A January 6th defendant was “viciously and savagely” beaten by a guard in a Washington, D.C. jail and may lose sight in one eye because of his injuries, one of his lawyers told the CBS affiliate in the city, WUSA-TV in April of 2022.
Ryan Samsel is accused of pushing over barriers and knocking down a police officer – causing her to suffer a concussion – on January 6, 2021, and he has recently been transferred to a different prison, according to court documents.
Samsel is from Bristol, Pennsylvania, in Bucks County, CBS Philadelphia. News went viral about the attack in April, but the news is being circulated again this week due to the update on Samsel’s case.
Samsel has been in federal custody since his arrest in January on charges of ‘forcibly assaulting or interfering with a federal agent, obstructing an official proceeding and obstructing an officer’.
He was transferred on Monday.

Another defendant, Ronald Sandlin, told a federal judge during a bail hearing that Samsel was one of a number of defendants in the case who’d been subjected to violence by D.C. correctional officers.
In an interview with WUSA, Elisabeth Pasqualini said Samsel was “viciously and savagely” beaten by a corrections officer in the D.C. Correctional Treatment Facility after the guard zip-tied Samsel’s hands.

In the March 2021 attack, Samsel reportedly suffered a head strike and loss of consciousness, bilateral eye ecchymosis, acute kidney injury, injury of the wrists, fracture of the orbital floor, bilateral facial bilateral nasal bone fracture, and thoracic outlet syndrome.
“Ultimately, as a result of the brutal assault, Mr. Samsel lost vision in his right eye, has suffered seizures, and has continuing pain and suffering in relation to the thoracic outlet syndrome as well as a cystic condition (that may have been aggravated in the assault), and a general lack of follow up care, and rehabilitative care,” Samsel’s attorneys said.
Samsel’s attorney asked the court to not allow a further delay for an outside medical evaluation for the 38-year-old man.
UPDATE
Recent court actions involving Samsel include his transfer from Federal Detention Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to the Bureau of Prisons facility in Lewsiburg, Pennsylvania.:

CBS News reported April 2022, that , Pasqualini said she was only alerted to the alleged attack when two attorneys representing other defendants contacted her and said her client had gotten “a beatdown” by a guard and was in the hospital.
“He has definitely suffered serious injuries, including a shattered orbital floor, a broken orbital bone, his jaw was broken, his nose was broken,” Pasqualini said, adding that Samsel is currently unable to see out of his right eye and may permanently lose vision in it.
Even before the alleged assault, Pasqualini said, her client was being held in lockdown for 23 hours a day and was having a hard time getting access to hygiene supplies and the shower. She said he’s since been moved to another jail, where he remains under lockdown.
Pasqualini said she reported the alleged assault to jail officials, who told her they were conducting an internal investigation. She also reported it to the FBI which, she said, told her it was investigating, as well.
A spokesperson for the FBI’s Washington Field Office told WUSA in an emailed statement that the agency was aware of the allegations but that “as a matter of policy we can neither confirm nor deny the existence of an investigation.”
According to CBS affiliate- WUSA9- they also reached out to the D.C. Department of Corrections for comment but hadn’t received a response.
Samsel isn’t the first J6 defendant to allege poor conditions during confinement, though his allegations are the most serious.
Last month, alleged Oath Keeper organizer Thomas Caldwell was released on bond in part because, his lawyer said, he’s been confined to a wheelchair as a result of not having access to orthopedic treatment while in custody.
Pasqualini said she doesn’t currently plan to file a motion asking for Samsel’s release because the state of Pennsylvania has a detainer on him due to his status as a parolee on January 6.
Records show Samsel is on parole for an assault conviction from 2016 in Pennsylvania and that there’s a separate warrant for his arrest related to an alleged 2019 assault in New Jersey.
Slamming the Democrats during a House Oversight Committee Spet. 20, Rep. Michael Cloud (R-TX) and Rep. James Comer (R-KY) spoke about Hunter Biden and the obvious fact that everyone sees- and the administrative state and their media are ignoring- crimes have obviously been committed:
“My colleague forgot to mention the dog collars hearing that we had here during the baby formula shortage, the electric tractor hearing we’ve had in other committees, the relentless pursuit of football teams in this committee and also the begging of energy companies to stop producing energy leading into an energy crisis in the world,” Cloud said, adding:
“And You know, that’s I don’t think the laser focus at the American people are looking for and I think that’s why was he a change here very soon,” he said, handing the mic off to Comer, who said:
“I’m giving the Democrats every opportunity on this committee to say that Hunter Biden was not influence peddling with our advisory, and I’m hearing nothing but crickets. The fact that we’re hearing Cricket shows that we need to provide oversight and we need to conduct investigations. Look, we’re not asking first tax return. You all sued and won, which by the way, I support.
I’m glad you won that lawsuit getting Trump tax returns. I think every President should disclose their taxes, so that’s great. But they don’t have to disclose their taxes. You sued to get that we’re not asking for any information that wasn’t available to any of us before Joe Biden came in and changed the rules.
I have experience in banking. Banks don’t just issue suspicious activity reports on the Fly. No Bank wants to issue one; let me tell you why as someone who’s a fourth-generation Banker. When the bank issues that suspicious activity report, you’re inviting the bank examiners to come in your bank. Nobody wants the bank examiners in the bank any more than they’re already going to be there.
