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’m not sold on him either, or Vance. I think we need another 8 years with a younger Trump. Either Don Jr or Eric, that way dad can help them.
Don, Jr.? No way.
Don, Jr. would provide ample smut for the other side.
The magical ending of his relationship with Kimberly Guilfoyle,
regardless of what you think of her, was a little punkish.
Pres. Trump’s offering of an Ambassadorship,
was an olive branch, but it was pretty much a bail-out for Jr.
Would rather not hand all that ammo over to the Dems.
Meanwhile, Rubio just continues to rack up the, “WINS.”
Too bad his deputies and assistants are not supporting the patriots in his own department. He looks great out front, but they are setting us up for failure in the coming years.
irregardless, we have a strong back bench.
But he’s NOT ELIGIBLE for the Presidency. Love to see him as SoS for another four years.
T y.
Scott Bessent for POTUS
I would be ok with him. I also thought of Tom Homan.
Sorry but Bovino is much better. Forced out. Homan is just ok IMO .
Wow………seriously?
I know. Bovino has joined the Tucker, Massie, Bannon, MTG crowd. Ever since he was removed we no longer have all of the lefty violence on a massive scale against ICE.
My opinion is that Bovino was/is part of the “get Trump at any price” movement and that he and his buddies mentioned above coordinated with lefty terrorists to make the Trump Administration look as bad as possible by having all sides show up at the same location with the optics of screaming terrorists and 15 ICE agents to pick up one guy.
That way they had their news headlines of ICE acting like the gestapo by using excessive muscle to round up one guy. They beat the drums nightly. Notice how it has stopped?
Mullin even said that his method is to use 1-2 agents to get one illegal instead 15 agents in 5 vehicles to get one illegal. (paraphrased).
I wonder if the slow down in lefty violence and big protests can also be attributed to the money for rent-a-mobs drying up. Investigations into Soros entities, and others, like Arabella Advisors, regarding their institutional funding of the left’s questionable activities, may have dampened their enthusiasm for feeding money to the leftist beast.
I would have considered that possibility except for the fact that AS SOON AS Bovino was removed and Mullin installed the riots stopped. Their money didn’t dry up that fast. One week flush with paid protestors and the next week and beyond…nothing.
Here’s a clip of Bovino smearing the Trump Admin with his fellow traveler, Tucker Carlson.
That treatment of Bovino was despicable.
Scott and First Husband? Not even a reality. Bessent is a warrior for sure, but he could never run for president and he knows that. He is the most consequential secretary of treasury we’ve had in decades. First rate mind and temperament.
Husband or wife?
“Partner” would be ok — I suppose.
Totally agree and I doubt he’d want to run.
Don’t jinx it.
There are no guarantees on what happens next in the bond mkt.
Things could get a little dicey.
Not time to count the chickens!
Running the country is not his strong suit… Economics are. Keep him where he is the best and most useful for the country and probably the most comfortable. At this point the US has such a long way to go to get out of the mess we’re in. Some people are just going to have to stay where they are the most exceptional.
Not interested in a first gay president.
Ha! You must have been asleep during the Barack Obama/Michael Levon Robinson administration.
I think most of America was asleep and felt sorry because of skin color so president for 8 years…bill
The economic team needs to remain in place for continuity.
I believe that would also remove slow walking by Senate confirmation. They already have the job so they keep on keepin’ on.
Well, DAD can help Rubio or Vance also!
You don’t think The Don will be steering whoever’s boat?
He certainly will…
At least he wouldn’t hide behind a shadow government.
Vance is joined at the hip with all the TechBros.; too much AI/info-harvesting,
not enough 4th Amendment.
Vance came out of nowhere like some other folks. What has Vance managed, what has Vance accomplished?
JD is just a talker.
JD is easily manipulated and impressed.
He’d be a globalist in no time.
He got a sponser Peter Thiel for his notch in government. He has no meaningful experience…..
Laura
Jared with Ivanka?!/
Don Jr. — seriously?
Whoever succeeds Pres. Trump should be:
Very honest, direct, fast, “main street”-business-oriented, interesting & excellent communicator; not “owned.”
Pro-capitalist; anti-criminal-capitalist.
Pro-constituents of US Constitution; anti-false-elite; anti-deep-state-bureaucrats; anti-teacher-union bosses.
