Trump Taps Loyalist Rollins for Controversial USDA Chief Role
President-elect Donald Trump has announced Brooke Rollins, a former policy adviser and CEO of the America First Policy Institute, as his pick for Secretary of Agriculture. Rollins, a vocal supporter of Trump, was previously considered for the role of White House chief of staff but opted for the Agriculture position. Initially, Trump was expected to offer the post to former Georgia Sen. Kelly Loeffler, but ultimately chose Rollins, citing her commitment to American farmers and food self-sufficiency.
