On the International Day of #PoliticalPrisoners#, all those imprisoned for speaking the truth, defending human rights, and peacefully exercising their fundamental freedoms should be remembered. As of October 30, 2026, The @CECCgov Political Prisoner Database—which captures only a fraction of the actual number of detentions—has documented 11,486 cases of political and religious prisoners in China, including 2,613 cases of active detention.  Explore CECC Political Prisoner Database 👉  #FreeThemAll#

CNN’s Abby Phillip interrupts former Iranian political prisoner Kian Tajbakhsh and immediately cuts to a commercial right after he said this: “You can draw a straight line from the 2015 nuclear deal to October 7th.” TAJBAKHSH: “What happened with President Obama, I’ll just say this very quickly.” “And I was in the State Department in the 2000s when we implored the Bush administration not to restrict the engagement with Iran simply to the nuclear file.” “What happened with president Obama is that, for better or worse — and I’m not going to litigate that here — he decided that given the four big problems that have always been on American objectives with Iran, that is enrichment, ballistic missiles, proxies and democracy inside Iran, that he would put all the last three aside and focus only on the nuclear deal.” “Now, I’m not going to say that was good or bad. I don’t think it was a great idea, but what we have seen and this is also maybe controversial and I think a lot of my liberal friends are going to hate me for this…” “Is that unfortunately you can draw a straight line from the 2015 nuclear deal to October 7th.” “I think that what the Trump administration is—” PHILLIP: “We…we…we do have to go to a break here.” TAJBAKHSH: “Okay.” PHILLIP: “There’s more on the other side. So hold your thought because I have some follow up questions for you about what the endgame is here and now…”
