										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="p1">The National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) has backed the European Union’s move to put the Iranian Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) on the “terrorist list” after a deadly crackdown on mass protests.</p>
<p>Speaking ahead of a meeting of EU ministers in Brussels, the bloc’s foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said: “If you act as a terrorist, you should also be treated as a terrorist.”</p>
<p>Shahin Gobadi, a member of the NCRI’s foreign affairs committee, told <em>Brussels Signal</em> that the decision was long overdue. “We have been pushing for this for a long time. In our view, the decision is at least three decades late,” he said.</p>

<p>Dozens of bodies zipped up in black bags were seen piled up outside the Kahrizak Forensic Medical Center near Tehran as relatives desperately tried to identify their slain loved ones over the weekend.</p>
<p>Some could be heard wailing loudly in grief, while others were spotted hunching over the scores of bodies lining the ground.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings from Tyler,</p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.foxnews.com/world/iran-protests-grow-deadlier-regime-internet-blackout-fails-stop-uprising">They’ve got full blown pandemonium in Tehran. Maybe the mullahs won’t survive it.</a></span> People are using the internet, and we’ve got real time pictures of what’s going on. I don’t know if you know this, but things haven’t been good under the religious police. There are hints that the son of the shah may return to set things right. When you look at downtown Tehran, keep in mind that the British built those buildings. <span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/iran-protests-biggest-in-years-against-ayatollah-what-to-know/">There’s a limit to how much a population will take, and I think the weird holy men have crossed the line.</a></span> Anyway, everybody’s in the streets and it looks like the last time. Maybe the crowd has come to its senses.</p>
<p>The whole thing is falling apart. Democrats don’t know which way to turn. The fraud is being exposed and we’re all witnesses. <span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.pennlive.com/nation-world/2026/01/2000-ice-agents-deployed-to-minnesota-in-unprecedented-immigration-operation.html">ICE agents are going door to door to get the illegals out in Minneapolis.</a></span> I don’t know if there’s time in Trump’s presidency to get everybody who doesn’t belong in the U. S. out or not. We’re going to be hurting for landscape work in East Texas. (I don’t employ them.)</p>
<p>Tim Walz is in trouble. And he could have been our Vice President. Can you imagine? Apparently he’s known about the scams the Somalis were running in Minnesota and has admitted as much. He apparently thinks if he admits to the scam now he’ll escape trouble. I don’t think so. <span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.newsweek.com/is-walz-dropping-out-minnesota-governor-news-conference-11306907">He’s dropped out of the gubernatorial race, and don’t look now, but he’s in a heap of trouble.</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.newsweek.com/is-walz-dropping-out-minnesota-governor-news-conference-11306907"> </a> </span></span>Apparently he knew about the Somalis scamming, and hushed it up. Can you imagine having a phony like that in high office? Now he looks and sounds like a buffoon, not that he didn’t already.</p>
<p>There’s been someone shot in Minnesota, by an ICE agent. The media is going crazy. You can imagine what they’re saying. There will be recriminations and that’s probably all you’ll hear on the networks. They always seem to want to blame the enforcers,<span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://nypost.com/2026/01/09/us-news/minnesota-ice-watch-teaches-members-to-resist-agents/"> but the situation was serious and the guy didn’t have much time to decide.</a></span> The liberals are losing on every other front, so they’re going to milk this.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/trump-escalates-greenland-rhetoric-citing-221607262.html">Trump wants Greenland.</a></span> There’s word that $100,000 is on offer to those that want independence from Denmark. Trump says we need it for national defense, and who knows? <span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/russias-use-of-its-hypersonic-missile-in-western-ukraine-is-seen-as-a-warning-to-kyivs-allies/ar-AA1TTnAa">Maybe, given Russia’s nuclear capabilities, we do.</a></span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>We’ve still got ships off-shore Venezuela.<span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/takeaways-nicolas-maduro-court-appearance-9.7034570"> We’ve already taken Maduro, and he’s pleading his case in an American court.</a></span> If there was any doubt, there’s not anymore. Trump means business. The whole world has to decide whose side to be on.<span class="Apple-converted-space">             </span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4 class="underline">Islamic Republic’s supreme leader says Trump, who’s threatened to hit Iran if demonstrators are killed, has hands ‘stained with the blood of Iranians’ and will be ‘overthrown’</h4>
<p>Iran’s supreme leader signaled Friday that security forces would crack down on protesters after they screamed from windows and marched through the streets overnight, directly challenging US President Donald Trump’s pledge to support those peacefully demonstrating.</p>
<p>Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei dismissed Trump as having hands “stained with the blood of Iranians” as supporters shouted “Death to America!” in footage aired by Iranian state television.</p>
<p>Protesters are “ruining their own streets to make the president of another country happy,” Khamenei said, referring to Trump. There was no immediate response from Washington, though Trump reiterated his pledge to strike Iran if protesters are killed.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4 class="underline">US president says America would come rescue peaceful protesters if Tehran kills them; senior Iranian security official says demonstrations stoked by US, Israel</h4>
<p>DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — US President Donald Trump and top Iranian officials exchanged dueling threats Friday as widening economic protests swept across parts of the Islamic Republic, further escalating tensions between the countries after America joined Israel in bombing Iranian nuclear sites in June.</p>
<p>Trump initially wrote on his Truth Social platform, warning Iran that if it “violently kills peaceful protesters,” the United States “will come to their rescue.” At least seven people <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/six-reported-killed-in-iran-clashes-as-cost-of-living-protests-continue-to-rage/">have been killed</a> so far in violence surrounding the demonstrations, sparked in part by the collapse of Iran’s rial currency.</p>
<p>“We are locked and loaded and ready to go,” Trump wrote, without elaborating.</p>

<div class="c-article-content js-article-content">
<p>Merchants across Iran shuttered stores and people demonstrated in multiple cities on what is now day five of protests after the rial&#8217;s value collapsed, marking the Islamic Republic&#8217;s most significant civil unrest since late 2022.</p>
<p>Sellers in Tehran&#8217;s commercial districts began closing shops Sunday when the currency reached 1.42 million rials per dollar, its weakest level on record. Crowds assembled near Republic Street and the historic Grand Bazaar.</p>
<p>Demonstrations expanded to Isfahan, Shiraz, Mashhad, Kermanshah and Hamadan by Tuesday. Authorities used tear gas against gatherers in parts of the capital.</p>
