Republican Florida Senator Marco Rubio didn't hold back during an interview with "Fox News Sunday" and host Shannon Bream this week, on how feckless President Joe Biden has been over the U.S. showing steadfast support for our ally, Israel, against terrorists. But he didn't stop there, exposing in a fiery monologue just how badly the administration has dropped the ball on radical elements within the country whipping up antisemitism and violent protests on college campuses.

Rubio said it goes back months, and that Biden should have taken his advice "back in October" immediately after Hamas' terrorist attack on Israel, on getting ahead of those trying to foment these protests--and kicking them out of the U.S:

Rubio said:

Joe Biden, very early on,should have said, as I asked him to do back in October: If you're in the streets of the United States, you're here as a visitor on a visa, okay. You're not an American, you're here on a visa, and you're here to teach or you're here to go to school--and you're out there chanting on behalf of Hamas and Hezbollah and these terrorist groups who also, by the way, hate America. 

We should revoke your visa. If you are here in this country as a visitor on a visa, and you are defacing statues of George Washington, ripping down American flags, putting up Palestinian flags, you should have your visa revoked and eliminated.

He continued, laying out one of the shameful reasons Biden can't or won't stand with Israel: 

[Biden] should have been very clear about who's side we're on from the very beginning. But look, there's a bunch of Democratic donors, major Democratic donors, who are behind the groups who are funding all of this.

I saw the other day, I think it was in UCLA, there's thousands of dollars of plywood, that they were using as barricades against the police. They're committing acts of violence, not just acts of antisemitism--acts of violence, vandalism, threatening people....because of these zombies, these antisemitic, left-wing nutcases, that the president should have been very firm about.

That's why everything in America is in chaos, from our border to our campuses--total chaos.

The senator also took the Biden administration to task for playing "both sides," when our nation should call out Hamas clearly and strongly as terrorists, not victims--something Biden has failed to do repeatedly: (emphasis added)

[I would say to] this administration: This is Israel's war. We should basically say, we are on the side on the people who were the victims on Oct. 7th, of a bunch of savages and lunatics who came across that border, and massacred and killed and kidnapped and raped--and took hostages back with them. 

These people need to be defeated. How is Israel supposed to coexist--to live side by side--alongside, next to, these people? And when they talk about displaced people, there are 80,000 Israelis right now that [sic] are displaced from the north....because Hezbollah is attacking them in northern Israel.

So, this is a time when we need to have, not a weak and feeble president, but someone who makes it very clear that we are on Israel's side--they are the good guys in this fight--and Hamas are the evil ones. And these terrible civilian casualties are because Hamas is using them as human shields.