And you’re not gonna do that with anybody. Suppose any member of Congress had a questionable transaction. In that case, I’m confident that bank, whether it’s a little Community Bank like I was involved in or Wells Fargo, which by the way, gave Hunter Biden several suspicious activity reports- are going to call us first and say, hey, Mr. Raskins you just got this crazy wire from Syria in your account for two million dollars. Can you explain to us what that was? Because, you know, there are rules against doing business with some of these countries, we have embargoes again. They’re not going to issue these to the son of the sitting Vice President of the United States unless they’re pretty darn confident.
Topher, a Hip-Hop music artist, appeared on the Pete Santilli show on Monday to talk about his inspiration for his Patriotic Conservative Christen music, his great successes, and his support of President Donald J. Trump- all of that which runs deep in his life.
“Dude, I love your music,” Santilli said after playing a couple of Topher Town music tracks called The Patriot. “I released that song on Dec. 19th and then performed it for Veterans For Trump on Jan. 6th- which was at a site away from the Capitol, so I wasn’t at the Capitol building, but I was performing my song in DC at that time people were there, so that was kind of weird,” Topher said.
The Christian rappers are resonating with the MAGA crowd- so they are being hidden from the public.
“We Patriot Christian rappers are being censored now like NWA was back in the 80s, and all we are trying to do is bring the news to the streets and reflect the actual reality to the people,” Topher told Santilli, sitting in front of a couple of Billboard posters, talking about his motivation for keeping his style even as he is being shut out of some of the perks of the music business.
Topher is a member of ‘Space Force,’ whose tune- ‘Let’s Go Brandon‘ was a chartbuster. Topher with two other Christian rappers, The Marine Rapper, and D-Cure, formed the group ironically, nd got together at the same time Trump started his Space Force. It was a fitting name for them- all three artists have served in the US Military.
Here is what Toper talked about:
RALLY AT THE US CAPITOL
Topher talked about his military service and spoke to Santilli about participating on Jan. 6th, saying,” I was stoked. I’ve never been around so many people; the actual count wa,,s well, over a million. So you just had to be there to see the people there. It was a sea of people; somehow,, I made my way to the VIP, up in the front. Well, I got to see everybody on the front stage giving their speeches,, and it was a beautiful thing. You know, they probably won’t talk about it, but it was black-white people from all races, all cultures,, all languages just there to support President Trump. And if it wasn’t for malicious attacks and just false narratives being pushed by the media, no media, I guarantee you Trump would have won by a landslide, and I genuinely believe he did once again do that.”
ON UKRAINE
“It just didn’t turn out that way, and we have got to do better about going forward. This country is going down fast, and it’s going down bad. I just heard they announced another 12 billion dollars is going to Ukraine.
You know, hundreds of billions to Ukraine, and we need money for more Americans. I know we had a Water Crisis here in Mississippi, and I haven’t heard anything about a billion dollars in here to help with their infrastructure. It just goes to show that Ukraine has something on the, on our presidency, which we know they do- for them to continue to get this amount of money and have nothing to show for it.”
ON J6 PRISONERS
So it’s just like you, man. I’m just; I feel bad for the political prisoners.
CHRISTIAN FAITH
“I am pro-family, pro-God, pro-2A, and I voted for my values, but I was not prepared for the blowback. I dig in deeper the more they try to pull me out. I voted for the first time in 2016. I started questioning things when I was young when I asked my Mom why she voted Democrat. That did not fill my hunger for knowledge. When I started looking for the symptoms, I realized it was the Democrats who did those things.
ON RAP- CLEAN MUSIC
You want to hear what Topher has to say about his genre of music and other Christian-Patriot Hip-Hop artists.

September 27, 2022 at 06:40AM EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Paul Gosar Tells TGP About The New GOP’s Plan For A REAL J6 Investigation And Securing The Southern Border – “Democrats And Biden Are The Party Of DEATH” (VIDEO)
Rep. Paul Gosar (left) Trump-Endorsed AZ Gubernatorial Nominee Kari Lake (right)
The Gateway Pundit sat down with GOP Congressman Paul Gosar over the weekend to discuss the new Republican Party’s agenda to conduct a real January 6 investigation, lower inflation, and secure the southern border after the 2022 Midterm elections.
The Gateway Pundit has reported extensively on the sham January 6 committee’s coverup of the Stolen 2020 Presidential Election, the FBI’s involvement on January 6, and their targeting of good Americans across the country.
Some questions TGP still has: Who is Ray Epps? Why did he encourage Trump supporters to go into the Capitol on January 6? And why were Democratic lawmakers defending this guy?
We need a real, factual investigation into what happened on January 6. Rep Gosar states that they have some “new tools” to work with to get to the bottom of it. “We owe it to those men and women that are held behind from J6,” says Gosar.
The Gateway Pundit has also reported on the wide open border and the resulting illegal immigration and fentanyl crises which are killing Americans and destroying the state of Arizona.
Fentanyl is now the leading cause of death for Americans 18-45 years old.
Over 4.9 million illegals entered the United States during Joe Biden’s first 18 months in office via the open southern US border.
Recently, we reported that police seized over one million fentanyl pills in a single home in Avondale, Arizona. Police are calling this “the single largest fentanyl seizure in Phoenix police history.”
The synthetic opioid is 50-100 times stronger than morphine, and this was likely enough to kill millions of people.
But Joe Biden and the Democrats couldn’t care less.
