Still SeatedMarco Rubio is the Secretary of State and a longtime Republican politician who previously represented Florida in the U.S. Senate and ran for president in 2016. He now leads the U.S. Department of State and serves as one of the administration’s top foreign policy officials. Once upon a time Rubio was sold as the polished future of the party, and now he’s back in government helping steer Trump-era foreign policy through the usual mix of hardline messaging, geopolitical brinkmanship, and aggressive partisan loyalty. On Yeeted or Seated, Rubio is what happens when establishment credentials and movement politics finally stop pretending they’re in tension.
