There are some things I’d never do in life. I’d never challenge Usain Bolt to a race. I’d never have a conversation with Clarence Thomas and pretend to know more about the law than he does. I’d never volunteer to tackle Derrick Henry, and I’d never try to tell Peyton Manning how to throw a football. And I’d certainly never try to outsmart Secretary of State Marco Rubio on something like foreign intelligence.
But Margaret Brennan doesn’t seem to know how to stay in her lane. I guess she enjoys embarrassing herself on national television? That’s the only thing I can come up with.
Rubio made the media rounds on Sunday morning, and among his appearances was a spot on “Face the Nation.” As you can imagine, Donald Trump’s decision to beautifully bomb Iran’s nuclear facilities was the topic of discussion. Brennan seemed to fancy herself some sort of foreign intelligence expert, and as you can also imagine, Rubio made her look like an absolute moron.
The interview started with Brennan asking about Iran’s capabilities to retaliate against the United States.
Rubio responded by saying that Iran should choose peace, but that the United States is prepared for anything the regime could throw our way. He also doubled down on the fact that this was not an attack on the country but simply a move to eliminate their nuclear capabilities. He concluded:
So this mission was a very precise mission. It had three objectives, three nuclear sites. It was not attack on Iran. It was not an attack on the Iranian people. This wasn’t a regime change move. This was designed to degrade and/or destroy three nuclear sites related to their nuclear weaponization ambitions, and that was delivered on yesterday. What happens next will now depend on what Iran chooses to do next. If they choose the path of diplomacy, we’re ready. We can do a deal that’s good for them, the Iranian people and good for the world. If they choose another route, then there will be consequences for that.
