 and wounded 13. I am proud to cosponsor a bipartisan, bicameral resolution to honor the victims and their families today, and recommit to ending gun and political violence.

#UkrainianView If someone, by some misunderstanding, thinks that Iranian regime is "good", I will remind you that Iran supplied "Shaheds" to russians. Shaheds are commonly used for attacks on residential buildings. So, yeah. I hope that by whatever miracle and effort, people of Iran will succeed.🔽

Ironic that trump is threatening Iran for shooting protesters Can we some help here

The police in Iran were pushed back but when they retreated, the IRGC military forces replaced them. Tousi TV is the only media covering this in this kind of detail. They’re reporting that the protesters will not retreat. #IranProtests

Iran silences voices with a nationwide internet blackout as protests surge in 50 cities, claiming 45 lives including 8 children amid live-fire crackdowns and statue-toppling defiance. #IranProtests

Iran protests swell nationwide as crackdown intensifies and internet is cut

Welp, shit is kicking off in Iran

Footage coming out of Iran is incredible. I have zero ways of verifying it, so will leave it to others to share once they verify it. Huge protests. I really hope this tips the scales in favour of the people of Iran. 47 years is a very long time.

Well who would have imagined the USA and Iran swapping places in one week...? USA meanwhile threatens Iran with what will happen "and it won't be good" if you shoot peaceful protesters (in the face or otherwise)

Rep. Jeffries @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and Sen. Schumer @schumer.senate.gov are definitely not acting like leaders. What will it take for them to stand up? "Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries denounce the killing but offer no concrete pledges."

Some good news for a change... House passes bill to extend Affordable Care Act subsidies in defiance of GOP leaders... 17 Republicans joined the Democrats in passing the House... Now on to the Senate... apnews.com/article/hous...

Strong data privacy protections are critical to protecting communities from ICE. The MA Senate passed a data privacy bill in the fall. The House needs to take action. #mapoli

Syria. Iran. Soon Russia and Trump's regime. Corrupt dictatorships are just a house of cards. They dig their own graves.

Just a reminder to everyone that Iranian revolutionaries are everywhere in the west in the diaspora. I met with a group in London today. There are generations waiting to return home who would be dead or in prison now if they were back in Iran.

Meanwhile, the regime in Iran is about to collapse

The protests in Iran began with women resisting the regime. Now it's about to fall. America is at the start of that cycle.

If you're a Trumpist Christian nationalist brown shirt, you can probably watch the Iran protests and just spike your shit and go home, because whatever Trump and those assholes are going to put into their authoritarian vision, it's way less than the Iranian government, which is going up in smoke.

would be amusing if Iran and the USA have popular revolutions in the same year

tfw you see out of context images of kitted out paramilitary guys firing tear gas at a large protest and you aren't sure whether they're coming from the US or Iran

Iran taking to the streets. Maduro kidnapped. ICE/DHS murdering citizens. NATO being ripped apart from the inside. Taiwan security guarantees abandoned. Ukraine under constant bombardment. All this in less than a year.

BREAKING NEWS Reports from Iran: "Tehran is effectively out of the government's control at this very moment." #aurefreepress #News #press #headline #Breaking #breakingnews #Iran

This may not be the most thrilling video of what’s happening tonight in Iran, but it’s special to me. People are chanting: “Death to the Islamic Republic.”

Massive protests continue in Iran. Some videos suggest security forces becoming more sympathetic to protesters, waving and chanting with them. A group of lawyers with the bar association in Fars province resigned en masse. Flags have been burnt. It seems protesters are gaining momentum!

An internet and telephone blackout is underway across Iran after a week of protests over the deteriorating economy. Some demonstrations have escalated into riots, and other movements have joined in and pile unto the mountain of grievances against the regime. #IranProtests

In the midst of massive anti-regime protests, Iran’s govt has completely disconnected the country from the global Internet. www.kentik.com/analysis/ira...

And for similar good result in protests of the murder of Renee Good by government ICE goons.

I hope for all the best for the people of Iran in their struggle against totalitarianism.

My feed is currently full of photos of simultaneous protests against the regime in both Iran and the U.S.

A democratic Iran will be hostile to the USA, and the reasons they will have for it will be *extremely* sympathetic.

As protests swelled around the country, Iran’s internet was shut down, and the heads of its judiciary and its security services warned of a harsh response amid calls for “freedom, freedom.” www.nytimes.com/2026/01/08/w...

Iran and Cuba on the verge of collapse. Syria liberated. America soon liberated in a Fourth American Revolution.

For much more on the Iran protests, see this interview I published with Tara Kangarlou on Tuesday:

Less than 1% of the Epstein files have been released. Millions of pages still hidden past the legal deadline and instead of transparency, Trump is launching military threats and interventions (Venezuela, Colombia, Cuba, Iran, Greenland) to distract the public.. what next , WW3 🤔🤬

Trump warned Iran that if Tehran "violently kills peaceful protesters" the U.S. "will come to their rescue." Meanwhile, in the US, ICE is killing US citizens who protest with Trump's complete approval.

IDF has begun serious consultations regarding the situation in Iran, as the protests appear more widespread and organized than in past episodes. Israeli officials are also expressing concern over the risk of miscalculation.-Ch 12

Hey Americans, want to see actual freedom in action? Or is it too humbling? Go Iran. The world is watching.

Iran has cut off its internet as protests calling for regime change intensify. The heads of its judiciary and security services warned of a harsh response amid calls for “freedom, freedom.” (NYT)
