President-elect Donald Trump will nominate Florida Republican Senator Marco Rubio as secretary of state, according to multiple news outlets. Rubio is the son of Cuban immigrants who has fought to maintain the U.S. embargo on Cuba. He’s a staunch supporter of Israel’s assault on Gaza and has called for the “complete eradication of Hamas.” Rubio has also called for U.S. military action against Iran. If Rubio is confirmed as secretary of state, Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis will name a temporary replacement to fill his Senate seat until a 2026 special election.
