Trump Nominates Tammy Bruce for UN Deputy Role

President Donald Trump has nominated Tammy Bruce, the current State Department spokesperson and former Fox News contributor, to serve as U.S. deputy representative to the United Nations with the rank of ambassador. Bruce is known for her media background and vocal support of Trump administration policies, including controversial positions on global issues like Israel and Ukraine. Her tenure as spokesperson has been marked by reluctance to answer detailed questions and a lack of prior foreign policy experience. The nomination requires Senate confirmation, and Bruce would serve under Michael Waltz, who is also awaiting confirmation as U.N. ambassador. This move extends Trump's trend of appointing former conservative media figures to prominent government posts. It remains unclear who will replace Bruce as State Department spokesperson if she is confirmed.
