iPhone : .Negar Mortazavi: From an int’l perspective, the world is more sympathetic to Iran’s position in the nuclear dispute than the U.S. because Iran stayed strictly committed to the nuclear deal for one year, after the U.S. left the deal and violated its terms. ow.ly/LlZh50x9b1I

iPhone : Chang had a key connection in Trump admin. Brian Bulatao, a top figure in State Department and old friend of Pompeo, attended a fundraiser for her nonprofit in TX and once donated $5500.
Chang was being considered for an even bigger government job with a budget of $1 billion.
iPhone : Senior Trump official Mina Chang embellished her resume; put her face on a fake Time magazine cover, claimed to be a Harvard Business School alum, invented a role on a UN panel, and claimed that she addressed Democratic and Republican national conventions.

iPhone : There actually was an entire media war launched in the 1980s to spread misinformation that Iran was using chemical weapons. Even when 3 UN fact-finding missions in 1980s found no evidence of it, they were accused of being biased. So this hypothetical is actually not far fetched. twitter.com/Azodiac83/stat…
