Trump Nominates Sean Duffy as Transportation Secretary

President-elect Donald Trump has nominated former Wisconsin Congressman Sean Duffy as his secretary of transportation, marking his second appointment of a Fox News personality to the Cabinet. Duffy, a reality TV star from MTV's 'The Real World' and co-host of 'The Bottom Line' on Fox Business, served nearly nine years in Congress, where he was known for his bipartisan work on infrastructure. Trump described Duffy as a 'tremendous and well-liked public servant' who will focus on rebuilding America's infrastructure while ensuring safety and efficiency in travel. His nomination comes as Trump continues to assemble a team from his media allies, having previously selected Pete Hegseth for defense secretary. Duffy, a father of nine, emphasized his commitment to making travel safer for families during his tenure. Critics remain cautious about Trump's pattern of appointing individuals with media backgrounds to significant government roles.
