Trump appoints Walt Nauta, Spicer to Naval Academy Board

President Donald Trump announced the appointment of four new members to the U.S. Naval Academy's Board of Visitors, including his former press secretary Sean Spicer and Navy veteran Walt Nauta, who was previously indicted alongside Trump for alleged violations related to classified documents. Trump's appointments come after he dismissed six prior board members, claiming military academies had been infiltrated by 'Woke Leftist Ideologues.' Nauta, who worked closely with Trump and has a controversial past, joins U.S. Rep. Ronny Jackson and U.S. Rep. Derrick Van Orden on the board. Critics have expressed concern over the integrity of the new board members in relation to the academy's honor code, which emphasizes values such as honesty and integrity. Trump has positioned the new appointees as 'Patriots' who will help maintain the academy's greatness. The board oversees critical aspects of the academy's operations, including student life and institutional policies.
