According to an exclusive report from The Wall Street Journal, President-elect Donald Trump is expected to name Brooke Rollins to lead the Agriculture Department.
Rollins is a former domestic policy adviser to Trump and is the current president of America First Policy Institute.
Rollins spoke to Trump about the potential job offer earlier this week.
She grew up on a farm and graduated from Texas A&M University, completing her degree in agriculture development. She used to lead the Texas Public Policy Foundation, a conservative think tank.
An ally of Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law, Rollins was once considered a contender to be White House chief of staff. However, Susie Wiles, who helped run Trump’s campaign, was chosen for that role.
During Trump’s first term, Rollins led the Domestic Policy Council. A Texas native, she previously ran the Texas Public Policy Foundation, a conservative-leaning think tank.
If confirmed, Rollins would likely play a role in discussions about Trump’s plans for sweeping tariffs on U.S. imports, which could affect American farmers.

AND…..his nominee for Labor Secretary, Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer of Oregon, co-sponsor of the PRO Act (formally known as the Protecting the Right to Organize Act). She was one of only 3 house Republicans to support the PRO Act, which could have overturned right to work laws in a majority of states. She is for amnesty for illegal aliens. She cosponsored the Dems’ American Dream and Promise Act, as well as the DIGNITY Act, both straight up amnesties. Teacher’s Unions already releasing statements celebrating this pick, emphasizing her awful record on issues like school choice and worker’s rights..
It tells a lot about the integrity of people who suddenly betray all they believe in. LOL. How do we the people trust someone like that? It’s not exactly the strategy I would use to go at warp speed to fix the USA but hey what do I know.
