The Morning Rant: Marco Rubio Is A Star, And He Isn't The Only One In The Cabinet!

Our current Secretary of State may be the most consequential one in the last 50 years. Marco Rubio is teaching a master class in how to be a statesman, a diplomat, and a powerful and unapologetic defender of the president's policies.

And as JD Vance dabbles in partisan politics, and perhaps even flirts with the lunatic faux-right, Marco Rubio is cementing his position as an indispensable part of President Trump's administration, and perhaps a rising star for the 2028 Republican Presidential nomination.

Here is Marco Rubio's press conference on March 2nd, 2026, which has been butchered by the mainstream media to make the administration sound as if it is flailing. But a full listen will reveal a perfectly prepared presentation of the rationale behind our preemptive strikes against the Iranian theocratic maniacs.

Secretary Rubio has full command of the facts, and presents exactly the correct tone of deference to the President without sounding like an apparatchik. There is no parallel foreign policy being conducted on the sly...he is a proud American, a proud member of the Trump administration, and gives the impression that he is 100% on board with the President's goals.

It is a testament to President Trump's resolve to be a different president than in his first term; he has chosen a far more impressive cabinet, with a few bona fide stars. Rubio, Scott Bessent at Treasury, Doug Burgum at Interior, Pete Hegseth at War, Lee Zeldin at EPA, RFK Jr. at HHS, and several others who are comporting themselves well.

Sure, we can bitch and moan about a few others, in particular Bondi at Justice, but President Trump has constructed a superb cabinet without any of the political turmoil of his last administration and, more importantly, without the disloyalty that was rife among the GOPe-chosen officials.

I look forward to these people continuing their work for years, if not in the next Republican administration, then in Congress or their state houses or governor's mansions!
