This is one spectacular impromptu presser by Secretary of State Marco Rubio following discussions with Ecuador’s President Daniel Noboa at Carondelet Palace. All of it is direct, deliberate, targeted and without any reserved remarks held back due to regional sensibilities.
Secretary Rubio emphatically outlined how the United States is going to work with Latin-America officials to remove narco-terrorism in all its forms from the region like “cutting out a cancer.” Rubio walks through the issues and the importance of direct confrontation, including the use of the U.S. military, the U.S. intelligence agencies and every element of power at our disposal to help leaders like President Daniel Noboa fight the corrupt gangs and domestic terrorist networks within the region. Rubio’s strength of statements is exceptional.
These remarks come on the heels of the State Dept today designating corrupt Ecuadorian officials as facilitators of Foreign Terrorist Organizations [SEE HERE]. He also praised the government of Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa as being “the most involved and aggressive partner” the US has had in its work dismantling criminal networks and “bringing people to justice that have never been brought to justice before”. Rubio outlined all of it, soup to nuts. This is a must watch presser:
STATE DEPT – […] Pablo Ramírez Erazo, former director of Ecuador’s Prison Authority; Wilman Terán Carillo, former judge on Ecuador’s National Court of Justice; and Ronaldo Xavier Guerrero Cruz, former criminal judge on Ecuador’s Judicial Council, each significantly abused their former government positions by accepting bribes from gangs linked to narco-terrorist organizations. In exchange for bribes, these officials interfered with judicial, electoral, or public processes on behalf of Ecuadorian gangs linked to designated FTOs Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG), Los Choneros, and Los Lobos.
Pablo Bolívar Muentes Alarcón, former member of the Ecuadorian National Assembly; María Fabiola Gallardo Ramia, former President of the Guayas Provincial Court; Johann Marfetán Medina, former criminal judge of the Guayas Provincial Court; and Mayra Carolina Salazar Merchán, former public relations officer of the Guayas Provincial Court, each abused their former public positions by accepting bribes in exchange for interfering with judicial processes to benefit narco-terrorist organizations like Los Choneros and the Sinaloa Cartel, and their criminal facilitators.

He continues to be more impressive each day. Fun to witness
Too bad he hasn’t NAMED THE NAMES, or said anything about all of the corruption that he HAD TO HAVE SEEN WHEN HE WAS A MEMBER OF “THE GANG OF 8.”
None of the gang of 8 have been charged with anything.
I. believe Rubio presents as much more seasoned, insightful on the inner workings of the deep state.
Rubio presents as much more presidential than Vance.
Rubio unscripted is brilliant at times schooling MSM.
I don’t believe the polls.
Vance is the chosen one but, to me Rubio is the more qualified candidate to run.
Chosen by the BigTech Oligarchs?
This is awesome!!!
He talks extensively of these organizations, their funding, their criminal activities and how deeply rooted they are in the countries’ government. Maybe when he’s done down there, they can root out the deepstate?
My guess is Rubio will be our next president. His intellect & understanding of world affairs and solving the problems that face this great nation are unparalleled. Forget the gang of eight bull shit. There’s always a scoffer regarding true patriots that want the best for their children and the country they love.
