President-elect Donald Trump announced Wednesday that he has nominated Monica Crowley to serve in three pivotal roles: ambassador, assistant secretary of State, and chief of protocol of the United States.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump revealed that Crowley will represent the U.S. at several major upcoming events including America’s 250th Birthday in 2026, the FIFA World Cup in 2026, and the Olympic Games in Los Angeles in 2028. Crowley served as the assistant secretary of the Treasury for public affairs during Trump’s first term.

“For her exceptional service, she received the Alexander Hamilton Award, the highest honor bestowed by the Department. Monica is a New York Times bestselling author, and has been a popular anchor, and political and foreign affairs analyst, for the Fox News Channel and Fox Business Network, among others. A graduate of Colgate University, she holds two Master’s degrees, and a Doctorate in International Relations, from Columbia University,” Trump wrote. “She will be an extraordinary Representative of our Country. Congratulations Monica!”

Crowley frequently appears on television, as a commentator for Fox News and writing columns for major outlets like The New York Post​. She also boasts an extensive academic record, holding a Ph.D. in international relations from Columbia University.

Crowley previously served as foreign policy assistant to former President Richard Nixon from 1990 until his death in 1994. She went on to write two bestsellers, “Nixon in Winter” and “Nixon Off the Record,” detailing her experiences working with Nixon, from their initial meeting when she was a college student to accompanying him on global diplomatic journeys.
