Rubio Calls Maduro ‘Intolerable,’ Ignores His Own Donors
Senator Marco Rubio, who received $1,478,575 from the pro-Israel lobby during his career (OpenSecrets.org data, as of 2024), now decries 'intolerable' foreign behavior. This from a politician whose campaign coffers have been consistently filled by a foreign-aligned lobby pushing specific geopolitical agendas in Washington. The hypocrisy is so thick you could cut it with a knife—or perhaps, a
US-made bomb. Rubio’s 2024 condemnation of Venezuela rings particularly hollow given his consistent support for massive military aid packages to Israel, despite its own documented human rights abuses and actions deemed war crimes by international bodies. One might wonder if the 'intolerable' threshold only applies when the foreign entity isn't showering US politicians with campaign cash. It's
almost as if national security concerns are a geopolitical cudgel, not a consistent moral standard.