I like Sen. Ron Johnson, but I don’t think he’d want it.
Compare VP Vance qualification with Obama (Pre-government)
About the same.
Came out of nowhere, inexperienced, immature and easily bought.
no more dynasties!
Don Jr. is no Don Sr.
Don Jr. gave us Pence and JD.
Both are losers.
I also do not like Don Jrs. plans pf having a Trump resort in Qatar.
Don Jr. JD and are close to Tucker Carlson and Muslims Omeed Malik who funds Tucker.
Ridiculous. What more do you want the man to do? He is as impressive as Bessent or Tulsi, RFK or Hegseth.
Ridiculous
For the time being, none of the Trump children/spouses should be running for office. There is too much potential crap out there on their finances, among other things, for them to have a real chance.
NO & NO
Rubio is Secretary of State not Attorney General. Rubio wears many hats but DOJ is not one of them.
The Trump administration has been focused on cutting off the money flows including firing/pushing out the embedded government workers that have fueled the corruption. The corruption cancer is being starved. Next year will be violent. The death throes of corruption factory will threaten and fight back regardless of the election results. If the Democrat crime gang gains power they will use it. If they do not they will subvert and motivate the loons to violence. Foreign actors will attempt to fuel Antifa and its fellow travelors.
this brought a chuckle – we may simply be waiting to see the couch picture announcing he has now been tasked with that job too!
The Never Satisfied™️
Hijack a great thread with a non-sequitur, Edition.
Exactly! I am stunned at the direction this thread took right out of the gate.
Trivial blathering about the Gang of Eight, future candidates for 2028, Scott Bessent’s personal life…..NONE OF IT MATTERS today in 2026. Much of the blathering will never matter.
What does matter-and this gets to the core reason why Sundance posted the Rubio video-is that the Trump Administration is strongly and legitimately confronting narco terrorism in the Western Hemisphere.
No other President EVER has done this. All by itself, this offensive against narco terrorism makes President Trump the greatest President since Washington.
Additionally, this video shows once again that Marco Rubio is the greatest Secretary of State in American history. The triumvirate of Trump, Rubio and Hegseth is racking up consequential accomplishments like we have never seen before.
And the work continues.
We would do well to focus on the big picture, stop “majoring in the minors,” and to appreciate the historic accomplishments of this administration.
We want Rubio for president.
He gets it and one sharp cookie that gets little attention.
He is already meeting with out future trade partners and establishing relationships.
The EU, UK, Canada are finished. They prefer to stay the suicidal destruction route.
I agree this administration is most open and informative for last 50 years, my adult life. I am very appreciative that they do not speak in circles and give direct answers…bill
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?
Society has always had their oligarchs. Tech is a substantial part of the US economy
Oligarchies are not a form of government allowed under our Constitution. They do serve globalists a means of monopolizing vast sections of the economy and installing politicians, groomed and bought.
Vance.
Don’t we have a lot of those now??
Too Too Many.
Yes, Ellison, Thiel, and Musk will look to get their profit wirh Vance, and I wouldn’t be surprised if Vance was their price to Trump for support in ’24 and ’26…
As Pence was for the RNC agreement not to block convention
Larry Fink-Via Blackrock controls more assets with his company. Then Vanguard and State Street are pretty close.
I want to believe. Rubio was clearly part of the problem prior to Trump’s 2nd term, however. I know it, you know it, everyone knows it. Dude was deep as the deepest state actor.
Something Trump did this time around has seemingly lifted a weight from Little Rubio and turned him into a steadfast MAGA warrior who gets all the jobs done, keeps all his ducks in a row, and all his public statements are in full alignment with what Trump and We, The People, would seemingly want. It was a 180 from Little Rubio circa 2016.
Is it real? Can we believe it? We’ve seen so many others before him talk the talk and walk the walk, and then they turn out to be Tucker Carlson or flip flop Lindsey Grahamnesty, or Candace Owens, or Alex Jones, or Patch-Eye McCain, etc, etc. The list grows longer every year.
Vance is likewise hugely concerning – the Republican Obama is pretty accurate. Do we trust him? It’s even harder to know, since we don”t have the history on him that we do with Rubio, even though Rubio’s history is Deep State. Trump said we can’t trust a man who isn’t even running under his own name (referencing Barry Soetoro) but the same can easily apply to Vance. Is Vance another anchor around Trump just like Mike Pence, or George Bush was to The Gipper?
