Maybe lil' Marco should look at the government oppression occurring within US borders.

It’s as if they don’t see their actions as being harmful.

Pot, meet kettle.

Yes. Now it's mask off who America really is & what it stands for. It also helps to make it clear that Rubio post is just self-justification for war with #China, when JD is President. It's going to be hard to justify invading #Greenland, a full #NATO member. NATO’s primary purpose must be proven.

💪🤬

He has got to be kidding. What a hypocrite. USA has zero right to comment on anything. Zero moral authority- zero moral compass.

Hell is empty and all the devils are here.

Shut it Marco. Fix your own place first by stopping the rampant fascism, and the warrantless arrests. Then talk to the rest of the world.

Look at you speaking about moral authority while you remain silent on the bipartisan approved Israeli GENOCIDE of Palestine. Fraud. #Shitlibbery #BlueMAGA #GenocidalUniparty

Fuck Marco and his Boss.

Holy shit. Rubio's cognitive disconnect should be grounds for involuntary institutionalized commitment.

Yeah, HKG, the only government allowed to infringe on US citizens’ rights is the US government.

Freedom for me but not for thee.

The advisers saying “don’t you accuse anyone. “. Rubio is a pathetic waste of skin.

You never had any. But the mask of off now.

Came here to say this very thing.

Sadly I think white Americans are just now realizing what black Americans have known for centuries.

We sure have. I’m shocked that Rubio would have the gall to make a public statement like this. The hypocrisy is mind boggling since suppressing political opposition is alive and well here in the United States of America.

What is wrong with these idiots?🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Who is we and stop sharing images of information you should just link to…

Rubio is as guilty as all the other morons in Trumps cabinet!!

Agreed.

Yes, we have. We must trample everything that trump wants to change. His changes do nothing but hurt America and its citizens.

Oh my God Marco!!!! You would have the nerve to point fingers!!!

Let me restate Rubio’s post: “You can’t do that, only the Trump Administration can do that.”

Coming from the same people that are trying to do this in AMERICA

What hypocrisy

But does the US condemn sending American citizens and those who are here legally to jail or deported. Don't throw stones Rubio

We Got nothing. Sit down Markie.

No one should listen to America on anything anymore.

Marco Rubio:

Maybe the US should lead by EXAMPLE & STOP arresting activists for exercising their freedom of expression, INCLUDING the arrest of US citizens... The level of audacity mixed with stupidity from the idiots running the USA, is truly astounding.

George - we've lost "all moral authority" on everything with this lawless troop of miscreants running the government.

The US never had it in the first place.

@georgetakei.bsky.social Five alarm fire.

Someone starts talking about religion to me and I walk away and tell them why. I do not want to hear about their religious beliefs.

Please, allow me to tell you about my belief system: It’s not the Force — it’s just my enduring love of Ewan McGregor.

So, your religion is fine with grown men raping little boys and girls and protecting the people in power? That is ONE of the many reasons why people are turning AWAY from ALL of the religions, but especially the "Christian" one. You don't even practice what is in your "holy" book tells you to do!

And that employee can disengage from the conversation by politely telling them to... FUCK OFF!!!

Oh for Christ sake.

They may, and I may refuse, citing my own “religion.”

I don't care about anyone's faith, I am not interested. I don't want to hear it. In fact I am sick and tired of all the fakes and phonies pushing gawd gawd gawd (their fcked up version) on the rest of us. I'm starting to hate them. My patience was all used up long ago.

All employees have the right not to be proselytized to.

and the listener can get up and walk out after assuring the talker that *proving* a religion correct is impossible.

FFS

Let the fighting begin! 🤬

So here is the situation this is setting up (based on EOs he has already signed): joe-bob walks up to you,unprompted, and says join his Westboro Baptist Church and you are not religious and say "your religion is evil" he then files a complaint and you get fired.

You can discuss your imaginary friend with your shrink

They have to realize the same thing is going on in this country.

Rubio doesn't even have the freedom of his own speech. If he diverges one iota from the script, Daddy Donny would scold him, and little Marco is deathly afraid of being scolded.

Sort of like the pot calling the kettle black

Masked secret police are making American citizens disappear as if this was Pinochet's Chile.

I thought they were stopping with the woke Lib shit? What does this admin care about freedom of expression???

Now do you see Manson Family "Tex" Watson? Doubt your NDA covers all the Trumpf candy factory names.

We might as well be living in HK! Does Little Marco live under a rock?