Trump-Endorsed Gubernatorial Nominee Kari Lake has vowed to declare an invasion at the southern border on day one as Governor to stop the criminal illegal aliens that are saturating our Country with lethal drugs.
Read Lake’s full plan to defend Arizona from the deadly invasion here.
“you look at the Democratic Party and Joe Biden, they’re the party of death,” Gosar said.
Rep. Paul Gosar told The Gateway Pundit correspondent Jordan Conradson:
Conradson: The midterms are coming up. Americans are sick and tired of the Democrats and their disastrous policies. What is the new GOP going to be when we take back power?
Gosar: Well, we put out some tenants that are safe for the environment, the economy, getting immigration under control, and safety. That’s the four tenants that we’re trying to really get people to know that we’re going to be different than the Democrats. I mean, inflation is running rampant. You’re seeing people spend money to have higher crimes to pay more for things. And they have shortages of them, and they’re not safe, and we have an open border.
Conradson: can we expect a real investigation into January 6?
Gosar: Well, we should. I mean, we’ve now figured out that we have some new tools to work with. You know, these resolutions of inquiry, where we actually put them in. they can be very narrow in focus, they can be very wide in focus, and they have 10 days in which to move them through the committee, or else they go to the floor. So, we’re getting some of these. We did hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin and energy and commerce. We just did the Mar-a-Lago raid, the papers on the Mar-a-Lago raid. So, when we get in control, we will be familiar with them and ready to rock and roll. We have to, I mean, we have to. And we also ought to be taking our first step in making sure we have all the federal buildings identified with longitude and latitude, put those under the federal jurisdiction of government oversight in Congress, and deed the rest of Washington DC back to Maryland. We’ve already set the precedent with Virginia some time back, so why not get this over with?
Conradson: Would that include some inquiries into the FBI’s involvement on the Capitol on January 6?
Gosar: We actually did Ray Epps, and it turned into field day. And basically, the Democrats are actually supporting and defending Ray Epps, if you can believe that. We owe it to those men and women that are held behind from J6.
Conradson: We have millions coming across our southern border into our state. Just recently, they found a million fentanyl pills in Avondale, Arizona. What would you say about the border in comparison to Trump and Biden?
Gosar: Well, I mean, there’s no comparison. We had basically operational control of the whole border, or we had a trickle of people coming in under Donald Trump. And this administration is wide open. In fact, just this month alone, over 78 people, terrorists, have been found crossing the border. Now, think if you caught every one of every two, and probably one of every five, think of how many terrorist cells are in this country, and now you’re going to compound the problem with fentanyl, now with another drug coming out in the marketplace that’s now 10 times more potent than fentanyl; it’s just starting to show up across the country and on our border. So this is out of control. We lost over 100,000 people to fentanyl overdoses last year, over 100,000. We have human smuggling going right and left. Just this last year, and we still have a month to go, 2.1 million illegals and almost a million got-aways that’s the same population like San Francisco coming in.
Conradson: On day one of Kari Lake’s administration, she has vowed to shut the border down and declare an invasion. What are you looking forward to with Kari Lake?
Gosar:Picking the fight, defending Arizona. The Federal government promised us protection from an invasion. They guaranteed it — Article Four Section Four. If she does what she’s talking about, that picks the fight. And what that does is that sends that to the Court, the Supreme Court, so we get a ruling. Maybe we can force that jurisdiction there. Maybe Congress will actually use letters of marque and reprisal. Maybe what they’ll do is to define the cartels are anti-American and are terrorists, and put bounties on their head. Shun the FBI and law enforcement to do their job.
Conradson: does Joe Biden even care about the dead Americans, the dead American children, men and women that are losing their lives to this drug crisis and illegal immigration crisis?
Gosar: Well, you look at the Democratic Party and Joe Biden, they’re the party of death. From abortion to overdosing and pills to the deaths of trafficking human beings. I mean, they’re literally littering the whole desert coming across. You look at the border towns, the borders are stocked full. That’s no way to treat people. And we have to bring this under control. There’s no right way, there’s a wrong way, and what this Biden administration is doing is all wrong.
Within months after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, some in the US media began to question, “Where is Edward Snowden? Whistleblower Silent Since Russia Invaded Ukraine” – as one April Newsweek headline read. The Ukraine offensive had clearly put the NSA whistleblower in a deeply awkward position, and thus he went relatively silent on Twitter. The Russian government had provided him asylum since he fled there from Hong Kong in June of 2013 – as he was a “wanted” man for exposing illegal mass domestic spying by the NSA and US intelligence.
On Monday, Russian state media is out with an explosive headline and new development regarding Snowden’s fate: “Putin signs decree granting Snowden Russian citizenship,” according to state-run RIA Novosti. TASS too is reporting that Putin has given Edward Snowden Russian citizenship.
Per the official Russian presidential decree…
“In accordance with paragraph ‘a’ of Article 89 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, I decide: to accept the following persons in the citizenship of the Russian Federation: Edward Joseph Snowden, born June 21, 1983, in the United States of America.”
This is absolutely huge development and big and hugely consequential Kremlin thumb in the eye to Washington at a moment the two sides are inching closer to direct confrontation and war in Ukraine.
Pete Santilli, host of the Pete Santilli show, had a number of controversial topics on his mind on Monday and just ‘let it all hang out’ on his morning show, speaking boldly about news where he is disappointed with President Donald J. Trump.
