Big Marco: Rubio swiftly takes rare dual power role
- On Thursday, Trump appointed Rubio as interim national security advisor while he served as secretary of state, combining two powerful roles in Washington.
- Trump removed Mike Waltz from the national security advisor position 101 days into his second term amid criticism over leaked war plans and pledged to nominate him UN ambassador.
- The son of Cuban immigrants and the first Latino to serve as secretary of state has won considerable backing from much of Trump's supporters by focusing on deportation policies and negotiating migration agreements with El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele.
- At a 100th day cabinet meeting, Rubio expressed no regrets about pursuing additional overseas prison arrangements and declared that whenever he identifies problematic individuals, he promptly revokes their visas.
- Rubio's dual role marks the first such consolidation since Henry Kissinger ran both State and National Security for two years under Nixon, though experts doubt Rubio will match Kissinger’s influence.
