Secretary of state, acting administrator for USAID, acting lead archivist, acting national security adviser. Marco Rubio, the politician Trump once dubbed “little Marco,” has become the president’s go-to guy for big roles in the administration. But Democrats are casting doubt on whether it is possible for Rubio — or anyone — to balance all of those jobs.
Host Margaret Brennan asked Sen. Tammy Duckworth whether she had “confidence that [Rubio] can juggle all four of the jobs that he now has for an indefinite period of time.”
“No. There’s no way he can do that and do it well, especially since there’s such incompetence over at DOD with Pete Hegseth being secretary of defense, and just the hollowing out of the top leadership,” said Duckworth, who represents Illinois and sits on the Senate Armed Services Committee, during a Sunday interview on CBS’s Face the Nation. “There’s no way he can carry all that entire load on his own.”
Sounds like you dumb fucks shouldn’t have confirmed him then, huh?
Isn’t it obvious? He’s not taking on any additional load at all.
The administration may not be able to fully cancel executive agencies that were established by Congress, but they can assign their duties to someone who would have no problem ignoring them. So instead of being killed outright, they die a slow death due to benign neglect.
There’s a lot of ways to ruin an organization besides disbanding it.

L’eau du Trump
I hear farts are pleasant compared to his stench
I guess definitionally Trump sycophants are extremely tolerant of the smell of shit.
That and all the decisions and actions are being made by the Heritage Foundation.
didn’t they approve all of his role appointments?
Im pretty sure acting roles are unconfirmed
Dude couldn’t speak on camera and drink a glass of water at the same time but I’m sure he’s up to the task for this. 😆
🤡 country
Lil Marco is the new Jared
Denounced? Denounced!? Oh whatever shall we do?
Republicans probably. Wait until they read Chuck Schumer’s letter.
Strongly worded letter to follow.
I don’t see the issue. If you’re shitty at one job, why not be shitty at four jobs? It’s not like those roles were gonna get filled by anyone who’s any less shitty.
Sir Kier Starmer, Prime Minister of the UK, First Lord of the Treasury, MP for Holborn and St Pancras, Privy counsellor, Leader of the Labour Party would get a lot more sleep if he had only 4 roles. The Washington system seems to give politicians far too much free time. Maybe that’s why so many of them are swivel-eyed loons.
He’s the only one even slightly competent over there. He’ll probably burn out and leave a competence vacuum behind.
