The leaked conversation reveals Cabinet members discussing an upcoming cricket match between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals, sharing personal preferences and drawing parallels with their political work. Amidst the discussion, there were calls for focus on their political strategies and a mention of enjoying spicy samosas during the match.
Michael Waltz (11:44 am ET): Big day today. The clash is on. PBKS vs DC. The Punjab Kings need this win to secure a top-two finish. Who are we backing?
JD Vance (11:52 am ET): I have always had a soft spot for Punjab. They play with a lot of heart and spirit. Just what our administration stands for. 💪🇺🇸
Pete Hegseth (12:13 pm ET): The Delhi Capitals are strong, well-organized with a game plan. We can learn a few things. Particularly how we deal with the European moochers and liberal media.
Marco Rubio (12:40 pm ET): I can’t believe we are discussing cricket when we should be focusing on our strategies. But I’ve to admit, I enjoy watching Rahul’s clean batting. He seems such a sane guy amidst the chaos on a cricket field.
Tulsi Gabbard (12:51 pm ET): Wait, have you tried those spicy samosas while watching the match? I learnt how to make them. A Russian friend taught me.
Scott Bessent (13:10 pm ET): We seriously need to focus. I can’t believe we’re discussing cricket and samosas.
John Ratcliffe (13:20 pm ET): Guys, I need to bring this chat back to reality. Can we swing back to the matter of policy?
Susie Wiles (13:45 pm ET): John, lighten up, a bit of banter doesn’t hurt, even if it involves cricket. 😂
Steve Witkoff (14:00 pm ET): I agree, Susie. And for the record, I’m backing Punjab too.
Stephen Miller (14:15 pm ET): This is all very amusing, but remember, we have work that needs attention.
Joe Kent (14:20 pm ET): True, Stephen. But sometimes, it’s just good to let off some steam.
Vance (14.55 pm ET): And it’s over, guys. Punjab won. Victory is sweet, isn’t it? Let’s get back to work, let’s make our strategies victorious as well.
Hegseth (15.00 pm ET): I knew Punjab had it in them! On to our own battleground now! 💪🇺🇸🔥