The crazy amount of hypocrisy from the right never ceases to amaze me.

Rubio has no place in that fight!

What a fucking hypocrite

Rubio’s hypocrisy knows no bounds.

Never has

Marco you have no room to talk, coward

Unfucking believable! The nerve! 😠

"Only we are allowed to suppress political opposition...how dare someone else do it. Merica!" - Rubio

Wow, talking about the pot calling the kettle...!

How do they not see? Are they blind, idiots, ignorant or conniving, manipulative, and delusional? Do they really believe this shit? I mean, I understand Bubba in his trailer, but Marco Rubio? I thought he had a teeny tiny bit of self-awareness. 🤦🏾‍♀️

Do they know how hypocritical their words and actions are and are okay with it or have they told the lies so often they have convinced themselves of their validity?

Autocrats reject criticism and suppress all opposition. Speech is free only for their supporters, and that freedom comes at a cost. Rising fascism worldwide inspired me to write an allegorical trilogy on its perils: unjust war; failed democracy; race-based oppression. See: amazon.com/dp/B0B1JNBCTK?

Does Little Marco have brain damage or something?

If "the U.S." is going to condemn anything, let someone whose name is recognized and respected somewhere beyond 1600 Pennsylvania Ave sign the condemnation. Seeing Marco Rubio condemn anything...geez, I can literally feel the eyerolls from across the Pacific.

Yeah, they were calling for the release of the Epstein files, Marco!

Crime syndicate running our Nation. Justice not only failed, it tied the hands of Justice seekers. Never forget.

Donald is nefarious & the people who like him Enjoy his bluntness & revenge Apparently that religion they repeat in a pew is a waste of time It makes them Worse I have more respect for atheist or pagan believers because at least their separated from all the indoctrination & have evolved

"Do as we say; not as we do!"

thought anerican christian’s changed it to, do unto other before they do unto you?

Sadly is too true.

Accuse your opponent of what you yourself have been -- or plan to be -- doing, and make it sound bad when they do it. Propaganda 101 a la Joseph Goebbels.

They didn't have the fucking internet in that nazi shitgibbon's day.

No, but they had radio, newspapers and movies, and they worked them as well as Bannon did TV and the internet in our day.

Mark my words: the internet is a deadly weapon against them. They would not be working so damn hard to suppress free speech on the internet under the guise of child-proofing it if the internet wasn't a deadly threat to their propaganda mills.

I think it's about controlling the narrative. The internet is their primary tool for disseminating their propaganda, but they want to be in control of the content so that counter-information can't be sent out the same way. I suspect that we agree but look at the problem in different ways.

Precisely. 🫶🫶

Sorry George. I'm so sick of his hypocrisy. It just came out.

Rubio can suck my dick.

Yes we have

Shut it Rubio. You lost your right to moralise!

What about the people being kidnapped and disappeared right here in America? Or perhaps the ones who are missing for 2 days now on the flotilla headed to Gaza to bring aid? Like what moral high ground does America have to claim any other nation is in the wrong?

they have no authority here

They should be called the "Hypocritic Party", especially when it comes to their stance on being "pro-life" but willing to torture people in what are literally concentration camps.

It makes me wonder are they even human? How do they have no empathy? How are they so detached?

I hear you. My neck aches from shaking my head at them. They've turned their moral compasses upside down.

They aren’t human

I followed you I think I’ve seen a few of your comments and I have felt in agreement with your views.

I feel I must agree with you. For if they were human they’d have humanity, empathy, morals, values, integrity and intelligence all of which they are utterly lacking.

💯💯💯 Well said, Jay.

None. Zip. Zilch. Nada.

Guess it’s only cool when the US does it. 🤦

It’s now a case of the pot calling the kettle black.

Lil Marco is on China's side!

Marco, have you noticed what’s going on HERE in the country you’re living off of?

Rubio doesn’t give a rat’s ass. It’s all good as long as Trump’s boots are kept nice and shiny. For all miscreants in the MAGAT cult it’s money, greed and power over country and people. That’s not debatable.

It wasn't lost, George, it was thrown away by this current myopic and malignant administration. I would blame Trump however he is incompetent at so many things there is no way he did this by his lonesome self. He had to have minions to carry out his braindroppings. Trump is a pimp

Tan suit - Epstein, ICE, BBB, Gaza, Ukraine, Powell, inspectors general, Trump coin, Qatar, Signal gate, measles, FEMA, USAID, NPR, federal workers, climate change, WHO, Jan 6 pardons, Ashli Babbitt $M, Colbert, Iran, tariffs, El Salvador, Greenland, Harvard, NIH Are we great yet?

