Trump plans to appoint Linda McMahon as education secretary

President-elect Donald Trump plans to appoint Linda McMahon as his education secretary. McMahon, co-founder of WWE and former head of the Small Business Administration, is a close ally of Trump and co-chair of his transition team. Trump has expressed intentions to close the Department of Education, which currently provides about 10% of school funding. This move would require significant legislative support, making it a challenging goal. McMahon's husband, Vince, recently resigned from WWE amid allegations of sexual misconduct, which he denies. The couple is also facing a lawsuit related to past abuse claims within WWE.
