The Senate approved the nomination of Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) to be secretary of state 99-0 Monday, hours after President Trump took the oath of office in the Capitol Rotunda.

Wow, 99-0!
Hegseth got approved in committee, now to the floor for the entire Senate. Possibly tomorrow.
The committee vote was every Dem against, every GOP for. Good thing we have a majority, even a slim one!
I hope he goes hard on Cuba. Talk about your rotten structure where you just need to kick the door in to make the whole thing collapse.
^^^^^ Yep, just for sending that fing asshole Mayorkas. I say we return him. from 20K feet, no parachute.
Rubio would be smart to work with and for Trump.
Anybody but Blinken !
