The GOP senators sent a letter to Biden Tuesday night, noting President Ebrahim Raisi led the 1988 \u201cdeath commission\u201d and actively advanced political repressions against his own people.<\/p>\n<p>Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ariz.), who is leading the effort, asserted that Raisi is proud of his past atrocities and human rights violations. His comments comes as Biden quietly advances talks to restore the nuclear deal with Iran, which is raising a possibility of direct discussions in Washington. Iranian dissidents, however, agree with the GOP senators.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAyatollah Khamenei is deliberately pouring salt on old wounds,\u201d stated dissident Iraj Mesdaghi. \u201cRaisi is a known killer. Even in the 2017 presidential campaign, Rouhani said that killing was all that Raisi has done. So, he\u2019s a known killer.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">JUST IN: U.S. Senators <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TomCottonAR?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@TomCottonAR<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChuckGrassley?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@ChuckGrassley<\/a> have written to <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/POTUS?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@POTUS<\/a> this week asking him to deny a visa to <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Iran?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Iran<\/a>\u2019s incoming President Ebrahim Raisi for travel to New York for the opening of the UN General Assembly. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/V3E4nJnJmt\">pic.twitter.com\/V3E4nJnJmt<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Iran International English (@IranIntl_En) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IranIntl_En\/status\/1420480429107384323?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 28, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Sen.
