"Earlier this month, Trump pledged to come to the aid of protesters if the regime turned to violence. On Tuesday, Trump renewed his vow, writing Iranian Patriots, KEEP PROTESTING TAKE OVER YOUR INSTITUTIONS!!! Save the names of the killers and abusers. They will pay a big price, in a post on Truth Social. HELP IS ON ITS WAY. MIGA!!! he added. Later that day, CBS News reported that the regime had already murdered between 12,000 and 20,000 protesters."
"Yet during a Wednesday afternoon Q&A, the president declared that the killing in Iran is stopping, and repeated the regime's justification for its crackdown: that people were shooting at security forces. Many on the right were less than pleased by Trump's new, more conciliatory posture. If the Iranian regime is not slaughtering citizens now then can we assume they'll turn on all the communications platforms so the world can see? asked Fox News' Mark Levin before Trump's Oval Office gaggle had ended."
Trump earlier promised to aid Iranian protesters if the regime turned violent and posted an urgent call on Truth Social urging protesters to keep demonstrating and record abusers. CBS News reported between 12,000 and 20,000 protesters had been killed. In a later Q&A, Trump said the killing was stopping and relayed the regime's claim that people were shooting at security forces. Conservative commentators, led by Mark Levin, rejected that assessment, questioned the intelligence behind the claim, argued tactics have shifted, and warned of continued executions, torture, and reprisal against detainees and activists.
