One of the first Cabinet nominations announced by President-elect Donald Trump was that of former 2016 primary rival turned ally Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) to be the next secretary of State, which if confirmed would open up a vacancy in the U.S. Senate.
Under Florida law, Gov. Ron DeSantis has the authority to appoint a replacement to fill that vacancy until a special election in 2026, but the popular GOP governor is said to be “not in a hurry” to make that decision, according to the New York Post.
One reason DeSantis is taking his time to name Rubio’s replacement is that he understands the importance of thoroughly vetting the eventual appointee, but it could also be because he is grappling with the pros and cons of naming a prominent Trump ally, such as his daughter-in-law Lara Trump, or a state-level official who has proven their loyalty and worth to the governor over the past few years.
DeSantis is “not in a hurry to make an important decision”
Sen. Rubio as secretary of State was one of President-elect Trump’s first nominations and arguably the least controversial, and it is widely anticipated that he will breeze through the Senate confirmation hearings with ample support from his colleagues on both sides of the aisle, likely at some point in January.
That gives Gov. DeSantis plenty of time to choose a replacement to fill Rubio’s vacant seat for the next two years, but according to NBC News, there should be few expectations that the Florida governor will publicly announce his selection before the end of the year. […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
