The ruling and his threat to “haul in” officials have gone viral on social media, prompting online calls for his impeachment and accusations that he would expose Trump administration officials. Coverage so far is concentrated on social posts and legal blogs; major outlets have limited reporting. Supporters hail his enforcement of court orders, while critics call for discipline.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio criticized the United Nations, saying, “I don’t care what the U.N. says,” in remarks disputing U.N. findings on Venezuela. A viral social-media post attributed additional language to Rubio calling the U.N. “a corrupted disaster” that places “3rd world dictators” on human-rights councils and “promotes the replacement of white people,” and attached a poll asking readers to respond “A. Huge Yes” or “B. No.” Major outlets confirm Rubio is Secretary of State and have reported his dispute with U.N. drug reports, while the inflammatory extended claim primarily appears on social platforms and remains currently unverified.