Please little Marco

We need to send Marco a pot and Kettle

That little twatwaffle has no sense of decency. Or irony, apparently.

Vut a joke

My response to Marco Rubio, in haiku, on behalf of Hong Kong Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha

Rubio is still upset that world leader have called him names or it could be his tiny hands.

Never had.

Rubio to Guantan. Bay!

What a hoot! After all the arrests and threatened deportation of people for expressing their opinion in this country!!! Seriously??????

Hong Kong should reply “we’re just following your lead, USA”

Exactly!

Pot meet kettle.

At least Hong Kong actually issued warrants for the arrests

This is the pot calling the kettle black

Did that hypocrite Marco Rubio really post that! OMG- what does he think he and the Dictator’s regime is doing in America? OMG

Marco Rubio‘s lack of self-awareness is frightening

You can't condemn them and not take a look at what's going on in our own country. What the hell is wrong with this administration?

Time to put your cup on...

It's amazing how fast the Trump administration destroyed the reputation of America. It's not something we'll likely be able to repair without decades of work and humility.

It’s amazing how the American people destroyed the reputation of America by electing Trump twice. Trump is merely the manifestation of American stupidity, selfishness, and lack of empathy.

I can't disagree, but I'd add American conceit to that list as well. We've been taught about "American Exceptionalism" for decades, but somehow, it was never conveyed that it was a collective exceptionalism, not individual. So now, most Americans think they are exceptional by birth.

They do?

Generally, yes. In the worst cases, they are the people that flock to MAGA and other forms of nationalism. A certain air of superiority to the rest of the world is fairly prevalent in the US.

MAGA is what percent of the American population?

I think you are working under a misapprehension. I am not suggesting MAGA or the right wing makes up a majority of Americans. I am suggesting that the conceit of exceptionalism that is prevalent makes it easy for movements like MAGA to gain power, even though they aren't a majority.

MAGA is a small % of the population. We have been ruled by the minority for years.

Exceptionalism is not gaining hold of more people. Christian nationalism, MAGA, oligarchy.. we are under a coup.

The conceit of exceptionalism is certainly less prevalent now than it was 10 years ago, thanks in no small part to the humiliation a lot of Americans feel at having Trump and his movement destroying America's reputation, human rights, and technological advantages.

All amerikkkans are trash now. There is no redemption. Fuck, GERMANY is less fascist than you lot. They actually fucking LEARNED THEIR LESSON.

Here you go: Approximately 16 percent of the U.S. adult population identifies as "MAGA," which is a slight increase from previous years but down from a peak of 20 percent.

Did I claim that it was only MAGA that believes they are exceptional by virtue of being born in the US? The people who believe it the most, undeservedly, tend to gravitate toward MAGA and isolationism, but it exists in varying degrees throughout our population.

Civil Michael, no need to get so upset! I am well aware of obnoxious Americans that wear their entitled attitudes loudly, that give us a bad rep. I disagree that “most” feel exceptional. Especially now.

You are free to disagree. I'm not upset with you, I just want to be sure you understand the point that I am making, whether you agree with it or not. It was clear from your replies that I failed to explain my point in a way that you understood.

33 million fuckwits voted for Trump. That's almost the entire population of Canada. I'm fucking sick of all you amerikkkans. 33 million nazis is 33 million fucking nazis.

That’s a pretty ridiculous statement. Reducing millions of people to a single label ignores the diversity of thought and experience among them

They are gullible and dumb. I don’t think they have thoughts so much as feelings of fear and resentment. But mostly just racism. And yeah I don’t give a fuck about their thoughts. Because they brought us here and they should be ashamed of themselves. Sadly most are not.

We are under a coup, minority rule. Yes, MAGA is gullible and many are unintelligent. Or racist. Or selfish. And misogynistic. Or a combination of all. My response to the post was they are generalizing the minority to all of us. Widely inaccurate.

If it goosesteps like a nazi it's a fucking nazi. I don't write the rules.

Ok. And according to you, everyone in America. Got it.

Exactly. He's giving the people what they want. They want the freedom to be dicks.

Why would the rest of the world ever trust the US again? We have to rid ourselves of the Republican administration and reinvent America.

the thing about the moral high ground is you can only point down if you want to be taken seriously

I think they misspelled “celebrates.”

