U.S. Official Celebrates Iran’s World Cup Exit | MLS News

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin celebrated Iran’s World Cup exit, admitting he did a “happy dance” and even sang songs — claiming his department handled Iran more than any other team. He also said he was glad Iran was gone from U.S. soil and hinted at visa pullbacks. Iran retaliated, accusing the U.S. of unfair treatment and saying FIFA ignored their pleas for fair play amid ongoing tensions.
