Monica Crowley, a familiar name in conservative circles, has been nominated by President-elect Donald Trump for a prominent role in his upcoming administration. This time around, she’s set to take on multiple responsibilities, including serving as ambassador, assistant secretary of state, and chief of protocol of the United States. Apparently, the Trump administration isn’t just back, but it’s back with a splash, with Crowley playing a key part in some significant global events such as the FIFA World Cup in 2026 and the grand 250th birthday bash of the United States in the same year. Mark your calendars—extra balloons will be necessary!
Trump lauded Crowley’s previous work as assistant secretary of the Treasury for Public Affairs during his first term, a position where she certainly made waves. Not only does she bring a wealth of experience from her time on the frontline of policy-making, but she also boasts a résumé that includes hosting and contributing at Fox News, a publishing feat with her New York Times bestselling book, and recognition via the prestigious Alexander Hamilton Award. Clearly, her skill set is as well-rounded as a basketball should be for the FIFA World Cup!
The trend of tapping Fox News alumni continues, with Crowley joining notable figures like Pete Hegseth, who’s been nominated as defense secretary, and Sean Duffy, the chosen secretary of the Department of Transportation. The administration is certainly creating a Fox News all-star lineup, proving that a background in conservative media equates to real qualifications in the eyes of the Trump team. Perhaps they should open a voting chamber in the studio at Fox; it seems to be the go-to pipeline for talent!

Among the list of appointees, several women officials are stepping into potent roles, further proving that the Trump era isn’t shying away from gender representation. Joining Crowley are influential figures like Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, who’s been named the surgeon general, and the emerging political force, former Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, now poised to be the director of national intelligence. It is good to see the right side of the political spectrum embracing women in leadership, breaking the stereotype that only the left supports diversity.
As Trump gears up for the 2024 presidential transition, Crowley’s appointment signifies a broader strategy focused on the operational efficacy of the administration. It succinctly suggests that experience—and an understanding of the conservative vision—is highly valued in positions of influence. One could say that this new administration is not just about governance; it’s also about style, familiarity, and a touch of pageantry. With the appointments being filled with recognizable conservative pundits, it’s likely to be quite a spectacle moving forward.
