Marco Rubio Tweets Out Death Threat To Venezuelan Leader


On Sunday, Marco Rubio sent out a cryptic warning to Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro that only included a before and after picture of Moammar Gaddafi. One picture was before US intervention and one was right before Gaddafi was brutally murdered. Rubio’s tweet can only be viewed as a threat of what the United States wants to do to Maduro in Venezuela, as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

Marco Rubio Bought Gun to Be 'Last Line of Defence between ISIL and My Family'

THE TELEGRAPH: Republican presidential candidate says he bought a gun on Christmas Eve in part to protect his family from Isil

Senator Marco Rubio has said he bought a gun on Christmas Eve because he is "the last line of defence between Isis [Isil] and my family".

The Republican presidential candidate said "millions of Americans" buy guns so they will be prepared to fend off attacks from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (Isil), or otherwise protect their families.

He suggested in an interview on Sunday that Isil had provided some of the impetus for his most recent gun purchase.

"I have a right to protect my family if someone were to come after us," he said on CBS' Face the Nation. "In fact, if Isis were to visit us or our communities at any moment, the last line of defence between Isis and my family is the ability I have to protect my family." » | David Lawler, Washimgton | Monday, January 18, 2016

Marco Rubio Leads Way for 2016 Republican Challengers

THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH: It may only be less than two weeks since they lost to Barack Obama, but potential Republican candidates are already jostling for position for the 2016 presidential election race.

Marco Rubio, the 41-year-old Florida Senator who is the Republicans’ most prominent Latino, led the way with a speech this weekend, calling for immigration reform and lower taxes as the party seeks to make itself more broadly acceptable.

"The way to turn our economy around is not by making rich people poorer, but make poor people richer," Senator Rubio said, taking a swipe at Mr Obama's plans to raise taxes on millionaires.

He was speaking at a birthday celebration for the Republican Governor of Iowa, a swing state whose 2016 caucus will officially get the race to find a Republican candidate under way.

Mr Rubio, a Cuban American with a flashing smile and a rags-to-riches back story, presents a stark contrast with the staid, establishment figure of 65-year-old Mitt Romney whose campaign conspicuously failed to win over Hispanic, black or young women voters.

"Our workers are not making as much as they made in the same jobs 25 years ago," Mr Rubio said. "My father was a bartender. My mother was a maid at a hotel. They were able to provide for us a standard of living." » | Peter Foster, Washington | Sunday, November 18, 2012
