Trump nominates WWE co-founder Linda McMahon as Education Secretary
Donald Trump has nominated Linda McMahon, co-founder of WWE, as Education Secretary. This announcement follows his selection of Mehmet Oz as administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Trump praised McMahon's leadership experience and understanding of education and business. McMahon previously led the Small Business Administration during Trump's first presidency and has a long history with Trump and WWE. Her nomination comes despite Trump's past criticism of the Education Department, which he has suggested could be shut down. Other recent nominations include Elon Musk for a new Department of Government Efficiency and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Health Secretary. These choices reflect Trump's trend of appointing loyal supporters from his campaign.