Rubio has been a huge and welcome surprise, however. He and Stephen Miller are the workhorses of this administration and I am thankful for their skill and hard work on behalf of the people every day. I hope it continues.
Vance is another Pence
Sadly I believe that is a likely scenario. Pence managed to hold it together, at least publicly, until we needed him the most – and he helped them complete the coup on January 6th.
The VP is an effectively useless position, it’s just a placeholder in the event the President is unable to complete the full term for whatever reasons. Vance doesn’t get a chance to “shine” and do stuff like Secretary of State and half a dozen other job titles that Rubio holds right now. So even being the VP for a couple years now, he’s still a big unknown.
His backstory is deeply concerning for anyone who is aware of who and what Barry Soetoro was, that’s for sure.
The 2028 primaries are going to be interesting for sure. Will Vance and Rubio present a united front, or run against each other? Will the Sea Island group back Vance or DeSantis? Will Edward “born in Canada” Cruz run again? Frankly I still don’t see how Teddy is possibly eligible to be US President, since only one parent was a US citizen and he was not born in the US, but those rules seem to have been completely ignored these days. Sad.
Either way, without Trump at the helm, the GOPe will get back to being the GOPe it wants to be, no doubt, at the expense of We, The People.
“His backstory is deeply concerning for anyone who is aware of who and what Barry Soetoro was, that’s for sure.”
Indeed. His story is a prism mirror of Soetoro’s
I trust no person in politics who has changed their name 3x which Vance has just like Osama.
Many believe there is proof Osama wasn’t born in this country but the Auto Pen President is proof not much matters.
Considering the attack on our 4th Amendment rights, and the end of our true freedom that Stable Coins and AI represent, and Vance’s TechBros affiliation, ….
I just cannot trust him.
Pence was useless.
His presentation was a bloodless corpse— faded with zero affect.
compared with Marco Rubio, he’s still a wet behind the ears little boy.
Yes and more dangerous.
He lacks knowledge and experience.
100%
Pragmatic and accurate. Until they have been through the fire with Trump they cannot be trusted. Gabbard has.
Those who turned on him to serve the Uniparty, like Rubio (who opposed him as the President from his own party) and Vance (who baselessly attacked candidate Trump in 2016) can never absolutely be trusted.
Is it being the deepest of state that affords one the know-how to challenge the Deep State?
We only know what they allow us to know.
“We only know what they allow us to know.”
You answered your own question (very accurately).
We could ask a similar question about Scott Bessent, and what he knows from working for George Soros.
Both came away with invaluable, actionable intelligence.
To quote a movie line. “A man’s gotta know his limitations.” Senator Rubio knew his limitations. Secretary of State Rubio has a hell of a lot more power than Senator Rubio, and he is wielding that power well. In many respects Rubio is in a much more powerful position than he would be in if the postions were reversed. Think of Rubio as VP and Vance as Secretary of State. While you might not think that Vance would do as well as Rubio as Sec. of State, do you think Rubio as VP would be as effective? as visible?
I think that Pres. Trump, essentially, came to an agreement with Rubio’s plan to deal with this hemisphere, to include ousting the crooks and head-choppers of Mexico, and others further south,
–and liberating Cuba. Letting Rubio live *that* dream bought alllll the loyalty that we are now witnessing.
“I want to believe. Rubio was clearly part of the problem prior to Trump’s 2nd term, however. I know it, you know it, everyone knows it. Dude was deep as the deepest state actor.”
If you want to learn how to put out fires sometimes the best way is to hire an arsonist.
See also Bessent. Soros ties. Bessent knows the inner workings of soros, and quite possibly where the bodies are buried. Like Rubio, I had questions about why Trump brought those 2 in. So far, it appears my apprehension has been unfounded.
Rubio, Bessent and Homan are all solid picks.
While you’re at it, don’t forget Trump’s commerce secretary during his first administration, Wilbur Ross, who spent nearly a quarter of a century working for Rothschild & Co.
A mind like a steel trap! But 88 as of this writing.
I agree Rubio knows where the bodies are buried and how they got there but, that’s what this country needs in order to address the corruption you have to know the players and intricate playbook.
