In a shocking moment that has left the world stunned, US President Donald Trump read out a secret note from Secretary of State Marco Rubio during a live press conference at the White House. The unexpected incident occurred when Trump was addressing a gathering of high-ranking officials from major oil and gas companies, discussing potential investments in Venezuela’s energy sector and recent US actions.
As Trump was speaking, Rubio quietly handed him a handwritten note, which Trump then read aloud in front of the cameras. The note, which Trump displayed for all to see, read: “Chevron, go back, they want to talk to you.”
Following the unexpected revelation, Trump turned to Rubio and said, “I’m going back to Chevron, thank you, Marco, and I’m putting my hand on your shoulder.” This moment of levity was met with a mixture of amusement and bewilderment from the audience.
The incident quickly went viral on social media, with many users expressing surprise and amusement at the sudden turn of events. Others commented on Rubio’s apparent discomfort and Trump’s unscripted behavior.
