Rubio Exposes Duckworth’s $35 Billion Attack… Then She GOES SILENT

Secretary of State Marco Rubio was confronted by Senator Tammy Duckworth over a $35 billion figure she cited as the cost of the Iran conflict — claiming it exceeded the entire $35.1 billion State Department budget request for 2027. Rubio disputed the framing and used his response to lay out a list of active diplomatic wins — Azerbaijan, Armenia, India, Pakistan, Lebanon, Israel — arguing the State Department has been operating effectively on last year's budget. Duckworth did not get a chance to respond. Did her $35 billion number hold up, or did Rubio expose the framing? SUBSCRIBE →    / @mrlboydreacts   Road to 1,100,000 subscribers.
