BOOM! Marco Rubio Shuts Down Reporter Peddling Left Wing Talking Points on Iran (VIDEO)

Screencap of Twitter/X video.

A reporter tried to push left wing talking points about Iran while questioning Secretary of State Marco Rubio this week. It did not go well for him.

The premise of the question was that Iran has been facing sanctions for years, so the Trump administration is not doing anything new.

Rubio took the reporter to school and it was a thing of beauty.

Transcript via the Red Wave Press:

Secretary of State Marco Rubio CLAPS BACK when a reporter tries to claim there have been sanctions on Iran forever — implying the administration has done nothing different — which is completely and UTTERLY false. “Never has Iran ever faced the inability to sell energy in the global market like they are today. They’ve never faced this and other things that we’re doing, which I can’t discuss, that are having a huge impact on the economy.”

Reporter: “There’s been sanctions for many years. The embargo has been on for quite a few months now. Is there a timeline?”

Marco Rubio: “No, it hasn’t been on for a few months. For example, the blockade that was initiated and it was stopped as part of the MOU that they themselves violated. They violated the MOU. They canceled the MOU by attacking shipping again. So if you look at the blockade, they got oil out during the MOU period. That oil that’s now on the water is almost out. So at that point, they won’t have any revenue. So you say sanctions have been in place. Never has Iran ever faced the inability to sell energy in the global market like they are today. They’ve never faced this and other things that we’re doing, which I can’t discuss, that are having a huge impact on the economy.”
