President-elect Donald Trump has chosen Rep. Elise Stefanik as the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, rewarding her loyalty and strong defense of him in Congress. Stefanik, the chair of the House Republican Conference, is known for her fierce questioning of college presidents over pro-Palestinian protests and her alignment with Trump's policies.
