Democrats Expected to Grill Marco Rubio

“Secretary of State Marco Rubio heads to Capitol Hill today for the first time since his confirmation, and Democrats have a thing or two on their minds,” the Washington Post reports.

“Expect Democrats to grill Rubio on his role dismantling USAID and falling in line with the isolationist foreign policy that has taken over the State Department under the Trump administration.”

“For many Democrats, it will be a chance to express a sense of betrayal. Democratic senators heartily endorsed Rubio to be the nation’s top diplomat when Trump nominated him last year, believing him to be a steady hand in an otherwise precedent-defying administration. Instead, Rubio fell in line with the president.”
