NEW: Trump Selects Frequent Fox News Guest For Surgeon General


0

Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, a familiar face to Fox News viewers and a double board-certified medical doctor, has been selected by President-elect Donald Trump to serve as the next U.S. Surgeon General. The nomination, made official with the Trump-Vance transition team’s statement on Friday, spotlights a figure with frontline medical experience, particularly during disasters and the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dr. Nesheiwat has appeared regularly on Fox News, where she has been a vocal advocate for preventive healthcare and public health education. Her alignment with Trump’s messaging—particularly during discussions on Operation Warp Speed and disaster relief efforts—has made her a recognizable name in conservative circles.

In his statement, Trump praised Nesheiwat’s “unwavering commitment to saving and treating thousands of American lives,” citing her work in crises ranging from Hurricane Katrina to the Joplin tornadoes. A member of Samaritan’s Purse Disaster Assistance Team, she has also provided care in Morocco, Haiti, and Poland, further solidifying her reputation for hands-on humanitarian work.

One of five children raised by a widowed immigrant mother who worked as a nurse, Nesheiwat’s journey from humble beginnings to the nation’s top medical position is emblematic of the American Dream according to Trump. She graduated from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and has since become a passionate advocate for accessible, affordable healthcare.

During the pandemic, Dr. Nesheiwat worked in New York City, treating patients at the height of the crisis. Her focus on preventive care and health education aligns with Trump’s pledge to “Make America Healthy Again,” a phrase he has emphasized in his cabinet announcements.

Dr. Nesheiwat has endorsed vaccines, including those questioned by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Trump’s nominee for Secretary of Health and Human Services, according to Politico. However, she has occasionally questioned the CDC’s recommendations on COVID vaccines, suggesting earlier this year that for many Americans, particularly the youth, the potential risks of the vaccine could exceed its benefits, though she noted that these risks are minor for most people. Throughout the pandemic, Nesheiwat has expressed skepticism towards government mandates.

Dr. Nesheiwat will face a Senate confirmation process that could test the Republican Party’s slim majority.

Since his election victory on November 5, President-elect Trump has wasted no time assembling a bold and eclectic Cabinet, blending political veterans, media figures, and business leaders. Among his key picks are Senator Marco Rubio as Secretary of State, Pete Hegseth for Defense, and Pam Bondi as Attorney General after Matt Gaetz stepped aside amid controversy. Notably, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been tapped to lead Health and Human Services.

Other appointees include Kristi Noem as Homeland Security Secretary, Linda McMahon for Education, and Sean Duffy for Transportation. Tulsi Gabbard is set to become Director of National Intelligence, while John Ratcliffe will helm the CIA. Scott Bessent, a hedge fund executive, has been nominated as Treasury Secretary, signaling confidence on Wall Street.

In a surprise move, Trump proposed a Department of Government Efficiency, with Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy co-chairing. Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee will serve as Ambassador to Israel, and Elise Stefanik is heading to the UN.

While some choices have sparked controversy, they align with his campaign promises to “drain the swamp” and shake up Washington.
