$SIREN Marco Rubio on the Senate floor with a message for Iran. He said the U.S. tells Iran that they should spend their "billions" of dollars on their people, not on weapons. It’s a standard diplomatic message, but there's just...so much to unpack there.

Many are pointing out the irony that the U.S. itself spends hundreds of billions on weapons every single year, often at the expense of social programs. Critics are asking if that logic applies to everyone, or only to the countries we disagree with.

It's a classic case of projection. Telling another country to stop spending on defense when we have the largest military budget in the world is a tough sell.

This highlights the inherent contradiction in our foreign policy rhetoric vs. our actual actions.
