Former President Donald Trump was reportedly told in an intelligence briefing that Mojtaba Khamenei may be gay, according to a report citing sources within the intelligence community and a source close to the White House.

The report states that the information was presented during an official briefing. It also claims that Mojtaba's alleged sexuality was viewed as a factor in his father Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's opposition to him as a potential successor.

The allegations were first published earlier this month and are based on unnamed sources familiar with the intelligence assessment and internal discussions.
