🚨 THREAD: What do Mike Pence, Mike Pompeo, John Bolton, and Elaine Chao have in common? They were all paid by a Marxist-Islamist Iran group that was designated as terrorist until 2012.

No, this is not a joke.

Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK) was founded by leftist Islamists to oppose the western-backed Pahlavi, and participated in his 1979 overthrow. Khomeini barred MEK afterwards. MEK was implicated in multiple bombings, including that of Americans, and remained an openly armed group until 2003.

Since they got de-listed as a terrorist organization in 2012 on procedural grounds, MEK and their fronts have been actively recruiting US politicians selling themselves as a moderate alternative to Khomeini. But RAND Corporation says MEK meets the qualifications for a cult, citing criteria such as forcing their members to work 16+ hour days and forced divorces.

Polls of the Iranian-American community shows that they do NOT accept Rajavi, MeK's leader, as legitimate, with a 46-point net disapproval - numbers nearly as bad as the existing regime.

As Pence's former Chief of Staff, Marc Short, has already weighed against Trump deal, it's helpful to recall this. 

Receipts below. As always, patience as I pull the thread together.👇  ...

Pence's OGE financial disclosure, filed for his 2024 presidential candidacy, lists $190,000 from "National Council of Resistance of Iran" for a June 2022 speech at the MEK compound in Albania. Can't get more direct receipts than that.  ...

I wish this were some kind of Babylon Bee article; no this isn't a joke and no I am not surprised as I have always felt that  Pence was corrupt all along.  The only question I keep asking myself is how in the heck did Trump decide to select Pence in the first place? 

IIRC someone in here suggested that Kushner advised Trump to  select Pence as VP .... if that is correct .... then the rest of the story has unfolded before our very eyes with Iran. 

Agreement with Iran???
