Rick Scott, U.S. Senator representing Florida, posted a series of statements on February 21, 2026, addressing business stories in his state, U.S. foreign policy toward Venezuela and Cuba, and media coverage of China.

In a morning post at 13:15 UTC, Scott promoted an upcoming episode of his ongoing video series highlighting local entrepreneurs: “New episode of my American Dream at Work Series COMING SOON! It’s an inspiring story of how one Naples businessman went from working at the company to owning it. Now, he’s even using his experience to help his employees achieve their American Dreams, too! https://t.co/Jsy5Bhryb8”

Later that day at 14:35 UTC, Scott commented on international relations in Latin America: “For too long, the Communist Cuban regime has helped Maduro and his thugs remain in power in Venezuela. Thanks to @POTUS and @SecRubio’s leadership, Venezuela is one step closer to being free! https://t.co/gKBKBlLZVP”

At 17:38 UTC on the same day, Scott criticized sports network ESPN regarding its coverage of China: “This is wildly shameless. Of course, @ESPN has no mention of Communist China’s evil reputation.
