From CBS News: President Trump on Saturday said he is nominating State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce as the next deputy representative to the United Nations.
“Since the beginning of my Second Term, Tammy has been serving with distinction as Spokesperson of the State Department, where she did a fantastic job,” the president said in a Truth Social post.
Bruce will receive the rank of ambassador, Mr. Trump said, if her nomination is confirmed by the Senate.
It’s unclear who will replace Bruce’s position in the State Department.
President Trump has previously nominated former national security advisor Mike Waltz to be U.S. Ambassador to the United States, but he has not yet been confirmed to the position.
The report explains if Bruce and Waltz are both confirmed, Bruce would serve under Waltz and assume the duties of the U.N. ambassador when he’s absent.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote, “I am pleased to announce that I am nominating Tammy Bruce, a Great Patriot, Television Personality, and Bestselling Author, as our next Deputy Representative of the United States to the United Nations, with the rank of Ambassador. Since the beginning of my Second Term, Tammy has been serving with distinction as Spokesperson of the State Department, where she did a fantastic job. Tammy Bruce will represent our Country brilliantly at the United Nations. Congratulations Tammy!”
Bruce replied, “Thank you President Trump! So grateful for @POTUS’s trust in nominating me as the Deputy Representative of the US at the UN. I’ve been honored to serve as @StateDept Spokesperson, and now I’m blessed that in the next few weeks my commitment to advancing America First leadership and values continues on the global stage in this new post. Onward! 🇺🇸❤️.”
