️🇺🇸🇬🇧 The Independent: US Secretary of State Marco Rubio is under pressure to resign following Republican midterm losses that have caused the party to lose control of both the House and Senate.
Washington insiders and British officials said Rubio may step down to distance himself from the Iran war and position himself for a presidential bid in 2028, when Vice President J. Dee Vance will be defined as his main opponent.
A Washington official said Rubio is the front-runner for the Republican nomination and that the midterms have fueled speculation that four or five cabinet members could "run for the hills" after the defeat.