It’s time for Americans to be studying the Like Water protest movement from Hong Kong.

Mr. Rubio is tone deaf to his own country.

Apparently we are now on human rights watch lists. I'm not sure this is the best link, but it is still sad. A simple google search appears to confirm it. www.hrw.org/united-states

www.nytimes.com/2025/07/28/u...

If I were a large rock, i would like to fall on Marco’s head, from at least a mile abovez

Never had it sir

Beg to differ: We have not lost our moral authority just because Trump has none.

That's the pot calling the kettle black 😤🤬

He's kidding right? You can't condemn another country for doing the exact same thing that our government is doing!

They financed a group that took over a building in columbia university. should that have consequences? Doesnt the president have the ability to make that decision?

These fascist christian taliban will never admit what they are doing is one & the same.

Reminds me of the fascist Christian Nazis in Germany 1930's.

Lil Marco, you're suck a damned hypocrite and liar! Let the videos of the actions of this current regime run on a 24/7 a day basis. Let's start with Bull Connor & his police dogs and fire hoses! RECENT events alone will show how spineless Marco, and his leader are.

Marco's not too smart, is he?

I'll say

Is he serious?? GTFOH

Honestly don’t know how Rubio keeps a straight face when doing this.

He has always been a piece of shit. It was just forgotten because Trump came along.

Whaatt.....????

No self-awareness with little Marco

I see it differently, freedom of speech stops when people organize and directed people breaking into a building where it was completely trashed. Also directing people to harass Jewish students and preventing them from walking anywhere they wanted to. I don't call any of that "free speech".

They "needed" like 12 people to pull that terrified student off the street. No room to talk at all.

Do as we say, not as we do?

It’s like they have genuinely lost not just their moral compass but any semblance of self awareness! He has literally no room to speak & no high ground from which to judge

That’s hilarious!

The First Amendment is getting whittled down every day. Centralised control by an oppressive government is attempting to micromanage universities, news media, and us. How far will it go?

As his administration tries to take it away from their own country.

Rubio supports the racist convicted felon and adjudicated rapist. He need not pretend otherwise. bsky.app/profile/aclu...

That’s funny cause when u say something in America about god king trump, ur the bad guy.

Yeah considering you’re prepared to lock up students protesting genocide. America sit the fuck down

I bet that Rubio the tRump shill is only condemning the arrests because they would have preferred execution

And why exactly did Rubio's parents flee for refuge in the land of the free?

Socialism free his parents too.

Seriously.

"Us-Based persons" is a pretty bold dog whistle.

Is this the same Marco Rubio who stripped visas from 300 protesting students and had them arrested and deported? Why, yes, it IS the very same hypocrite! www.bbc.com/news/article...

Marco should focus on Americans arrested or expelled for protesting.

That's the problem, he did focus on them and then proceeded to invalidate their visas for protesting. And to mention that he was proud of it.

*Not to mention

Hong Kong used to be such a wonderful free place. Actually so did the USA.

I'm so glad I got to experience Hong Kong before it went to the dark side. And much of 🇺🇸.

Imagine back in the day they said to China you can have hong Kong back in 99 years. Went by too fast.

The USA has given up all right to claim any moral high ground wrt First Amendment freedoms.

... It's a Christian Nationalist thing to be a hypocrite ...

Until you reply in kind you’ll continue to ba a victim. Either utilise the 2nd amendment on them or stop your fuckkng whining you bunch or weak pathetic excuses for people. As a planet we need to exterminate every single one of you. Die slowly motherfucker.

Pot meet kettle

They're mad that China is making them look bad cos China is using warrants.

Can he spell hypocrisy?

That hypocrisy is astounding, but this admin is always going to side with China because of trump’s ties and biz interests. As well as this takes away the complication of what to do when China inevitably attacks Taiwan. We were previously obligated to come to their defense

We have a pedo rapist running our country and an administration that is cruel and useless to the people it’s supposed to serve. We need to sit down and shut up, until we fix ourselves. Just my opinion.

Correct

Rubio is such a hypocritical ass hole! Is he really unaware of his hypocrisy? Some weenies will do and say anything to become POTUS.

We have become a third world dictatorship where congress and the judicial has no input to protecting the country. Idiot republicans supported a career criminal.

Marco Rubio supports the very thing that his parents came here to avoid.

This looks like Little Marco's contribution to the gang's chaotic distractions to divert attention from tRump covering up for someone in the Epstein files. Did any reporter ask him about the outrageous accusations tRump made about President Obama?

