Wow this is interesting if true,

What do you guys think? If so, who would become the Secretary of State?

Oh, nm, he is just going to be acting until there is a replacement. He is remaining SOS



WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump said Thursday that he’s naming Secretary of State Marco Rubio as acting national security adviser to replace Mike Waltz, whom he is nominating for United Nations ambassador.
Trump announced the moves shortly after news broke that Waltz and his deputy Alex Wong were departing the administration just weeks after it was revealed that Waltz added a journalist to a Signal chat being used to discuss military plans.

Trump said Rubio will continue to serve as secretary of state.
“I am pleased to announce that I will be nominating Mike Waltz to be the next United States Ambassador to the United Nations. From his time in uniform on the battlefield, in Congress and, as my National Security Advisor, Mike Waltz has worked hard to put our Nation’s Interests first,” Trump wrote on social media.

“In the interim, Secretary of State Marco Rubio will serve as National Security Advisor, while continuing his strong leadership at the State Department. Together, we will continue to fight tirelessly to Make America, and the World, SAFE AGAIN.”
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. AP’s earlier story follows below.
WASHINGTON (AP) — White House national security adviser Mike Waltz is leaving the administration just weeks after it was revealed he added a journalist to a Signal chat being used to discuss military plans, according to two people familiar with the matter Thursday, marking the first major staff shake-up of President Donald Trump’s second term.
 
1. Mike Waltz is not leaving the administration.
2. It is not a "major staff shakeup", I'm not even sure it can be called a demotion. The UN ambassador has much more visibility.

My understanding is Rubio will retain his position as Secretary of State while simultaneously performing his new role.

If true, it's not exactly a stretch.

Same wheelhouse, and same proximity to the President.

Rearranging the furniture on the Titanic would not have saved the sinking liner, nor will it Trump's foundering manure barge of state.

No matter what you post about Trump, he and his administration are still TWICE as popular as the democrats.
You're trying to sell shit to voters, and they are ignoring you.

Please attempt t justify your remarks by citing, specifically, what I have said about Democrats.

If you cannot, I'm not surprised.

Joe's whole career was financed from Oligarchs. Delaware has a lot of them. A somewhat conservative state with progressive politicians. Talk about power.

Desperate diversions to propaganda that targets past presidents against whom actual charges could never be concocted is futile.

Trumpery enfeebles America now.

You NEVER say anything about democrats, that is my point.
Tell us a few democrat policies that will win you votes in 2026 and 2028.

Rubio remains the Sec. of State. He's wearing a lot of hats these days. Now he's the S of S, the NSA, the acting administrator for the diminished USAID, as well as acting archivist of the National Archives and Records Administration.

When absolute, unquestioned fidelity to the regime's ever shifting, harmful policies is a prerequisite to serve under the guy who raped E. Jean Carroll there aren't a lot of people to choose from.

Your desperate (albeit understandable) attempts to divert attention from Trumpery fails.

This thread is not about political parties or future elections.

Trump is twice as popular as democrats.
Trump is doing what we elected him to do.
Trump's policies are popular, criticizing them just shows how confused and lost democrats are.
Keep whining about Trump and we win again in 2026 and 2028.
 
Trump is doing what we elected him to do.
You elected him to break the law, ignore an order from the SC, alienate allies with tariffs, tariffs that have caused global economic chaos with absolutely no benefit to the US, fire essential government workers only to hire them back, eliminate oversight by firing IG's, threaten the press and law firms who represent clients Don doesn't like, call Zelensky a dictator but not Putin, appoint hacks in his cabinet, pardon violent criminals because they acted on his behalf, fire FBI personnel because they investigated him, appoint this guy....... https://www.politico.com/live-updat...s/ed-martin-senate-confirmation-woes-00322346


Did you know that makes you a traitor to America?

Has anyone else noticed Rubio and Vance have started dressing just like Il Duce?

They even do that thing Trump does, sitting with their elbows on their knees and their fingers arched.

I've seen DOGE boi doing the same thing.

Tell me this isn't a cult.

what order?
alienate allies with tariffs, tariffs that have caused global economic chaos with absolutely no benefit to the US,
Fair tariffs are a benefit to the US, wanting unfair tariffs makes you the traitor.
fire essential government workers only to hire them back, eliminate oversight by firing IG's,
Most fired government workers are not essential, especially the IGs, they allowed $billions of waste, fraud, and theft.
threaten the press and law firms who represent clients Don doesn't like,
That is what the courts are for...ask George and ABC.
call Zelensky a dictator but not Putin,
meh, Putin will be harder to get to sign a peace deal. Z needs to let scheduled elections happen.
appoint hacks in his cabinet,
LIAR. Trump's cabinet is 1000x better than the freak show cabinet Biden had.
pardon violent criminals because they acted on his behalf,
Don't talk pardons after Biden's "autopen" pardoned his entire family of crooks, Fau-Chi, Hunter's Crime Family and many more. We know how unfairly the J6 protesters were treated, especially by the DOJ.

Federal judge finds DC jail warden in contempt, demands DOJ civil rights probe of Jan. 6 detainees​

....Did you know that makes you a traitor to America?
It makes you democrats traitors to America, especially for open borders letting in 12,000,000 illegals, including 166,000 Chinese, 125,000 Russians, 500,000 convicted criminals, and hundreds of terrorists including ISIS.
