Mehdi Hasan is a terrorist regime sympathizer. Do not fall for his Islamist rhetoric.

Be salamati pirooozi mardome Iran (Cheers to the victory of the people of Iran). I am so proud of my Iranian identity and in awe of my compatriots’ bravery, courage, and unwavering fight. Free Iran. #freeiran #iranrevolution

Being an Iranian-American is complicated. There is a lot of guilt. What did I do to be fortunate enough to have the freedom to do & say as I please. I didn’t earn any of this good fortune but I benefit from it. People in Iran aren’t asking for much. Just basic human rights. #IranRevolution2026

KU brought it at home. Now we gotta do this on the road. Win the next two in the road before a massive test vs BYU. Getting conference road wins is what this squad needs for confidence and truly be legit .

Back to back home blowout wins is such a great sight to see! Much needed feel good.

If an Iran “expert” on mainstream media focuses endlessly on sanctions, economy, rarely criticizes the regime by name, and redirects blame toward the US/Israel instead of acknowledging the Iranian people’s demand for regime change, chances are they’re a reformist and/or a regime lobbyist.

I’ll say this again, if your opposition to imperialism, the U.S., or Israel outweighs your concern for human rights and the value of thousands of lives lost, you’re not an activist, you’re in inhumane asshole

Islamic Republic has killed 12,000 Iranians fighting for freedom in a span of days. Primarily on Jan 8th & 9th. This is a massacre. The people have zero chance without support. I fear without outside intervention, Iran becomes Syria. The regime wrote the Assad playbook.

I have gotten to a point that as much as I hate this current US administration, my love for freedom and human rights in my homeland of Iran, outweighs my hate for this President. 💚🤍❤️

Interesting how she’s an “activist” for one cause but completely silent on Iranians fighting an authoritarian regime. She never cared about human rights. just like every other fake far left “activist”. Only empathetic when it benefits them. That’s not activism, it’s called being a grifter.

Long love my courageous, brave, beautiful compatriots fighting for freedom in Iran. 💚🤍❤️

Iranian women are badass

Still have no idea how we won that game but somehow, someway, we did. The power of Allen Fieldhouse is undefeated. I hope we can build off an improbable win like this.

The NY Times is among the absolute worst outlets at covering Iran. One reason is because their lead Iran reporter, Farnaz Fassihi, is part of the NIAC (National Iranian American Council), aka Islamic Republic’s lobby. She is their mouthpiece through US media spreading their propaganda.

Being an Iranian-American is conflicting. The things I stand for domestically do not at all align globally with what will help the ppl of my homeland achieve freedom. This is why while I lean left in America, I’m more of a centrist with global issues. It’s all so complicated & complex.

Something people in US need to understand is it’s not always about you. I can’t stand Trump either but you can’t let the disdain for him to equate to a lack of empathy. Who knows what the future holds for Venezuela but for today, they deserve to rejoice and I’m in complete support of their joy 🇻🇪

I was giving Peterson the benefit of the doubt. I was on the side of let him get healthy and we’ll be ok but today kinda broke that thought process. Who knows what’s going on behind the scenes but it’s weird as hell. I’m not even mad at him as I am how his camp is able to have this much control

It would be nice if all the people who yell Free Palestine, Free Congo, Free Sudan, Free Venezuela…etc, would also have the same energy to stand up for a Free Iran. A country that has been occupied and my people oppressed by a terrorist regime for 47 years. #FreeIran

Merry New Year!

The gist of why Iranians are out in masses protesting is the ppl are fed up. The micro is economic turmoil but the macro is they are protesting against this abhorrent Islamic regime. They are chanting anti regime slogans. millions of us Iranians want this regime out of our lives forever.

I get why Williams went to NC State. I know we got outbid for him and yeah it’d be nice to have his offense but im not sure how he’d fit in our team of misfit dawgs. He fits Will Wade. He a hoe just like Wade is.

Cheers to Melvin! If you ain’t a dawg, you dawg food .

Big time win today! KU has not had a true road win against a top 40 Kenpom team since we beat TCU in 2023!

NC st is not a big team or a good rim protecting team. They also have a high foul rate on the season. Shooting all these threes without moving the ball is a bailout. Attack the basket, draw fouls.

Wolfpack are blitzing DP, making him give up the ball and forcing our other guys beat them. We need other guys to step up. This is a fake we’ll need Tre.

The KU game at NC State tomorrow is gonna be extremely tough. Wolfpack aren’t a big team but they’re balanced, can really score and force turnovers. Keys will be to take care of the ball, rebound and show poise in a true road game. they’re gonna be amped to play.

Offense will be a struggle all year but our defense has the potential to be elite. Mizzou is a really good offensive team. They had not had a game where they scored less than 71 all year. We held them to 60.

Tre White drawing fouls is hilarious. He’s skilled at it. That’s what we didn’t get from him on Tuesday night.

Mizzou is flat out more aggressive so far. We’re sleepwalking a bit

Rebounding is an issue. We play great first shot defense but get out hustled for rebounds. We’re simply not skilled enough to get outworked for rebounds.

Our offense is a struggle. We don’t get Flory involved enough. In Vegas we played so well because he was getting touches and doing a good job being aggressive or passing to the open guy.

Goodness gracious Iran is playing Egypt in Seattle! I have to find a way to get tickets. Going to a WC is on my sports bucket list. Having your country of birth play in a World Cup 25 min from your home is once in a lifetime.

The USMNT got a cakewalk of a draw in the World Cup. They have no excuse not to advance. Iran’s group is totally doable. We won’t win it but it’s as good as we can ask for. We have a shot as long as we win one and tie the other! 💚🤍❤️

#kubball fans dissecting, speculating, reading between the lines on every single word that comes out of Self’s mouth about Peterson’s availability. youtube.com/shorts/LK-sg...

KU fans have gotta stop using fan sensibilities to create blanket theories on Peterson’s availability. Just cuz you’d play at so and so percent healthy doesn’t mean a generational talent with hundreds of millions on the line would do the same. It’s not as black and white as fans make it.

We have a great effort against an elite team. That game was there for the taking but we just couldn’t execute. This is where we miss DP.

Something UConn does better than just about anyone is execute by getting easy buckets.

We’re most likely not winning this but these guys fight.

As bad as the offense has been, the bigger reason we’re gonna lose this is not finishing out possessions by getting the rebound. Second chance points have killed any momentum.

We really need more from Tre White.

We missed our opportunity. It feels like we should be up 6-8 but we’re down. I’m surprised Bill didn’t call a TO when the lead got cut to 1

Dammit, we’re leaving a lot of points out there. We could be up 8-12 with better execution.

My concern for the second half is if we have enough offense. I don’t think we can rely on McDowell and Elmarko to his 4 3s again. We really need to hit some of these shots at the rim. UConn is bound to make more shots. They get high quality shots.

I like the aggressiveness but damn we missed so many opportunities to add to that lead. In fairness, UConn has missed some shots too

The biggest difference with Elmarko is confidence. He’s not over thinking things, he’s just playing.
