During a White House meeting with oil and gas executives, President Donald Trump read aloud a private handwritten note from Secretary of State Marco Rubio. The note instructed Trump to "go back to Chevron." Vice President JD Vance appeared amused, while Rubio seemed uncomfortable. Trump thanked Rubio for the reminder. This incident echoes a similar event in October 2025 when Rubio passed Trump a note suggesting a social media post about a potential Middle East ceasefire deal.