Rubio was offered an opportunity to actually feel he could make a difference I believe.
Watch Rubio when he speaks since joining President Trump.
Rubio exudes truth and is very measured but blunt at the same time.
Look where Rubio resides.
A military base typically reserved for high ranking military officers.
Not a typical residence for a Secretary of State but necessary due to security concerns.
Rubio has sacrificed a lot to serve this country.
that’s a very interesting comment. IMHO Mitch McConnell, and his fellow dinosaurs humiliated Marco Rubio when he came into the Senate and I think he’s made it his mission to use all of that against the very people that he works with to rise to the top and personally, I think he’s done an excellent job. look how quickly he rose to be the head of the senate select committee on intelligence. that’s the most powerful committee in our government.
Yes, that is how we are seeeng Rubio too.
Vance is weak and the only reason people are putting him out there is because he is Trump’s VP. That is a poor reason to support someone for President. It illustrates the laziness of the average voter. One should research candidates to see who they truly are. Vance is a big tech career political construct who is not qualified for President. Plus he is weak on the H1-b visa scam and the fraud perpetrated by Indian firms. Everything about Vance appears like a cardboard cut out as to what the swamp thinks conservative voters like in a person. He is best buddies with Ramaswamy, Thiel and Tucker Qatarlson.
Agree that Rubio is better qualified and more Presidential. The one that I think would be great is too young for 2028, Brandon Gill. He’ll only be 34.
“He’ll only be 34.”
Well, using Article 2 Section 1 requirements for the office, Rubio is ineligible too. We failed to enforce it for Obama, McCain or Calero why bother now?
But what the heck, as Bush the Second replied to his lawyers objections to the Patriot Act.. “don’t throw the Consitution in my face, its just a damn piece of paper”.
Not this again. Marco Rubio meets the natural born citizen requirements. The Supreme Court already ruled on this in United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 US. 649: anyone born on U.S. soil and subject to its jurisdiction is a natural born citizen, regardless of parental citizenship.
Although you could definitely make the case that it was a more narrow ruling which doesn’t apply to parents who are just visiting temporarily or present in the USA illegally, Marco Rubio still qualifies even then.
naturalborncitizenshipresearch.blogspot.com/2011/01/wong-kim-ark-for-dummies.html
BS!
Absolutely.
I agree with you.
The muckrakers still love Vance, due to his supposed reticence to the war with Iran.
They just love to see a little daylight between Vance and Trump,
to stoke their yearning for, “trouble” in the Executive Branch.
However, MAGA has to love Rubio for his no b.s. approach and stellar scorecard.
Agree 100%!!!
🎯
Well said. I also think he has ‘seen the MAGA’ light courtesy of DJT and would be the ideal successor.
We will not vote for JD.
Rubio would at least try to keep MAGA going and it will be a tough job.
JD would be clueless and manipulated.
This is awesome!!!
I agree, straight talk. And educating the audience; I particular admire the segue into Spanish followed by translation. True statesmanship.
It would be a blast if, after Rubio begins his first term he visits Japan. Then, during a press conference with Sanae Takaichi he suddenly answers a question in flawless Japanese!
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?
We will have to take down “Rolo Tomassi”. It’s a very hard thing to do. And I don’t believe Rubio nor our CIA head knows who most of the Rolos are yet.
Tulsi started it. But it’s a long winding road.
Huh? Rolo?
Tomassi, Rolo P. You know….
🤷
This will be removing some of the deep states sources of funding
How about taking out the Canadian Fetanyl labs in addition to the Latin American narco terrorists? Zero chance the Canadian government isn’t complicit in pumping that poison into every American city.
💯🎯 I don’t see how kinetic action in Canada can be avoided given we’re likely the second largest source of Fentanyl into America.
The CCP, Triads, Mexican cartels, Indians First Nations and lately some Islamic terrorists run huge operations here.
https://www.thebureau.news/
Frostback,
While it is pretty upsetting that our neighbors seem to work toward our demise,
they also seem rather willing to end it for their own citizens. Sick, really.
💯 🎯 Carney is charged by his WEF and CCP masters with facilitating the destruction of President Trump’s burgeoning America, which is an existential threat to their NWO.
