Marco Rubio

Welcome back to Italy, @SecRubio!

Met with @Pontifex to underscore our shared commitment to promoting peace and human dignity.

Good to see Cardinal Parolin today at the Vatican. The United States and Holy See partnership in advancing religious freedom is strong.

Truly honored to have joined Secretary of State @marcorubio for his meetings at the Vatican today, including with @Pontifex

The honor was ours. You are always welcome in our country 🇸🇻🇺🇸

Under President Trump’s leadership investment is flowing back into the United States at record levels! Indian companies plan to invest over $20.5 billion in various sectors including tech, manufacturing, and pharmaceuticals. This includes the 12 Indian companies who announced $1.1 billion in investments just today! These partnerships are creating REAL American jobs and building STRONGER supply chains. Proof that when the world's largest democracies do business together, everyone wins. #SelectUSA 🇺🇸🇮🇳

Great state visit yesterday from His Majesty King Charles III

Secretary Rubio Terminates Green Cards of Foreign Nationals Tied to Infamous Iranian Regime Propagandist  state.gov/releases/offic…

Masoumeh Ebtekar - also known as "Screaming Mary" - was the spokeswoman for the Islamic terrorists who stormed the U.S. Embassy in Tehran in 1979 and held 52 Americans hostage for 444 days - subjecting them to beatings, starvation, and mock executions. In 2014, the Obama Administration granted visas to her son and his family to enter the United States. In June 2016, the Obama Administration gave them lawful permanent resident status via the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program. This week, I terminated their lawful permanent resident status and today, Seyed Eissa Hashemi, Maryam Tahmasebi, and their son are now in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement pending their removal from our country. Her family should never have been allowed to benefit from the extraordinary privilege of living in our country. America can never become home for anti-American terrorists or their families - and under the Trump Administration, it never will.

He is Risen.

🚨“WE GOT HIM! My fellow Americans, over the past several hours, the United States Military pulled off one of the most daring Search and Rescue Operations in U.S. History, for one of our incredible Crew Office Members, who also happens to be a highly respected Colonel, and who I am thrilled to let you know is SAFE and SOUND!” - President Donald J. Trump 🇺🇸

Until recently, Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter were green card holders living lavishly in the United States. Afshar is the niece of deceased Iranian Major General Qasem Soleimani. She is also an outspoken supporter of the Iranian regime who celebrated attacks on Americans and referred to our country as the "Great Satan." This week, I terminated both Afshar and her daughter's legal status and they are now in ICE custody, pending removal from the United States. The Trump Administration will not allow our country to become a home for foreign nationals who support anti-American terrorist regimes.

SECRETARY RUBIO: President Trump has been talking about the threat of Iran before he was even a political candidate. As President, he was not going to allow Iran to pose a threat to Americans, so we had to act with clear purpose.

My statement re Prohibiting the Latin Patriarch of entering Church of Holy Sepulcher on Palm Sunday: While all Holy sites in the Old City are closed due to safety concerns for mass gatherings including the Western Wall, Church of the Holy Sepulcher and Al Aqsa Mosque, the action today by the Israel Nat'l Police to deny Latin Patriarch Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa and 3 other priests from entering the Church to offer a blessing on Palm Sunday is an unfortunate overreach already having major repercussions around the world.  Home Front Command Guidelines restrict any gatherings to 50 people or less.  The 4 representatives of the Catholic Church were well below that restriction.  Statements from the Gov't of Israel indicate the action to prohibit Cardinal Pizzaballa entry to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher were for safety reasons, but churches, synagogues, and mosques throughout Jerusalem have met with the restrictions of 50 or less.  For the Patriarch to be barred from entry to the Church on Palm Sunday for a private ceremony is difficult to understand or justify. Israel has indicated it will work with the Patriarch to accommodate a safe means of carrying out Holy Week activities.

SECRETARY RUBIO on our objectives in IRAN: - Destroy their factories that make missiles and rockets and drones. - Destroy their navy. - Destroy their air force.

.@SecRubio on the Iranian regime: "These people will kill as many Americans as they have a chance to do, and if they have a nuclear weapon... they could kill millions of Americans... and that is a risk that was NOT going to continue to exist as long as we had this president."

SECRETARY RUBIO: For 47 years, Iran has been killing and attacking Americans across this planet. Other presidents had an opportunity to do something and they refused to act. This President will not leave a danger like this in place, but will address it. That’s what he’s doing.
