99-0 confirmed swamp donkey.
Literally a neocon.
Maybe he’s part of a phase:
Send in a swamp creature and monitor the conversations and transactions and otherwise figure out the game.
Send in the real SoS, a real hatchet.
Or maybe we’ve turned Rubio somehow. Counter-blackmail? Maybe he was the least scummy. Maybe he never got into the deeper circles and was clean enough.
Edit:
It’s early in the game. Remember chess. Throw a pawn out there and sacrifice it. Get him confirmed. Then fire him or make him resign. Then put in the hatchet as “acting SoS” (doesn’t require senate confirmation) to tear some shit up. Then confirm the true SoS or maybe replace with another acting SoS.
ChatGPT:
Yes, a Secretary of State (SoS) can be replaced with an Acting Secretary of State in certain circumstances, such as resignation, removal, incapacity, or other situations where the position becomes vacant. The process for replacing the SoS with an acting official is governed by law and the presidential line of authority.
How It Works:
1.Vacancy in the Secretary of State Position: If the Secretary of State leaves office or is otherwise unable to fulfill their duties, the president can designate an acting official to temporarily take over.
2.Federal Vacancies Reform Act (FVRA): Under the Federal Vacancies Reform Act of 1998, the president may appoint an acting secretary from:
•Senior officials in the Department of State (e.g., Deputy Secretary of State).
•A person confirmed by the Senate for another federal position.
3.Internal Line of Succession:
The State Department’s internal succession plan usually specifies who will step in as acting Secretary of State. Typically, the Deputy Secretary of State or the Under Secretary for Political Affairs is next in line.
4.Temporary Role:
The Acting Secretary serves in a temporary capacity until a permanent Secretary of State is confirmed by the Senate.
Key Limitations:
•An acting official does not have the same political authority or permanence as a Senate-confirmed Secretary of State.
•The appointment of an acting official is typically time-limited by statute, usually to 210 days under the FVRA, unless a new nomination is pending.
...compelling addendum, nicely stated and framed...
+1 Great, if it has not been done yet, I hope he can remove the requirement for legal immigrants to take the fake vaxx shots.
...valid observation...
His first is the worst.
He's President Trump's first. If the POTUS believes he is qualified for the job, then it is not our place to judge.
It’s 💯% our place to judge and provide our feedback. This is America.
Curious how you think we have a better view of the woods here than trump?
You are hopefully correct.
"Time, the avenger."
Rino! Let’s see what happens.
Rubio will show up to work wearing John Bolton’s mustache, that’s what’s going to happen.
I can't do it, but someone should make a meme with this!
If President Trump chose him, then we know he's solid.
I think sometimes Trump gets advice from staff too. Don’t trust Rubio. He was for all the Ukraine funding.
"Rubio voted against a foreign aid package in 2024 that included Ukraine funding while retaining his hawkish stance on China and Latin America. "
Quote from the article.
Stop expecting people to read and research, knee jerk reactions are the theme of the day.
Let’s see what he does now. Initially he supported all the Ukraine funding.
He is a RINO though
Dude needs to be replaced in about a week by an acting SOS. After he quits of course, if he hasn’t
Oh. Yay, I guess...
...Little Marco will do as he is told...
If not, he'll have to go stand in the corner and think about what he's done!
