The Century of Celestial Superflares: A Phenomenon Worth Watching

Stars similar to the Sun produce a gigantic outburst of radiation on average about once every hundred years per star.

Elise Stefanik: Trump’s Key House Ally Tapped for UN Ambassador Role

 

 

Who is Elise Stefanik? Donald Trump has selected a key House ally as the next UN ambassador


President-elect Donald Trump has announced his choice of Rep. Elise Stefanik, a Republican from New York, to serve as the next United Nations ambassador, with reports confirming that she has agreed to the appointment.

 

This nomination marks Trump’s first cabinet selection following his reelection to a second, nonconsecutive term in the White House.

In a statement to YSL News, Trump expressed, “I am honored to nominate Chairwoman Elise Stefanik to serve in my Cabinet as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. Elise is a formidable, resilient, and intelligent advocate for America First policies.”

The New York Post was the first to report on Trump’s decision.

 

Stefanik will require confirmation from the Senate to officially take on her new role.

Stefanik stated to the Post, “I am truly humbled to accept President Trump’s nomination, and I look forward to gaining the support of my fellow senators as I take on this important position.”

 

As a five-term congresswoman, Stefanik has built a reputation as one of Trump’s most loyal supporters in Congress. She was considered a potential running mate for him in the 2024 elections and played a significant role in rallying Republican participants during this summer’s Republican National Convention.

 

One notable incident for Stefanik occurred at a congressional hearing involving college presidents from Harvard, the University of Pennsylvania, and MIT. During this session, she questioned them about whether calls for Jewish genocide should lead to disciplinary actions.

The three presidents struggled to respond directly, opting instead to focus on legal frameworks without explicitly denouncing such calls. Two of the presidents, Liz Magill of Penn and Claudine Gay of Harvard, have since resigned from their positions.
