Conservative author, media figure and former Treasury official Monica Crowley was confirmed late Monday to become assistant secretary of state and chief of protocol with the rank of ambassador.

Crowley, who was a longtime former Fox News contributor and foreign affairs analyst, previously served in the first Trump administration and received the Alexander Hamilton Award from the Treasury Department during that time.

"Monica will be the administration representative for major U.S. hosted events, including America's 250th birthday in 2026, the FIFA World Cup in 2026, and the Olympic Games in Los Angeles in 2028," President Donald Trump said in a December statement announcing her nomination.

Crowley holds a doctorate in international relations from Columbia University.
