Ladjevardian entered the Harris County Democratic Party office in Houston primaries in the filing deadline on December 9, 2019.
It is quite interesting how this former @BetoORourke adviser was quickly escorted through the process.

Interesting that @jrezaian—who should logically hate the mullahs’ regime for imprisoning him—is wholeheartedly promoting a candidate endorsed by this very regime’s lobby in the U.S.?
Hmmm. Coincidence? I think not.

Ben Rhodes also supports Ladjevardian.
But don't be surprised.
Rhodes has a remarkably close relation with @NIACouncil, another Iran lobby group in the U.S., and its founder @tparsi.

PAAIA is an official Iran lobby org in DC
NIAC, however, denies any such lobbying for Tehran
Take a look at #NIACLobbies4Mullahs to see how Iranians feel about NIAC
And listen to this former regime insider explains how NIAC was launched by @JZarif

Iran is spending a massive amount of money to place its figures in the U.S. legislature. This makes it even more imperative to:
-be informed & inform others
-call on your representatives & senators to investigate into Iran’s lobby groups in the U.S. https://freebeacon.com/national-security/congress-seeks-investigation-into-pro-iran-lobby-group-tied-to-tehran-regime/

Thank you for reading & I welcome all constructive feedback.
And since I have a feeling there will be a backlash from pro-Iran regime voices on Twitter accusing me of being a “fake” account, I’ll leave this link from my blog that debunks those claims. https://bit.ly/2Xs3xgo
