Trump nominates WWE co-founder Linda McMahon as Education Secretary
President-elect Donald Trump has chosen Linda McMahon, co-founder of WWE and a long-time ally, as his nominee for education secretary. McMahon previously served as head of the Small Business Administration during Trump’s first presidency and is known for her significant financial support of his campaigns.
Announcing the pick on Truth Social, Trump praised McMahon’s leadership skills and business expertise, saying she would help “empower the next generation of American students and workers.” Her nomination aligns with Trump’s criticism of the Department of Education, which he has pledged to dismantle, a task she may oversee if confirmed.
