Input: Consider Input: This week  one of IRIBâs popular nightly talk shows was dedicated to the protests. The Channel Two show featured Ahmad Amirabadi Farahani  a conservative MP  and  Reza Seraj   introduced as an âexpert on strategic questions and a university professor.â
 Seraj  is well-known to many Iranian activists  although not exactly in those terms. Many of the thousands who have gone through the notorious interrogations blindfolded in Tehranâs Evin Prison remember his voice as an âexpert interrogator.â He is known for meting out psychological torture rather than physical torture by flaunting his supposed knowledge of the intricate webs of espionage with which any given activist is allegedly involved.
Born in the southwestern city of Ahvaz in 1966   Seraj  has cut  his  teeth in different wings of the IRGC  especially its autonomous volunteer paramilitary  the Basij. One story alleges that in 1988  the then-21-year-old Seraj galvanized a group of angry Basijis to stop a speech by Ali Khameneiâwho was president at the timeâto soldiers on the frontlines of the war with Iraq. Back then  President Khamenei was engaged in a power struggle with Prime Minister Mir-Hossein Mousavi  who was regarded as being more revolutionary and closer to the founder of the Islamic Republic  Ayatollah Khomeini.
As it turned out  two decades later  in 2009   Seraj  played a lead role in defending Khamenei  by then the supreme leader  harassing and torturing supporters of Mousavi  who was by that time the leader of the Green Movement that threatened Khamenei.
â 'The Americans  the Israelis and the Saudis had a strategic operational plan that was to be put in action next year '  Seraj  said  'but some factors led them into hastening  it .' â
 Seraj  headed the student organization of Basij from 2008 to 2010 and was lauded by the pro-IRGC Fars News Agency as a transformative Basiji figure. In the years since  he has become known for working with outlets like Fars and the state broadcaster to defend the regime and spin tales of foreign espionage.
His real identity didnât remain hidden for long. Ali Afshari  the student activist who was driven to exile after bouts of prison and torture in Iran  recalled  Seraj  very well in an interview he gave to the New Haven-based Iran Human Rights Documentation Center.
âWhen I gave up  they had taken my blindfold [off] and I could see my interrogator â Afshari said. âHe introduced himself as Alavi but I later found out that his name was Seraj. He sometimes writes for Fars now and is the head of student Basij. I complained to the judge and asked for a different interrogator.  Seraj  used to tell me that it was  he  who told the judge what to do  not the other way around.â
Adding more to spice up the story  Amirabadi claimed that part of the U.S. plan was to bring the forces of ISIS to Iranian territory  but this had been thwarted by the Quds Force (a part of the IRGC which is not supposed to operate on Iranian territory) and the Unknown Soldiers of the Twelfth Imam (the name used for the forces of Iranâs ministry of intelligence.)  Seraj  quickly agreed with this claim.
According to  Seraj   now that the Americansâ âPlan Aâ had been defeated  they had resorted to âPlan B â which had been started by U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haleyâs calling on the United Nations Security Council to meet about Iran.
âTheir plan is to lead Iran to miscalculation and to change its behavior according to what U.S. and the European countries want â  Seraj  said. âThey had designed a game of dominoes. The Americans were to threaten us with leaving the JCPOA [nuclear agreement] and ramping up the sanctions while the Europeans were to play the good cop.â
Confirming "the Conspiracy" and Worries for Whatâs  Next
Seraj  doesnât officially speak for the IRGC so someone unfamiliar with  his  significance might dismiss  his  elaborate theory as the thoughts of one man. But Iranian Chief Prosecutor Mohammad Jafar Montazeri has given a version of events that coincides very closely with Serajâs.
Montazeri then gave numerous details to back up the story put forth by  Seraj  and Amirabadiâand added some new claims. The cities of Herat in Afghanistan and Erbil in Iraqi Kurdistan had been picked as centers of operation  he said  and ISIS forces were to come to Iran from there. He also claimed that Michael DâAndreaâwho was revealed in U.S. media reports back in June as the newly appointed head of the CIAâs Iran Mission Centerâhad organized the protests  a claim previously made by some pro-government Turkish newspapers (these reports were so inaccurate they had mistakenly published photographs of U.S. actors instead of DâAndrea.)
The Green Movement of 2009 was followed by Stalinesque show trials during which the accused confessed to involvement in elaborate espionage plans.  Seraj  is known to have played a role in concocting those fantasy plans. So  now  many worry that a similar fate awaits more than 1 500 people who have been arrested over the last few days.

