GOP Senator Marco Rubio of Florida may disagree with fellow Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene's unhinged conspiracy theories, but the people he's got a real problem with are the media who report on her.

In a recent tweet, Rubio denounced the media who make conspiracy theorists "famous" by reporting on them.

Twitter immediately called out Rubio, pointing out ignoring the bad behavior of conspiracy theorists enables them to continue.



Many called out Rubio's support for President Donald Trump, who was well known for spreading conspiracy theories on a regular basis.



Rubio is willing to speak about what's right, but many feel he stops a bit short of doing what's brave.



Rubio's support for the former President definitely made it easier for many Twitter users to dunk on him.



In response to his tweet, many called on Rubio to denounce Greene by name.


Marco Rubio doesn't seem to have convinced many people with his tweet, but maybe some of the responses to it will change his mind and drive him to denounce violent rhetoric and conspiracy theories.

Trump Roasted After Sharing Quote Praising Him For Winning 'His First Nobel Prize'—And Yeah, Nope

President Donald Trump was widely mocked after he published a Truth Social post in which he quoted Energy Secretary Chris Wright, who claimed this year's Nobel Prize in physics is by an extension a win for the Trump administration.

The Nobel Foundation awarded this year's physics prize to John Clarke (UC Berkeley), Michel H. Devoret (Yale and UC Santa Barbara), and John M. Martinis (UC Santa Barbara and Qolab) for “the discovery of macroscopic quantum mechanical tunneling and energy quantization in an electric circuit."

CEO predicts society accepts robot death

In 2009, Waymo introduced its first fleet of driverless cars, sleek pods equipped with sensors, AI, and a “Sense, Solve, Go” system designed to navigate roads autonomously without human input. According to the company, its robotaxis now experience 91 percent fewer crashes and 91 percent fewer serious injuries than human drivers over the same distances.

But even as Waymo brags about its spotless stats, co-CEO Tekedra Mawakana is already bracing for the inevitable: the first fatality caused by one of its cars, and she thinks society will accept it.

Democratic Senate Candidate Blasts Trump Administration With Reality Check Over Their Withholding Of SNAP Funding

If you ask pretty much any conservative, they will tell you that the government shutdown and all its blowback is entirely the Democrats' fault.

This includes the cancellation of SNAP benefits, or the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program previously known as "food stamps," beginning in November, which will cut off access to food to millions of people.
