Dem Congressman Urges Rubio to Defy Trump
Following a contentious White House meeting where President Trump berated Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, Secretary of State Rubio issued a statement praising Trump’s actions. Rep. Swalwell sharply criticized Rubio’s statement, highlighting the perceived incongruity between Rubio’s public support and his apparent discomfort during the meeting itself. The meeting concluded without a signed minerals deal, and Trump, while promising continued military aid, expressed a desire to limit its extent. Zelenskyy left the White House without securing the deal Trump demanded.
