Rubio, the most reasonable and accomplished of Trumps Cabinet picks, choosing a white nationalist for State and an insurrectionist to run an agency that Elon Musk is illegally dismantling. If this isn't a constitutional crisis, nothing is.

The guy overseeing USAID was identified two years ago as a Jan. 6 participant who entered the Capitol through a broken window.

I'd make the argument that Rubio is not "choosing" them but that Rubio is such weak and compromised human being that he accepts them as the price for being allowed to call himself Secretary of State for, well, he ain't lasting 4 years.....

There is no reasonable with any of them at this point. The terms and conditions of them signing on was to join this circus and perform all the tricks the ringmasters require.

And doing it while lambasting the government of Panama and then flying to El Salvador.

Once Rubio decided to abandon his integrity, he went all in.

If Rube was reasonable, he wouldn't have been given that job.

Rubio is serving his master (Trump), just as Trump is serving his master (Musk).

By “most reasonable” you mean most pliable, right?

lovewinzalways.bsky.social•21 days ago

Do we think Rubio had any idea who these people were/are, or hired them willingly? (The insurrectionist was seemingly only IDed recently and never tried.)

Oh ffs they’re ALL a constitutional crisis at this point! So now what?

jhonni.bsky.social•21 days ago

"This is a constitutional crisis" with nothing more - no recs on what to do or who to contact - is either fear mongering or profile building.

The hubris of these men participating in burning down the country, yet thinking they won't get choked by the smoke along with everyone else

At least he’ll be president.

Never be!

You should put your 'constitutional crisis' in quotes to indicate your use of the phrase is, inter alia, hyperbole, figure of speech, you don't mean what you say, etc.

Your Constitution is just fine.

The crisis you and yours is having is a failure of compass, mettle, courage, commitment, etc.

...he sold his soul too...

speckonblue.bsky.social•21 days ago

I don't think it's Rubio who personally chose him.

I remember Rubio leading the mob to install the insurrectionist Juan Guido as the “constitutionally valid”President of Venezuela. It was all a very dubious interpretation presented as fact with a few bible references thrown in and much rule of law talk. He sided with the idiots occupying Ottawa too.
