Marco Rubio lost his cool with a reporter who asked how a ceasefire can still hold after the U.S. and Iran traded missile fire. The Secretary of State didn’t hold back, calling the question “stupid” before doubling down that America fired back because “we’re not a stupid country.” The exchange happened on May 8, 2026, during a press briefing where Rubio was grilled about the previous day’s skirmish.
