Bari Weiss' new MAGAt CBS Evening News anchor delivers a slobbering fanboy appreciation of "Ultimate Florida Man" Rubio [View all]

Tony Dokoupil followed up his rough opening night in the CBS Evening News anchor’s chair by gushing over Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

Dokoupil concluded Tuesday night with a segment about the “many lives and many jobs” of Rubio, who is not only Secretary of State, but interim National Security Adviser, acting National Archivist, and head of the U.S. Agency for International Development.

“Whatever you think of his politics, you’ve got to admit: it’s an impressive resume,” Dokoupil said.

“And now, AI memes have added to that portfolio, casting Secretary Rubio as the new governor of Minnesota, the new shah of Iran, the prime minister of Greenland, the new manager of Manchester United, the new head of Hilton hotels, and—highest of high honors of all—the new Michelin Man."
