Summary
Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" talks about Marco Rubio's tense interview with CBS News' Margaret Brennan where he explained what the mainstream media is getting wrong about the capture of Venezuela's corrupt dictator Nicolás Maduro; Marco Rubio explaining to Meet the Press' Kristen Welker the real reason Trump ordered the capture of Nicolás Maduro and why it has nothing to do with Venezuela's oil; Donald Trump publicly admitting that Columbia's Gustavo Petro may be the next leader targeted for drug trafficking; Joe Rogan sharing a mind-blowing chart of how drug overdose deaths have fallen off a cliff since Donald Trump became president and started targeting fentanyl and drug boats; Zohran Mamdani saying the quiet part out loud about his love of collectivism at his inauguration as the new mayor of New York City; CNN's attempt to debunk Nick Shirley for exposing how bad the Minnesota fraud within the Somali community really was and how Tim Walz did nothing to stop it; Donald Trump announcing his renewed push to denaturalize Ilhan Omar, so that she can be deported; Elon Musk making amends with Donald Trump; and much more.
