U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth on Mojtaba Khamenei:

“We know the so-called new supreme leader is wounded and likely disfigured.

He released a statement yesterday — a weak one — but there was no voice and no video, only a written message calling for ‘unity.’

Apparently, killing tens of thousands of protesters is his idea of unity. Iran has plenty of cameras and recording equipment, so why only a written statement? I think you know why.

His father, Ali Khamenei, is dead. He’s scared, injured, on the run, and lacks legitimacy.

Iran is in chaos — they may not even know who’s in charge.”