“I am about to turn on President Trump. Kevin McCarthy took almost a million dollars from a candidate who Trump endorsed. Where is Trump? He needs to have a rally in this guy’s backyard and we have nothing,” Santilli said, all fired up.
“We got nothing from the Republicans, so screw you guys. I am turning on the whole Republican Party and start the bozo the clown party. We can get a response from them,” he said.
“Oh! Obama looked like Jumpsuit Susie when he pulled up in a limo to get Sushi this weekend,” Santilli said, showing the mood he was in. It was genuinely firey!
Santilli was especially upset about the attacks on Republican-Trump-endorsed candidate for US House for Ohio- JR Majewski. Then, Pete and co-host Deb Jordan, who always agree perfectly on every topic and political candidate, talked about the details of a number of frustrating and shocking stories that will likely hit a nerve with many irate Americans.
Santilli had talked about the situation late last week:
Pete was also not happy about Trump’s endorsement of Dr. Oz in PA either.
“We are going to stick a great big BBQ fork in the United States. We are done,” Santilli said out of frustration about the fleeting idea of replacing the voting machines in time for the 2022 mid-terms, and he slammed US Rep for Ohio Jim Jordan even.
Later in the show, Santilli slammed the Democrats, so no one felt left out.
“The Biden goons are making arrests and sticking guns in the faces of Pastors, and that is an unfair advantage because they know pastors will not meet them with guns,” he told audiences before expressing his annoyance over the Communists.
“We have to be pro-Americans and against anti-Republican obstructionists, the Republican party itself. They are our opponents. They raised money to fight election fraud and what has happened? Nothing,” he said.
Santilli reconfirmed his battle with the Chinese Communist Party over all else and was frustrated at the idea of the Republican Party trashing Conservative candidates.
Trump has made several endorsements in their home state- of Ohio- and the neighboring state of PA, that does not seem to resonate well with the MAGA movement causing grave concern as the country feels like it is careening out of control toward Communism.
Pete was on fire today, also talking about the corrupt FBI who arrested a man for his defense of life, and Pete also talked about the betrayal of the Republican Party. They stand by and watch all this corruption and appear to be focused on keeping their cushy jobs.
“Where is President Trump? He doesn’t want yes men all around him. We need him to step up. Trump will thank me for challenging him because they are just laying down and letting the Communists take over,” Santilli said.
“Ohio is red, for sure, it is Communist red,” Deb said, getting Santill all charged up all over again.
September 26, 2022 at 06:57AM Biden’s FBI Sends 25-30 Agents to Home of Pro-Life Author and Father of 7 – Arrest Him for Reportedly Protecting His Son from an Abortion Escort
A father of seven and pro-life warrior was arrested this morning in Pennsylvania by 25-30 FBI agents for protecting his son from crude actions reportedly made against his son by an abortion escort.
A well-known pro-life author, sidewalk counselor, and father of seven was the latest victim of a U.S. Department of Justice-sponsored SWAT raid and arrest — for supposed “FACE Act” violations — at his rural home as his children looked on “screaming.”
Mark Houck is the founder and president of The King’s Men, which promotes healing for victims of pornography addiction and promotes Christian virtues among men in the United States and Europe…
…Ryan-Marie, who is a homeschool mother, explained the SWAT team of 25 to 30 FBI agents swarmed their property with around 15 vehicles at 7:05 a.m. this morning. Having quickly surrounded the house with rifles in firing position, “they started pounding on the door and yelling for us to open it.”
Before opening the door, she explained, her husband tried to calm them, saying, “‘Please, I’m going to open the door, but, please, my children are in the home. I have seven babies in the house.’ But they just kept pounding and screaming,” she said.
When he opened the door, “they had big, huge rifles pointed at Mark and pointed at me and kind of pointed throughout the house,” Ryan-Marie described…
The FBI was there because of Mark’s work against abortion. Recently an abortion advocate and escort reportedly harassed his son at an abortion clinic and when Houck protected his son he was accused of harassing the escort.
…On several occasions when Mark went to sidewalk counsel last year, he took his eldest son, who was only 12 at the time, she explained. For “weeks and weeks,” a “pro-abortion protester” would speak to the boy saying “crude … inappropriate and disgusting things,” such as “you’re dad’s a fag,” and other statements that were too vulgar for her to convey.
Repeatedly, Mark would tell this pro-abortion man that he did not have permission to speak to his son and please refrain from doing so. And “he kept doing it and kind of came into [the son’s] personal space” obscenely ridiculing his father. At this point, “Mark shoved him away from his child, and the guy fell back.”
“He didn’t have any injuries or anything, but he tried to sue Mark,” and the case was thrown out of court in the early summer.
This is not the first time the FBI raided pro-lifer’s homes. In April, AG Merrick Garland’s FBI sent agents at gunpoint to the homes of anti-abortion protesters who uncovered a gruesome find. Some suspect the FBI’s raid was to prevent our counter the release of evidence of infanticide.
On Thursday, LifeSiteNews covered the arrest of nine pro-life activists for blocking the entrance to a D.C. abortion center in October 2020, as part of an effort to offer help to families seeking abortion, counsel them to change their minds, pray with them, and inform them about local resource centers.