He’s leveraging his long allyship of the CCP and the EU to do that. Hence his signing of a new military collaboration with China, and “almost enrollment” in the EU this week.
His only goal is to become a billionaire via the Great Green Grift which he instigated while running Brookfield. He cares not one jot about Canada and its people.
I’m located in SW Ontario, in the belly of the boomer beast. Their all-consuming TDS makes them laud Carney and they unwaveringly support his every move. They have no clue that they’re being sacrificed for his and his masters’ benefit.
It’s both surreal and very distressing.
Maybe by shutting down the cartels, another avenue of deep state funding is being cut off.
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.
How about Rubio/Bessent?
Ought-oh, Sundance.
The other countries best get ribbons (and, maybe, a few awards/ceremonial pins, or a Super Bowl ring) for Rubio’s next visits. Heck, they should start assembling SWAG bags, maybe name something after him. He might need a, Secretary of State Museum built in Miami to show off all the memorabilia. That ribbon/sash across our SoS is quite a sight! Parents must be so proud (can only imagine)!
excellent! lmao, shades of the “price is right”.
Secretary Rubio has the respect of South and Central America.
Sec Rubio, is the closest thing to a “real” Latin American the US has ever had represent us to South America. He has clout, has experience, knows what he speaks, looks like them and can talk to them in native language. That’s impressive and generating tons of goodwill and trust.
It will be interesting to see if the pro-family, anti-“trans woke crazy” Trump admin, with the tremendous help of Spanish speaking Marco Rubio’s Latin American World Tour (where many 1st and 2nd generation American citizens still have extended family members) end up moving the Hispanic vote by 50-60 points in our favor this Nov? I am praying that the drug money drying up will help us get rid of the Cali Dem Supermajority- a significant portion are owned by the cartels (as evidenced by the pro-cartel bills they propose and pass).
Because he treats them with respect.
That has been central to the Trump administrations. The various heads of state are viewed as CEO’s and given the basic respect they deserve. The Trump administrations do not look down on them as lesser vassals the way the former Euro powers do.
A guy at the top of his game-what an upgrade from Blinkers.
And union loons wanted Harris.
Blinky thought that he hit a home run with his garage band.
Bless his heart. I would say that Rubio’s performance should leave Blinky embarrassed.
However, Blinky’s performance should have already achieved that feat –assuming that Blinky has any self-awareness or the humility to self-assess.
day 1, 8 am, Blinky got pantsed and stuffed in his locker in Alaska. after that it was downhill.
Rubio has all the appearance of a man reborn – the kind of rebirth that comes from having been freed from someone keeping a gun to his head, and now pursues with a vengeance those who once held him down.
If he keeps this up, he’ll far outrun the image of what he was 8 years ago.
“freed from someone keeping a gun to his head”
any more details?
I think that was a metaphor but Rubio was known to have money problems during much of his political career.
This man needs to be the next President of the United States.
Unlike the claims by the but-what-about-ism crew, this Administration is capable of doing more than one thing at once.
(Actually, they all are, but MSM conditions people to think about the thing of the day and not the other hundreds of other activities that of are more import but don’t help The Narrative)
Much easier said than actually done.
A multi-100 $billion a year enterprise employing an estimated 500,000+ people won’t just walk away and call it a day.
I hope not. I’d like to see a few missiles through car roofs or mansion front doors.
This reads like the exact same thing that our politicians and judicial system accepts from a wide range of criminals.
As El Chapo said “Governments on both sides of the border run the drug trade”
One particular agency is heavily involved because cash leaves no trail and fills dirty budgets especially when run thru financial institutions run specifically by that agency.
Suitcases of cash are delivered routinely to those who actually harbor MS13 in their own homes.
Why would a Blue City mayor allow crime and drugs to flow without stop? Why would they allow 30 murders a weekend? Why would they not want help to save their cities from ruin? Why would they allow their citizens to be killed and poisoned?
WOW!! Just wow. What a superb performance by an incredible representative of the Trump Administration.
Ain’t no way Vance wins the nomination if Rubio runs. Impressive? Ya think! Hell yeah, Marco’s the real deal. Go ahead democrats, run your schoolgirl AOC against our guy!
Only impressive to those of us who actually seek out the news.
Most Americans will, sadly, never know.
