Trump Nominates Tammy Bruce US Deputy UN Representative

U.S. President Donald Trump has nominated Tammy Bruce, the current State Department spokesperson, to serve as the next Deputy U.S. Representative to the United Nations with the rank of Ambassador. Bruce, who has been serving in her spokesperson role since January 2025, has defended the Trump administration’s foreign policy on several high-profile issues including immigration, responses to conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza, and controversial aid operations. She is a well-known television personality, political commentator, and author of several books critical of liberal viewpoints, including the bestseller "Fear Itself: Exposing the Left's Mind-Killing Agenda." Trump praised her political instincts and communication skills, describing her work at the State Department as "fantastic" and expressing confidence in her ability to represent the U.S. effectively at the UN. Bruce’s nomination requires Senate confirmation, and while no exact timeline has been provided, she indicated on social media that her new role is expected in the coming weeks. Trump has also nominated former White House national security adviser Mike Waltz as the U.S. Ambassador to the UN, who would be Bruce’s superior once confirmed.
