Rubio Slams Latest Media Conspiracy About JD Vance

Secretary of State Marco Rubio dismissed suggestions Thursday that Vice President JD Vance is overshadowing him in the Trump administration’s negotiations with Iran, calling the premise of the question “silly.”

Speaking with reporters in Bahrain, Rubio was asked whether he wanted a more direct role in the talks rather than having Vice President Vance take the lead.

Rubio immediately rejected the characterization.
