President Trump has asked the Iranian regime to consider releasing eight women reportedly facing execution, as U.S. and Iranian negotiating teams are set to meet on Tuesday for a final attempt to solidify a permanent ceasefire agreement. The tentative deal is scheduled to expire Wednesday night after President Trump granted an extension to the original deadline.

The women facing execution were reportedly involved in anti-regime protests, and their deaths would be part of the regime’s continued crackdown on demonstrations from earlier this year, which has sparked outrage among many. However, some left-leaning media outlets that frequently position themselves as defenders of human rights have been largely silent on the regime’s abuses, despite their criticism of Israel’s treatment of Gazans and other human rights issues.
The Iranian regime has yet to respond to President Trump’s demand.
It is also unclear when the women are scheduled to be executed.
Editor’s Note: For decades, former presidents have been all talk and no action. Now, Donald Trump is eliminating the threat from Iran once and for all.
