President Trump has made his choice for the all-important position of United States Ambassador to the United Nations, and he is sending an obvious signal by choosing New York Congresswoman Elise Stefanik.

Rep. Stefanik is most recently known for absolutely eviscerating University leadership when the anti-Israel agitators aligned with HAMAS overran campuses last year.  She has been a staunch ally of President Trump through the lawfare of the past few years, is known to be extremely tough, and is solidly pro-life; which likely foretells of a pushback against the flagrant bias of the United Nations against the sanctity of life, particularly that of the unborn.

Here’s a quick clip from Fox News with President Trump’s choice of Stefanik as his next U.N. Ambassador, which is already making waves.

Here’s a memory jogging look back at Rep. Stefanik grilling the FBI Director of Joe Biden’s mishandling of classified documents, and then a clip of her destroying the arguments of those who literally argued in favor of the genocide of Jews.

According to a report in Fox News, Stefanik is considered an America First Republican, and is the fourth-most powerful Republican currently serving in the House of Representatives.

“I am honored to nominate Chairwoman Elise Stefanik to serve in my Cabinet as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. Elise is an incredibly strong, tough, and smart America First fighter,” Trump said in comment provided to Fox News Digital. A person with direct knowledge of the matter additionally confirmed to Fox News Digital that Trump has chosen the New York Republican for the role.

Stefanik is a longtime Trump ally who has chaired the House Republican Conference since 2021, serving as the fourth-most powerful Republican in the House. She was first elected to the House in blue New York in 2014 at the age of 30, making her the youngest woman elected to the House at the time.

In the last year alone, Stefanik has been a conservative firebrand who grilled “morally bankrupt” college leaders over their handling of antisemitism on campus following Hamas attacking Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.

Stefanik has been exceptionally tough when it comes to the “Biden Crime Family”, as she has often referred to them, according to a story in the New York Post on Trump’s decision.  And as opposed to outgoing UN Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield, Stefanik is known to use the media as part of her strategy when she sets her sights on a target — so we should expect to hear her name often in the coming months as President Trump enacts his agenda in the U.S. and the world.

Stefanik, the No. 4 House Republican, has been a close Trump ally, including serving on his ceremonial defense team in 2020 during his first impeachment trial for pressuring Ukraine to investigate alleged Biden family corruption.

The Harvard grad worked to turn the tables on what she called the “Biden Crime Family” and has regularly appeared on TV to drive home the Republican positions on issues — setting up a likely a contrast from the outgoing UN ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield, who rarely courted media attention.

“I am truly honored to earn President Trump’s nomination to serve in his Cabinet as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations,” Stefanik said in a statement confirming her acceptance of the role.

“During my conversation with President Trump, I shared how deeply humbled I am to accept his nomination and that I look forward to earning the support of my colleagues in the United States Senate.”

“President Trump’s historic landslide election has given hope to the American people and is a reminder that brighter days are ahead — both at home and abroad,” she told The Post.

“America continues to be the beacon of the world, but we expect and must demand that our friends and allies be strong partners in the peace we seek.”

President Trump’s choice of Stefanik isn’t without criticism, even from within Republican circles, to be sure.  Firstly is the question of the temporary hit the U.S. House would take in losing her.

Nevertheless, I highly doubt that President Trump made this decision on a whim, or according to some need to placate ANYONE, nor without forethought of the ramifications in the House along with a plan forward.  In fact, I suspect he already knew his choice — he was simply waiting long enough to be confident of the outcome in the House, which I am guessing became clear from his vantage point before announcing this decision.

Check out Stefanik’s reaction to Trump’s decision to make her UN Ambassador:

Considering President Trump’s recent discussions with Putin and Zelensky, and now this decision, I would expect all the belligerents in the wars currently threatening the world — and the U.S. position in it — to be on notice.  President Trump is not Joe Biden.  He’ll make a deal, when it makes sense.  But he’s not going to keep printing money day after day to fund foreign wars that don’t serve U.S. interests, and he’s not going to allow America’s enemies to threaten us directly, or indirectly by threatening our allies.
