Trump keeps surprising us. This time, with his likely choice of Marco Rubio as Secretary of State– which is extremely good news for Israel and the Jews.
Israel's supporters have good reason to celebrate Trump's pick. Marco Rubio, expected to be named America's top diplomat, brings a long track record of backing Israel in Congress.
Since joining the Senate, Rubio hasn't just talked the talk - he's consistently pushed for stronger U.S.-Israel ties, tougher Iran sanctions, and taken firm stands against groups trying to boycott Israel. When Hamas attacked on October 7, he was among the first to stand up for Israel's right to defend itself.
The Republican Jewish Coalition quickly backed his nomination. "In these dangerous times, Rubio has always had Israel's back," they said, praising his record as a "defender of Israel."
What sets Rubio apart is his personal connection to fighting totalitarian threats. As the son of Cuban exiles, he brings a unique perspective to dealing with regimes like Iran and their proxy groups such as Hamas and Hezbollah.
If confirmed, he'll be making history as the first Latino Secretary of State, stepping into the role at a critical moment for Israel and the entire Middle East.