The Biden DOJ alleges that they “engaged in a conspiracy to create a blockade at the reproductive health care clinic to prevent the clinic from providing, and patients from receiving, reproductive health services” when they “forcefully entered the clinic and set about blockading two clinic doors using their bodies, furniture, chains, and ropes.” The pro-lifers face up to 11 years in prison, three years of supervised release, and a fine of up to $350,000…
…Later Thursday, it was reported that the organizer of the rescue, Lauren Handy, was arrested when the police received a tip leading to the discovery of the bodies of five aborted babies in her home, which quickly became a subject of rampant online speculation.
Now, Handy’s allies are beginning to speak out about her side of the story. The group Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising (PAAU), for which Handy is activism director, issued a press release Friday explaining that “prior to the arrest, one of the defendants privately arranged for the Metropolitan Washington D.C. Police homicide unit to pick up five recently discovered late-term aborted babies for forensic examination. Their late gestational ages as well as their apparent sustained injuries potentially show violations of the Partial Birth Abortion Act as well as the Born Alive Infants Protection Act which are federal crimes.”
Biden’s FBI is no better than the worst militant police entities in history.
A prayer rally is scheduled tomorrow (Saturday morning September 24) at the “Philadelphia Women’s Center” abortion facility at 777 Appletree St. from 10:30 a.m. to noon for the Houck family. All are invited to come and pray peacefully.
Democrats are crying about the human suffering in Iran this month as if they don’t have anything to do it with it. They do; they have supported the American lawmakers, like Joe Biden, who have pushed these oppressive policies and leaders on the people of Iran – and here is proof.
Remember, Democrats and Joe Biden supported and voted for Iran to have leadership at the UN over human rights where they could set directives dealing with the treatment of women, and they have worked with the monster leader of the country who has caused the death of many women over oppressive dress codes that many of them hate.
And Democrats supported the murderous leader of Iran.
Let’s start with the treatment of women that American leftist feminists have forced on the women of Iran, through the United Nations, which has been a central conflict in the recent uprising in Iran. Remember, Democrats voted FOR Iran to have this leadership:
.@EmmaWatson when Iran was elected to join Commission on the Status of Women, Iranians warned @UN_Women of the regime’s awful track record of violating women's rights. The killing of #MahsaAmini & others. Plz be our voice to revoke Islamic Republic’s membership.#مهسا_امینی
Key Point: Democrats who support Joe Biden’s administration are being accused of ignoring the pleas of the Iranian people, who were always dissatisfied with leader Ibrahim Raisi over his massive crime against humanity in 1988 in Iran.
Remember this is the leader who is behind the recent violence that the left are virtue signaling they care about.
For over a year, we have known Raisi was working with the White House -without repercussions for his crimes against humanity.
Flashback:
“Jen Psaki seemed to suggest that the US is only planning on holding Raisi accountable for new HR violations in the future,”M. Hanif Jazayeri, a news editor for Iran, told me in Jan 2021 when I followed up with him about what is happening in Iran at the time.
The current conflict in Iran centers around Ibrahim Raisi the newly President-Elect of Iran. His campaign was protested heavily by the people and activists in Iran leading up to the election and those protests were ignored by the Democrats who blindly support corrupt US politicians.
We had been warned the violence would happen under Raisi- and Democrats ignored it:
“Iran’s state TV official translator deliberately cuts out sensitive parts of foreign reporter’s question to Ebrahim Raisi on his role in the #1988Massacre, including @amnesty‘s call for him to be investigated for “crimes against humanity,”M. Hanif Jazayeri reported on Twitter.
White House @PressSec: US will hold Ebrahim Raisi accountable for "violations of human rights on his watch GOING FORWARD"
Even though the people wanted him to be investigated for crimes against humanity, the Biden administration embraced Raisi and has said publically that they will look over his past abuses.
“The people of Iran certainly expect the US administration to lead the international community into holding Ebrahim Raisi accountable for perpetrating crimes against humanity. Mass murderers like Raisi should not enjoy impunity. In any case, the 1988 massacre is an ongoing crime against humanity. People are put in prison and face torture only for demanding justice, while the regime also continues to destroy the mass graves of the victims. The families deserve to have closure, through an international Commission of Inquiry,” Jazayeri told me.
Jazayeri continued to post evidence that the UN should investigate the character of Raisi.
Iran’s president Ebrahim Raisi watched as opponents were tortured@TheTimes interviews survivors of the #1988Massacre
Will democratic countries support a UN Commission of Inquiry into Raisi's crimes against humanity?
According to Iran media, events leading up to the 1988 :
“Following the 1979 revolution, Ruhollah Khomeini’s regime continued to sink the country into a merciless religious dictatorship that spared neither women, nor students, nor minorities. In the same period, Khomeini’s henchmen murdered 70 members and supporters of the MEK during peaceful rallies, meetings, and protests.
On June 20, 1981, the MEK tested the democratic environment a final time by launching a demonstration to remind the Khomeini regime of its responsibility to respect the fundamental freedoms of the Iranian people. In Tehran, more than 500,000 people attended the demonstration, which hadn’t been publicly declared in advance.
In response, Khomeini ordered the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC), his personal army, to open fire on the unarmed and peaceful protesters.
Therefore, June 20 is known in Iran as a turning point of the Iranian people’s struggle for freedom that proved the regime is unable to reform and needs to be overthrown.
WITNESS TO 1988
A former political prisoner who survived the 1988 massacre in Iran had spoken out against the hardline president-elect.
