USAID Head, Alleged Jan 6th Rioter, Appointed by Rubio
USAID’s future is uncertain, with conflicting reports suggesting either closure or absorption into the State Department. Secretary Rubio appointed Pete Marocco, a former Trump appointee with a controversial past, to oversee the transition. Marocco faces accusations of participating in the January 6th Capitol riot and a history of disruptive behavior within various government agencies, leading to concerns about his suitability for the role. His appointment, along with other questionable Trump loyalists within the State Department, raises significant concerns among USAID staff.
