  1. President-elect Donald Trump is expected to nominate Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) as Secretary of State, according to sources familiar with his decision-making. Rubio, a foreign policy hawk and early critic of China and Iran, has more recently aligned with Trump on issues like Russia’s war in Ukraine. Despite early political tensions, including Trump’s “Little Marco” taunts during the 2016 Republican primaries, Rubio became a loyal supporter and informal adviser after Trump’s election. Other key national security appointments include Michael Waltz as national security adviser and Elise Stefanik as U.N. ambassador.

  3. A lulzy option rather than a catastrophic option

  4. China stock indexes about to take a dive and Chairman Xi fuming right now.

  5. Giving up his Senate seat for a dude who named him little marco, and goes often through cabinet members is a gamble.

  9. Rubio??? Damn, I’m gonna run for senate now because if that knob can do it then so can I

  12. Let’s see how, if at all, this affects US relations with Cuba.

  13. don’t they have to at least be competent? this won’t last long..

  14. Rubio as secretary of state and Waltz as national security show it isn’t gonna be an easy time for China.

  17. I guess he’s not the worst option. Kind of a relief that he isn’t picking an unqualified psychopath