It's an oxymoron to have Little Marco leading the Senate Intelligence Committee...🤔🥴

Focus

😁great memes

My favorite: The Epstein Files Monster created by Trump & MAGA.🤣😂😁

Mine too

👍The snowball effect is in motion. The Epstein files are getting larger and LARGER the more tRump and "them" keep lying and trying to cover up.

A business juggernaut: Ladies and Gentlemen, The Rolling Stones!

This artist is good 👍

Agree

I just saw a video of tRump saying that Russia interfered in the 2016 election. Along with rubio and gabbard.

Do you remember this?

I sure do.

That's how he always runs-off at the mouth.🤮 He still said it. MAGA.

Yep. I’ve been sick of him for 10 years. Can’t wait for his last breath.

Rubio, seriously? Come on, man. Oh, wait. I get it. Another one of those “i was just joking” moments, right?

China is still worse, though. The CCP is even acting much worse on the Mainland than in HK

America is a living breathing hypocrisy and has been for a long time. It's now on an unparalleled level.

They don’t wear masks in Hong Kong

BURN ICE!!!

We’ve lost all moral authority & credibility; but, let’s pretend we haven’t, & criticize the rest of the world as if we hadn’t pissed whatever national morality we had remaining down Uncle Sam’s legacy…..

In a nutshell I understand well a third part as the intent I have found, it says:"That government was being actively seeking the legitimacy is not, to an honest

What? This administration is kidnapping people. Get fucked Marco Rubio. Fn Nazi bitch.

The appalling hypocrisy!

Trump doesn't like being shown up.

I mean ... Marco is a paper tiger.

Rubio is almost worse than the other cabinet members because he still pretends like he’s not evil

That's Rubio...cosplaying.

Looks just like American streets.

I recognize that picture and this was not in China.

It's the grad student being arrested in the United States ( Colombia University, I think). It's making a point of little marco's hypocrisy.

I'd like to read that condemnation because I'm not sure how to craft something like that while at the same time talking about how Obama needs to be arrested.

JFC WHEN PEOPLE WHEN?????? I CANT drive and I’m in a wheelchair it’s time to do something

At least they had arrest warrants, unlike the faceless goons in America.

Marco Rubio has sold his soul. He needs to shut the F up!

The hypocrisy is mindblowing. The USA has lost all credibility on moral issues and regarding human rights.

...authority. No need to get more specific. 😥😡

💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

Oh the irony!

Irony is dead.

Liddle Marco sold his soul to Trump years ago - that's how he's able to be a hypocrite like this now.

we don’t even know how many people have been nabbed off the street, from school, work, court appointments, asylum hearings, traffic stops, etc! most by masked, unidentifiable goon squads! fukk u rubio! you’re worse than any of them because you are complicit in your own people being tortured

The gestapo at work.

Saying we condemn arrests of people disagreeing with the government is the epitome of hypocrisy. The Trump administration continues to attack free press and political leaders who disagree with him. It is only a matter of time before Trump has dissenters arrested. It's the authoritarian way.

This needs to be said and understood by the average American, especially the ones not paying attention.

How dare Rubio say anything about any other country, especially if they have nuclear capability?

Marco

Windmill!

Polo

Mario be like a fart in the wind

LOL 😂 kettle meet a very black pot

What hypocrisy! The republikkkan fascist party is doing the same thing

Notice something in this story? Hong Kong is said to have used “arrest warrants”. USA doesn’t even pretend to do that.

💯

George, you are amazing. Thanks for all your posts.

Shut up little marco

Sadly true George

Isn't that ICE?

Wow, Rubio, your hypocrisy is staggering.

😞

“Do as I say not as I do” is the new US motto

Rubio needs a good ass kicking.

I'll do it ✋️We're about the same size. POTUS & his fake Dept of Ed ex WWE could sell tix but we get 80%

Cool.

Make it a pay per view. I'll pay to see that.

Me too. A lot.

youtu.be/Pt4mwy9OBNA?...

Whatever happened to Musk vs Zuck ? No matter who got hurt, we would all win. If we call them chickenshits enough, do you think we could get it going again ?

So we should just shut up and let it happen?

Can we lead by example?

It's better than just giving up

I agree. It just seem so disingenuous coming from Rubio and from the U.S. right now. I am just frustrated because 8 months ago, our Secretary of State input on the matter would have been received with more respect.

I understand, thank you 🙏

*Please* tell me he's being sarcastic. Is he that obtuse?
