Mojtaba Khamenei is Irans new Supreme Leader. Not only did the US kill his father in the March 1st strikes, his wife and mother also died. Just something to think about.

People got real mad at Biden for looking at his watch during a dignified transfer. Looking forward to the same outrage at Trump for wearing a fucking hat