I spoke to a former political prisoner and survivor of the the 1988 massacre in Iran for his thoughts on the hardline president-elect Ebrahim Raisihttps://t.co/UOZAF8wdX6
“Ahmad Ebrahimi, 60, told me that he came face-to-face with judge Ebrahim Raisi when he was an inmate in Tehran that year, when Raisi was one of four people on the prosecution committee responsible for the execution of thousands of political prisoners. The group was known as the “death committee” by opponents of the regime.
American Democrats voted at the UN to support the Iran regime in their pursuit of dominating Women’s Rights, shocking the world and sending Iran’s women plummeting the country into despair.
Flashback to April 2021:
“Sky News host Rita Panahi says this is further evidence “the UN is a hopelessly corrupt clown operation” after Iran was elected to the United Nations’ peak body on the status of women. “As we all know, women in Iran are treated like second-class citizens… they do not enjoy equal rights under the law and are even locked up and beaten by the state for refusing to wear the hijab,” she said.
“So naturally, the UN has elected the Islamist regime to its peak women’s group. In fact, Iran has earned a four-year term on its Commission on the Status of Women, which is meant to be the principal global intergovernmental body exclusively dedicated to the promotion of gender equality and the empowerment of women. “Though the ballot was secret, UN Watch has determined that at least four of the 15 EU and Western Group democracies voted for Iran.”
UN Watch is calling on U.S. Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield and EU states to condemn the UN’s election of Iran to a 4-year term on its Commission on the Status of Women, the “principal global intergovernmental body exclusively dedicated to the promotion of gender equality and the empowerment of women.”
The vote yesterday by the UN’s Economic and Social Council, reported first by UN Watch, sparked outrage among human rights activists. “Electing the Islamic Republic of Iran to protect women’s rights is like making an arsonist into the town fire chief,” said Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch, the Geneva-based human rights group. “It’s absurd — and morally reprehensible. This is a black day for women’s rights, and for all human rights,” said Neuer.
At Least 4 EU & Western Democracies Backed Iran
Though the ballot was secret, UN Watch has determined that at least four of the 15 EU and Western Group democracies on ECOSOC—which include Australia, Austria, Canada, Finland, France, Latvia, Germany, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States—voted for Iran.
Iranian Activists, Victims, Decry ‘Surreal’ Vote
“This is surreal,” tweeted Iranian women’s rights activist Masih Alinejad. “A regime that treats women as second class citizens, jails them for not wearing the compulsory hijab, bans them from singing, bars them from stadiums and doesn’t let them travel abroad without the permission of their husbands gets elected to the UN’s top women’s rights body.”
At an event at the Swedish parliament, along with Dr. Javid Rahman, the UN special rapporteur, Masih Alinejad the founder of anti compulsory hijab movement in Iran, condemned the election of Islamic Republic of Iran to UN’s commission on the status of women.
“Yesterday in this event in Swedish parliament along with the UN special rapporteur, I condemned the UN’s election of Islamic Republic of Iran to its commission on the status of women. Please listen & share the message of Iranian women’s rights activists with your government,” Alinejad posted on Twitter.
Sky News host Rita Panahi says this is further evidence "the UN is a hopelessly corrupt clown operation" after Iran was elected to the United Nations' peak body on the status of women.https://t.co/B1Ke6J6dUI
Two Black American women led the Democrats on subjugating women around the world with their political authority, Linda Thomas Greenfiled and Kamala Harris.
The two Democrats welcomed the resources and money of Iran into the United States, and they have helped a murderous regime enslave Iranian women.
I am honored, and beyond humbled, to have been sworn in today by @VP Kamala Harris as the United States Ambassador to the United Nations.
In response to UN’s decision to elects Iran to commission on women's rights. Below is a brief timeline of the steps taken by the regime to gradually deprive Iranian women of their rights: pic.twitter.com/qIeGTjl7dc
February 26, 1979: Khomeini’s office announced that the Family Protection Act was going to be repealed. February 27, 1979: The Women’s Social Services Act was revoked
February 28, 1979: Gender discrimination was extended to the sports arena and women’s athletic tournaments were cancelled one after the other.
March 2, 1979: Women were banned from judgeship. Hundreds of female judges and juristic interns were left in limbo.
March 4, 1979: The right of divorce was granted exclusively to men, enabling them to unilaterally decide for divorce at any time of their liking.
March 7, 1979: Khomeini issued a fatwa on the compulsory veil, obliging women who worked in government offices to cover their hair at work.
May 22, 1979: The first time a woman was flogged in public.
July 12, 1979: The first time three women were executed on the charge of committing vice.
June 29, 1980: For the first time, two women were stoned to death in Kerman, southern Iran. The verdict was carried out even before the adoption in 1982 of the inhuman Retribution Law by the mullahs’ parliament (Majlis).
By the end of 1981, the gender-segregation was implemented in public transportations, recreation centers, seaside, and other public areas.
According to Article 1041 of the Civil Code reformed and amended on November 5, 1991: Marriage of girls before 13 solar years and boys before 15 solar years is conditioned on the permission of the guardian on the condition that a qualified court deems it appropriate.
According to Article 102 of the Punishment Law ratified in 1983, women who appear in public and in the streets without the religious veil are punished by 74 lashes of the whip.
Article 8 of the mullahs’ Constitution institutionalized the duty of “promoting virtue and forbidding vice.” In the year 2010, the mullahs’ president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, placed greater emphasis on this law by supplementing it by another bill.