I could not have been more wrong about Marco when Trump picked him. I was nervous and thought he would be part of the Et Tu, Brute crowd. Elated to be wrong. The more fascinating question is how Trump knew? Or maybe he brought Marco into The Light. Either way, he or Vance. Wow!
Impressive. Godspeed Marco.
I like how he flows from English to Spanish instantly.
For the first time in my life under the Trump administration there has been an actual war on drugs and not just phoney politician lip service. Countless lives have been destroyed by illegal drug trafficking into the US. Every city, town, village, neighborhood and rural community has been hurt by this scourge. Hurt economically, socially, and the deaths and loss of family members and relationships have been a cancer in America, all facilitated by greed, reckless behavior, and complacency. It has infected generations through complicit politicians, colleges, universities, and school systems.
Thank you President Trump for fighting to eradicate this scourge.
Damn he’s good.
Remind me again why we have concerns about him?
He was on a security committee that would have had inside information about some of the Get-Trump spy efforts and he said nothing.
Fishermen again. These media are so stupid. Fisherman don’t have 4 outboards all going full throttle heading in a straight line to the USA.
The huge fishing ships stripping the sea off the coast of Ecuador are Chinese Slave Fishing Boats.
Sink them all. Let them fish in their own waters.
China doesn’t have any fish left in its waters. They throw out those nets and scoop up everything.
The media morons asking questions in this video seemed overly focused on “digging up dirt” on the drug boat bombings.
Is it possible that they, along with their corporate masters, are owned by the narco terrorists?
I think most probably are owned or just afraid for their lives if the cross one.
Plata o plomo/Silver or lead.
Just let him alone without nominating him for president.
I keep thinking Presidential timber
It’s nice having adults in charge of our government, and moral, decent competent adults at that.
So love that Rubio can speak any Latino language. No one will fill the shoes of President Trump. No one is running for President yet, but I’d go for Rubio in a heartbeat.
Vance taking credit for uncovering fraud is a joke as he is just the face of it and doesn’t take any heat. Add on the whole Palintir support behind him makes me a very very suspicous cat.
If he had anything on the ball, lhan Omar would be long gone by now.
This really is an impressive movement – Homeland and Immigration services removing the illegals while the Secretary of State fronts the work with the nations so that those illegals actually want to, perhaps even looking forward to, returing to their home countries.
a proverbial take the lollipop away (removal) while putting an even shinier toy (desire to go back home) into the hand in a two birds, one stone operation.
It’s really quite a brilliant endeavor; time will tell, but really something to watch unfold.
I have a very suspicious feeling that Victor Davis Hanson is a treehouse reader.
And supported DeSantis too?
Mr. Hanson has stated that he has a twin brother he hasn’t spoken to in several years over his support for President Trump.
Pretty ugly and childish behavior but that is where we are these days.
My respect for Rubio grows every day! Outstanding representation!!!
Does Trump bring Jefferson level knowledge and thinking to Presidency?!/
Everyone here seems to want SOS Rubio to graduate to a different job since he’s doing so well at his current one.
He’s the best Secretary of State I can remember. In fact, his performance is so steady and stellar that I would like to see him continue in this role, hopefully for several more terms. President Trump’s administration would be far less effective without him, and several other crucial individuals … which is why he’s had to fight for the confirmation of every nominee, unlike most presidents.
We’re not going to improve on Secretary Rubio; let him continue being great at where he is.
“Left wing groups have destroyed these countries and many governments are in alliance with NarcoTerrorists.”
Rubio’s description fits exactly with the performance of US Democrat/Communists. We need to remove the Communist cancer from the US.
The leaders of Blue States and Blue Cities need to leave the US. They are aligned with the NarcoTerrorists and Islamists. Democrat/Communists need to relinquish their citizenship and be relocated to a more suitable country.
Wow. Well done.. President Trump’s Apprentice
JDV’s pathetic excusing of Tucker has crossed him off my list for 2028, if not for VP. That presser was embarrassing and made him look owed.
I think The Pool Kid might come up against the hard reality of the SeeAYeAy and their Agency self-funding model using installed drug cartels in sheetholes.
A very sharp mind on that guy, and he speaks with great insight and understanding of the problems and articulates that well…A loyal soldier to date.
