YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

At least 22 people are dead and hundreds have been arrested, as Iranian authorities move to quell the largest antigovernment protests since 2009. President Donald Trump responded to the protests on Monday in one of his first tweets of the new year, writing ”TIME FOR CHANGE!” “This is the same president who, not more than three months ago, announced a ban on Iranians from coming to the United States,” says Pulitzer Prizewinning reporter Glenn Greenwald. “He’s somebody who has aligned with the world’s worst, most savage dictators.”
