Could this be the next POTUS. One smart cookie and on the complete opposite end of the intelligence spectrum than anyone the Democrats have on offer.

It would be beneficial for the country to avoid another Democratic administration. The Democrats lack the ability to govern.

    Not given, returned. Back when e had a nuclear treaty with Iran that Iran was complying with. Then came Trump. Now we have an illegal war.

    Rubio predicted that Iran would build stuff to defend itself. Genius. I like better though his reason on Tues. for the US attacking Iran: We attacked Iran because we knew Iran would defend itself bec

Well the thing is with media you need critical thinking. What shouldn't happen is only one side or the other is deemed to be "reliable and trustworthy". Sadly too many people are only exposed to one side or the other. I think it's fair to say though that bias is rather evident more on the "hate Trump" side media. This forum is a reasonable example of MSM reliance. I honestly can't remember seeing a positive article about Trump on here.

That load of B.S. does not answer the question I asked which was;

"So what is YOUR reliable source for reliable news!

No videos please, just so called facts!"

Please answer the question this time with facts not BS!

Rubio looks the most likely.

Ya can't dislike Obama enough, the king of social justice advocacy . He thought by facilitating support for the Country the leaders would put good use of it and spend it on humanitarian causes.

The Wall Street Journal revealed this week that in January, the Obama administration secretly airlifted $400 million in cash to Iran.

This week ?

That old news, and surprised so many didn't follow or know about it, back when it happened. To busy with all the Trump distractions, I reckon ... Damn Effective

That's right, people still following MSM for news and info ... cheesy

No wonder the left does have any clues of the how what when & whys of the world.

Damn mushrooms, feed 'em sh!t & keep them in the dark.

Sorry it was a quote from years ago. I forgot to assign tke quote marks mate.

Anybody that would follow in the footsteps of the Homeland Security Act of 2002 & who would

support the Save America Act while encouraging assimilation & free Market systems.

And right on topic with this thread, as how could anyone not know, what Rubio is talking about or the $1.3B & $.4B money to Iran, when it happened. Should we even mentions Clinton's state dept. selling off uranium to RU, about the same time (Clinton Foundation / Uranium One), ring any bells. Obama's administration ... FFS, damn treasonous.

Hint ... Trump distraction, again

Thanks for demonstrating your cluelessness. In fact, the State Dept was only one of several depts ihat signeed off n what you call "selliing off uranium to RU" In fact it was mainly the Commerce Dept's issue but several other depts were required to sign off on the deal. The first Trump administration looked for evidence to pursue a criminal investigation and found nothing.

Since the conflict has started, Iran has seen an extra $3 billion swell its coffers because of the increase in the price of oil, eclipsing the $400m in 2015. The collapse of the ruble means that these days, that $3bn goes much much further that the $400m in 2015, which was one of Rubio's main objections, that the cash would allow significant upgrades to Iran's defences (it barely made a dent on the estimated cost of their nuclear programme).

The $400m amounted to about 8% of the Iranian 2015 defence budget; a significant sum, but not exactly game changing. But if $400m was a truely remarkable amount that allowed Iran, as Rubio claimed, to significantly increase its missile forces, then the money its making right now will pay for a nice little upgrade of battle proven Russian and North Korean munitions, and the shove to allow them to finally retire their now ancient US and UK made armoured vehicles. Prior to the war, Iran's defence budget was $8bn, or which $40m was spent on imported equipment, mostly Russian.

The Mooch sharing some thoughts on Rubio and Vance

Vance is already hinting he won't be running (pregnant wife).