Input: Consider Input: House Speaker  Paul Ryan  was ridiculed on social media Saturday after  he  tweeted  then deleted a post citing a womanâs tiny raise as an accomplishment of the GOP tax cut.
 Ryan  was responding to an Associated Press story about the controversial tax overhaulâs effect on Americansâ paychecks.
 He  highlighted Julia Ketchum  a secretary earning an additional $1.50 a week under the new withholding guidelines from the IRS following the passage of the bill.

 Ryanâs  Democratic opponent  Randy Bryce  used the blunder as a fund-raising opportunity.
âMoments ago  @PRyan deleted this tweet after we told him just how out of touch he was. Show  Paul Ryan  what you think of  his  tax bill. Chip in $1.50 now to help us repeal and replace  Ryan  permanently this November.â He linked to a fund-raising page that suggests a $1.50 donation to his campaign.
Social media users and Democratic lawmakers blasted  Ryan  over the since-deleted tweet.

 Ryan  preserved a second tweet in reaction to the AP story quoting a man saying  âI have heard time and time again that the middle class is getting crumbs  but Iâll take it!â
$1.50 doesnât even buy you a pack of gum. â April (@speakout_april) February 3  2018 Weâll work an extra 2 mins a day for our $1.50/wk. Can we have our 1.5 TRILLION back now? â SnarkyScottâï¸ (@flyaway_k) February 3  2018 Tweet about that then. Highlighting someone who's paycheck went up $1.50 because of your $1 trillion tax cut is insultingly asinine. Especially considering  Ryan  received $500 000 in contributions from a handful of ultra-rich donors after the tax cut was passed. â David P. O'Bryan (@OBryDavid07) February 3  2018 What's sad is that might have been good in 1918  but not today.. It literally  and I mean really  doesn't even cover the cost of a 20oz bottle of coke. One bottle! And  at the rate we are going with inflation  it may not cover the cost of a can of cat food. Now  this is scary! â Robin (@robinearhart20) February 3  2018  Paul Ryan  got a $500 000 bonus for passing the #GOPTaxScam... and  he âs super excited one of  his  voters will get $78 a year.

Input: Consider Input: Outspoken Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte added to his legendary list of outrageous claims Thursday when he bragged about stabbing a person to death when he was 16 years old -- and  Duterte  raised even more eyebrows when he reportedly later called former President Barack Obama "so black and arrogant."
In a defiant speech hitting back at critics of his deadly drug crackdown   Duterte  said  he  would go into jails and have “rumbles here  rumbles there.”
“At the age of 16  I already killed someone. A real person  a rumble  a stabbing ”  Duterte  said during a summit in the Vietnamese city of Danang  according to the BBC. “I was just 16 years old. It was just over a look. How much more now that I am president.”
A spokesman for  Duterte  said the remarks had been made “in jest.”
 Duterte  also hit Obama  slamming  his  former U.S. counterpart for criticizing the Philippines drug war.
“These white people  those from [the European Union]  the ignorant Americans  pretending to be  this Obama ”  Duterte  said  according to The Philippine Star. “You are so black and arrogant. [He] reprimanded me. Why you reprimand me? I’m the president of a country.”
Since  Duterte  took office 16 months ago  police said more than 3 960 people have been killed in the war on drugs. Another 2 290 people have been murdered in drug-related crimes  the government said.
Last year   Duterte  said  he  would be “happy to slaughter” millions of drug addicts and that  he  even fatally shot criminals while  he  was mayor of the southern city of Davao to set an example for police.
Thursday was not even the first time  he  has mentioned stabbing and killing someone while a teenager. In 2015   he  told the Philippines edition of Esquire magazine that during a “tumultuous fight in the beach” when  he  was 17  “maybe I stabbed somebody to death.”
It’s unclear if  he  was referring to the same incident in Thursday’s speech.
