Shocking…
This is Taraneh Alidoosti. The actress who represented Iranian cinema to the world, the star of the film that won the Oscar. What did she do? She posted one photo without the hijab during Woman Life Freedom uprising in 2022 to show her solidarity with the People of Iran .
That is all. She said no to executions, no to the crackdown. That same week they came to her home and took her to Evin prison. When she was released, she was no longer the same Taraneh. Doctors diagnosed her with a rare illness that made her skin fall off and ravaged her body. She is still under treatment.
They say it was caused by drug interaction. Which drugs? What did they give her in that prison? No one answers. Today this photo is going viral across Iran because people want to see the price of one photo without hijab. To the regime it was just a photo.
To us, Taraneh is a woman who gave up everything: her career, her cinema, her health. And even now, in silence, mourning her father, she has not bowed. Taraneh, you did not just remove the hijab. You tore off their mask. We are your voice.

🚨 PARAGUAY 🇵🇾 RIOTS IN THE STREETS AFTER 3 MILLION PEOPLE GOT LOCKED OUT OF THEIR OWN MONEY
The central bank shut down Ueno Bank, one of the biggest banks in the country.
3 million customers. About 60% of all adults in Paraguay.
Salaries. Pensions. Savings. FROZEN.
No app. No cards. No ATMs.
Even $380 million of the state pension fund is stuck inside.
Covid locked people inside their homes. This locked them out of their own money.
Then it turned POLITICAL.
President Santiago Peña, the right-wing friend of Milei and Kast, was a SHAREHOLDER in Ueno's holding company until 2025.
And the man he picked to run the central bank in 2023 used to run Ueno.
Within 24 hours:
• the central bank chief signed his resignation after Peña asked for it
• Ueno's CEO handed himself in to police, 5 more executives DETAINED
• crowds in central Asunción demanding Peña's exit
• the opposition pushing to impeach him
The last time Paraguay's banks broke, in 1995, more than half of them went down.
If you want the parts of this story Paraguay's government would rather you never heard, follow me.

⚡️BREAKING: Israeli opposition leaders are calling for Netanyahu’s immediate removal following Donald Trump’s defeat in the midterm elections
Yair Golan, leader of the Democratic Party—which is part of the Israeli opposition—claims that Netanyahu has damaged relations between the parties. They believe that by siding entirely with the Republicans, he has alienated the Democratic Party
Now that the Democrats have come to power, Washington could exert significant pressure or restrict military aid if Israel does not remove Netanyahu from office

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The U.S. is reportedly deploying one of its RAREST and most strategically important intelligence aircraft to the Middle East.
The RC-135U Combat Sent is no ordinary spy plane.
Only TWO are in the U.S. Air Force inventory worldwide.
Its mission is to detect, identify and analyze enemy radar emissions, helping U.S. forces understand how hostile air defense systems operate.
It gathers the electronic intelligence that can help other aircraft operate against sophisticated defenses.
Worth keeping an eye on... 👀

With them controlling both chambers of Congress, they can repeal much of that bill.

Trump allies blame the eight-month Iran war, rising energy prices and its failure to achieve a decisive outcome for widespread Republican midterm losses. Some White House officials now call the war misguided, with internal discussions emerging over possible personnel changes, per WSJ
In a phone interview with the Journal, Trump said “Iran was a piece of it” when asked about the losses but stated he has no regrets: “I don’t think about it. I did the right thing. I would have done it again.”
