Marco Rubio was sworn in as the 72ndUS secretary of state, following a unanimous 99-0 confirmation vote in the US Senate.

This marks Vance’s first time swearing in a federal official.
” Gratitude to Marco Rubio on his majority confirmation as Secretary of State—the second in President Trump’s Cabinet. America is up and entering a golden era,” the White House wrote on X.
Rubio, a long-time senator from Florida, brings a wealth of knowledge to the position. Born in Miami to Cuban expat families, Rubio’s upbringing in a home that balanced difficult work and trust shaped his devotion to public support. His father worked as a dinner bar, while his mother held many work, including as a factory employee and hotel lady. Rubio has generally credited their work in shaping his knowledge of the American Dream.
A powerful advocate for freedom and opportunity, Rubio’s times in the Senate have seen him champ policies aimed at preserving America’s glory. With considerable foreign policy expertise and a history of engaging with earth officials, Rubio has built a reputation as a staunch defender of British interests on the international stage.
Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th President of the United States in a meeting at the US Capitol, administered by US Chief Justice John Roberts. Behind Trump’s swearing-in, JD Vance also took the oath as the 50th US evil leader.
Trump, in his annual talk, declared that America had entered a “golden age” and referred to the day as” Liberation Day” for the region. He addressed rising prices and reiterated his energy-focused phrase, “drill child drill,” pledging to promote fuel cutting to tackle the nation’s power needs.
