Sen. Lindsey Graham stated on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that the U.S. should not intervene in choosing Iran’s next leader following the death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei due to U.S. and Israeli strikes. He emphasized that American interests lie in preventing Iran from being a state sponsor of terrorism, without deploying ground troops. Democrats expressed mixed views on Khamenei’s death, with some supporting Graham’s stance while others, like Rep. Ro Khanna, argued it does not enhance U.S. safety.
