Marco Rubio has many titles, except when it’s time to take accountability. He may be the Secretary of State, but Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are negotiating with foreign leaders behind his back. When did the Senate confirm them as our representatives on the world stage?

If this is true, it’s staggering. You don’t outsource sensitive Pentagon IT to engineers sitting in China and call it “efficient.” Cost savings? No- that’s a national security self-own. Oversight failed, and it needs fixing fast. #CyberSecurity #NationalSecurity #China

Our government wants to kill people. Simple as that. They want more agents so they can wage war against the American people. They want a police state. They want us scared. We can no longer rely on our politicians or law enforcement to protect anyone.