In 2010 another act was embraced to “spread the culture of chastity and Hijab” according to which at least 26 government agencies were instructed to carry out duties to enforce the compulsory veil on Iranian women.
In 2012, the regime implemented an extensive plan in all universities, designating gender quotas for admission of female students. According to this plan, girls were completely banned from applying for B.S. or B.A. in 77 fields of study.
In mid-April 2013, Khamenei offered a plan to increase the country’s population, by boosting the average birth rate. The mullahs’ parliament followed suit and passed a legislation which openly placed further restrictions on women’s employment and family rights.
In 2014, the mullahs’ parliament passed two articles of a new bill which lent support to those who promote virtue and forbid from evil. The rest of the bill was adopted in 2016, which gave priority to the views of the mullahs’ supreme leader and was readily implemented.
More than 500 young women and girls were arrested and imprisoned for participating in the December 2017-January 2018 uprisings.
On December 15, 2019, the Iranian Resistance announced that +1,500 people were killed by the security forces in the November protests. Then, on December 23, Reuters news agency confirmed from sources within the Iranian regime that 400 women and 17 youths were among those killed.
Freedom-loving women & female students participated extensively in the protests in January 2020 against the downing of a Ukrainian passenger aircraft by IRGC missiles. Participants in the protests called for resignation of the supreme leader Ali Khamenei and for regime change.
AMERICAN DEMOCRATS ARE ENABLING THEIR ABUSERS
From a release:
UN Watch is calling on U.S. Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield and EU states to condemn the UN’s election of Iran to a 4-year term on its Commission on the Status of Women, the “principal global intergovernmental body exclusively dedicated to the promotion of gender equality and the empowerment of women.”
The vote yesterday by the UN’s Economic and Social Council, reported first by UN Watch, sparked outrage among human rights activists. “Electing the Islamic Republic of Iran to protect women’s rights is like making an arsonist into the town fire chief,” said Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch, the Geneva-based human rights group. “It’s absurd — and morally reprehensible. This is a black day for women’s rights, and for all human rights,” said Neuer.
At Least 4 EU And Western Democracies Backed Iran
Though the ballot was secret, UN Watch that at least four of the 15 EU and Western Group democracies on ECOSOC—which include Australia, Austria, Canada, Finland, France, Latvia, Germany, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States—voted for Iran.

The failures of virtue signaling by the soft-mentally weak left are everywhere, as Americans see in the recent story of Republican Gov. of Florida, Ron DeSantis, moving migrants to the elite Martha’s Vineyard and watching the entire leftist apparatus going into displays of panic as they are confronted with the consequences of their own actions.
The left virtue signal that they are ok with open borders, yet there was a conflict when migrants were taken to their neighborhoods. That reaction is called ‘Cognitive Dissonance.’
“Their virtue signaling is a fraud” —Ron DeSantis on objections to populating Martha’s Vineyard with 50 of Biden’s 3 million illegals.
Here is the perfect example of how virtue signaling causes cognitive dissonance and impairs people:
A beautiful young British woman made a Tik Tok video while in tears about the treatment she received at a trendy clothing shop while she was trying clothing on. This story and her reaction is the perfect example of the consequences of ass gaslighting on a population and of brainwashing young women that they are not allowed to defend themselves or expect for anyone to care about their safety.
Notice that her speech and her inner conflict do not match up. After watching this short video- you will understand the term: Cognitive Dissonance and if you think about it, you will understand the consequences of Cognitive dissonance, which is a mental conflict that occurs when your beliefs don’t line up with your actions. It’s an uncomfortable state of mind when someone has contradictory values, attitudes, or perspectives about the same thing.
From the Video the young woman explains her point of view, saying:
“But I’m still a nobody. I feel like I need to get the word out there. Um, so I was just in Primark in Cambridge. And I feel stupid being emotional about this, but, um, I was trying on some clothes and it was a unisex changing room which I’m really forward and I love that because, you know, it makes everyone feel included. But twice, two men walked open the curtain and walked in on me.
And both times I cover up, I was so shocked and I said- sorry- right? Like as if it was my fault.
But yeah I have to say though, Primark have been amazing. They were really really good about it. Yeah, they walked me back to my car and everything because I was scared.
Apparently, it’s not the first time it’s happened and security are watching back the tapes and seeing if they can find who is but..
Yeah, I just want to say to people, please be careful and if you go in the changing room, try not to go on your own.
I will never be doing that again. I would rather take it home, try it on, and then take it back and get refunded. So yeah, stay safe,” the woman told her audience.
WATCH:
What a shocker! Girls now feeling unsafe in unisex changing rooms. Have no idea why companies like @Primark did not consider this beforehand? pic.twitter.com/o5UWPDln1Y
Consider the painful conflicts that forced virtue signaling is causing good people:
Forced compliance paradigm-think Virtue Signaling Through a series of experiments, the author of cognitive dissonance postulated the forced compliance paradigm, extending the cognitive dissonance theory. In an experiment where the subjects had to perform a series of menial tasks and lie to another person about the tasks being interesting and enjoyable, it was found that the subjects who received $1 to lie did a better job than the ones who received $20. Festinger explained that this was because the subjects who were paid more did not experience dissonance, as they were rewarded well and had ample justification for lying. Whereas the subjects who were paid a mere dollar experienced dissonance and to justify their experience, they re-evaluated the menial tasks as enjoyable, making their lie more believable to others (as the subject believed in it themselves).
