Iran's own media indicates the “food/medicine sanctions” is fake news
Feb 4 — "Iran not relying on Swiss mechanism for supplying medicine, basic goods” – meaning no shortage in medicine & basic goods

Toossi’s main objective is to provide life support for @SimaforTX who is running against @DanCrenshaw.
Sima has been under fire for her ties with Iran’s regime.
She is endorsed by @paaia, Iran’s first lobby org in the U.S.
She also has ties with the Obama/Biden circle.