Keep in mind we will be voting for a person who will command the most powerful military in the world during a war (CIC), and, run the largest most sophisticated business in the world (CEO) and represent America during all important global transactions. Voting for personality or emotion got us where we are.
“Voting for personality or emotion got us where we are.”
True. I am tired of the cheering sections. The establishment tried to kill our President to retain an iron grip. This is serious and the future of our nation still at stake.
Trump was a complete outsider- a true patriot with no other interest than saving this nation. That pretty much every Republican opposed him, including Vance and Rubio, says a lot.
Watch for those who are willing to go through the fire.
We need outsiders.
No “uhs” and bi-lingual. Lots of talent there.
At this point in history we need fighters to lead us. Fearless ones. I just don’t see JD having the fight of a Stephen miller or now Rubio. If you can’t fight, like mean tweets , fight, you need to back away and wait your turn when nice guys will win. That day, ain’t today. IMO
Trump 2028 🔥🔥🔥
Dream ticket Marco & Tulsi 2028.
‘Not sure Tulsi could handle the job, but willing to give her an opportunity; if only to strike fear in the filthy hearts of the deep staters.
Precisely plus get women vote. Rubio should help Hispanic voters.
At least Noboa sounds a little more conservative than Brazils President. I know we work with Venezuela’s new one but all these Latin American countries better fall in line! El Salvador has done an incredible job!
Luis Ignacio Lula da Silva is a dyed – in – the – wool Marxist.
I’ve tracked Rubio from the early days when the filthy media attacked him for purchasing a boat; thru his gang of 8 participation; and now as a seasoned and well reasoned player in the game of the century. Young Marco has had a front row seat at DC’s shenanigan’s ball. I discern that he has made course corrections and has matured into a stable statesman. A free and democratic Latin America will be a firewall against the globalist high table of quadrillionaire parasites. Now more than ever, the good ship America’s best future has a need for a bi-lingual patriot at the helm. On the vast, flat landscape of presidential wannabes, Marco Rubio is an oak tree.
Marco for President. Marco will carry Pres Trumps legacy and policies forward.
I cannot see Vance doing it, especially after he was schmoozing with Tucker Carlson
JD just had his Sista Soulja opportunity and he utterly whiffed it. His “Friends can have disagreements…” bullshit is pure doublespeak. His loyalty is to his leader’s arch enemy… Trump needs him out.
we all know the tech’s want JD but I’m gonna tell you, compared to Marco Rubio, JD’s like a little boy still wet behind the ears. I have yet to see JD do anything as consequential as Marco Rubio. my opinion based on observation. no notes, no teleprompter-knowledge.
First word that comes to mind, ‘milquetoast.’ Rubio makes all others come across as milquetoast when speaking to reporters or interviewers. Some you feel like reaching through and slapping them to ‘man up!’ Not Rubio.
I read on another website that running for VP is the safest positioning for Rubio. I forget some of the arguments, but it is true that if Vance loses in ’28, Rubio could still run for President four years later. If Rubio runs for President in ’28 and loses, then he is out completely. I don’t know, though. There are so many other variables. I would rather have Vance as president when Trump can advise him, and “save” Rubio for later, but I don’t think Vance is going to listen to Trump so much if he wins in ’28, which would really complicate things.
If we do not guide, advise and give security to the right wing South American countries and contain the cartels (better if we wipe them out jointly), the cartels will become strong enough to get in bed with every one of our enemies worldwide and crush us slowly from without and within.
All Rubio’s comments on the left wing governments and their death march of destruction, economic, judicial, governmental corruption, wherever they are in South America is documented history now. Failed states murder their citizens through outright barbarianism, unjust incarceration, fear and oppression.
We can’t have CHINA own South American Governments, to get their hands on oil or minerals. Period. Not to mention North American either.
The CARTELS will assist CHINA for more money and power.
China isn’t building Cruise ship fleets.
Great job, Rubio. Compare and contrast this with how Obama lectured Duterte in the ASEAN over his drugs crackdown, thus arrogantly fracturing a longstanding alliance. The difference with this administration is night and day.
EVERY politician has a handler. The best you can hope for is to vote for the guy who is doing you the most good right now.
The Energizer Bunny of our State Department! Nowhere is sight is a reset button!
I just watched this impromptu presser and I’m beginning to believe that Marco Rubio has been red pilled. JMO