The experiment shows that in an attempt to reduce dissonance, the attitude towards it changes, more likely in the direction of less incentive. Cognitive dissonance theory, in this regard, contradicts most behavioural theories that attribute positive changes to higher incentives.
Have you ever thought of what the word ‘Dominion’ means? According to the Oxford dictionary-It means supremacy, control, dominance, preeminent, hegemony, authority, mastery, command, jurisdiction, and on and on.. all things that no one should be saying about free and fair elections.
1.sovereignty or control.”man’s attempt to establish dominion over nature.
Why would people be ok with Americans calling vote tabulation machines authority over free and fair elections?
Finally, here is a story about Dominion voting systems losing control of one Wisconson County.
Wendy Rogers, an election integrity advocate and a member of the Arizona State Senate from the 6th legislative district., posted an important article from Jim Hoft of The Gateway Pundit.
Rogers was elected in November 2020. Rogers was an officer in the United States Air Force from 1976 to 1996 and has been a high-profile advocate for President Donald J. Trump.
BREAKING BIG: Wisconsin County Takes Control Away from Dominion – Approves Hand Recount of Governor, Lieutenant Governor and U.S. Senator Race in November Election https://t.co/7xv2ijUkig
Rogers reposted The Gateway Pundit article that has some important advice for others who are concerned about who has dominion over American elections.
“BREAKING BIG: Wisconsin County Takes Control Away from Dominion – Approves Hand Recount of Governor, Lieutenant Governor and U.S. Senator Race in November Election,” Jim Hoft reported, adding:
Reader David sent this in: A few weeks ago I recommended to our County Executives to provide funds for a hand count of our upcoming 2022 governor and US Senate races in selected municipalities. I emphasized this would provide proof to those of us that are skeptical of the voting machines.
The Washington County Executive Committee recently announced that the Washington County Board has provided funds to perform a hand count of ALL the votes in the entire county!

Doctor: if You Have Toenail Fungus, Do This Immediately (Genius!) Dentists Shocked: Basic Vitamin Stops Teeth Falling Out & Rebuild Gums This is a great first step. Please announce this on your website so as to encourage other counties in Wisconsin and elsewhere to do the same.
If we find the machines are not tallying the votes correctly, that will be prima facia evidence of the fraud. If the tally is correct, we’ll need to move on. But we definitely need more counties to do what Washington County has done; do a hand count to compare the two. Yes, we are counting the paper ballots not machine images.
For more info please call me any time or email. I’ve also given this info to Jefferson Davis, who is doing a follow-up.
Here’s a link to the local news report regarding the funding allocation. The important section is in the last few paragraphs.The West Bend Daily News reported:
By Grayson Sewell gsewell@conleynet.com
WASHINGTON COUNTY — The Washington County Executive Committee voted to upgrade the county’s election management system, and to do a full recount of select state and federal elections, during their meeting on Wednesday.
“What we’re looking at doing is beginning to program all of our elections here, in-house, rather than contracting with [Dominion Voting Systems] as we have in the past,” said Washington County Clerk Ashley Reichert.
According to Reichert, her predecessor had previously programmed the election machines used by the county in-house, until April of 2016 when they had decided to switch to Dominion voting machines and contract the work out through Dominion.
Currently, the county has the “lite” version of the software used for the voting machines, and would need to pay for upgrading to the full version so they can start programming the machines in-house again. The county will be able to use the same voting machines with the full version of the program.
“It’s the same software, it’s just a program that gives me the capability of inputting all of the data that I compile already,” said Reichert. “Then I’m able to actually put it all together and finalize it all rather than having Dominion do so.”
The cost of upgrading the software and training staff is estimated to be up to $75,000, according to the committee report.
Reichert said this will also lead to ongoing expenses for the county for increased fees, but they will be included in her budget moving forward and would go through a budget amendment in the future.
According to Reichert, one of the fee increases is $11,000 more than the county currently pays. The other is for $20,000 for training and support in programming as they switch to doing it in-house, but it will only be for a year or so.
“I think this is something that Ashley should be commended for. I think anything we can do to pull things away from Dominion and have more control, and Ashley, who I think does a phenomenal job, to be able to have her hands on it, is a positive,” said County Executive Josh Schoemann.
See COMMITTEE, PAGE 6A
From Page 1A
“I’d like to also echo those same comments. I think we need to make our public aware that we’re bringing so much more of this control in-house, inside the county,” said County Supervisor Caroll Merry.
The committee voted unanimously to approve the use of up to $75,000 in strategic priority funds to upgrade the county’s election system management software.
The committee then voted on doing a full recount by hand of the governor, lieutenant governor and U.S. senator elections in the general election on Nov. 8.
According to Reichert, the county audits every election held, by choice.
Normally, the county will randomly select two reporting units in the county and then hand-count the ballots in two of the races in the election and compare the results with the voting machine tabulations.
“What we are suggesting doing for the 2022 general election is hand-counting the entire county as a part of an audit doing the top state race and the top federal race, which would be governor, lieutenant governor and then the U.S. Senate race, and hand-counting all of those,” said Reichert.
According to Reichert, the expense of the recount is up to $50,000, and would be paid for by the county and not the individual municipalities. The funding would come out of the strategic priority fund.
She added that she doesn’t believe the recount would cost the full $50,000, as in 2016 the full recount cost roughly $36,000.
