101 - The U.S. Representative to the United Nations

Elise Stefanik, a Republican representative from New York, has been nominated by President Donald Trump to serve as the United States Representative to the United Nations. According to AOL news reports, Stefanik accepted the offer from Trump, her longtime ally in Congress. This nomination positions her to represent American interests on the global stage at the United Nations in New York City.

The announcement came amid speculation about her political future. AOL also reports that Stefanik bristled at claims from House Speaker Mike Johnson that they had discussed her potentially running for New York governor, which would require her to resign her House seat. She stated clearly she had no such conversations with Johnson.

In recent days, this development has drawn attention as Stefanik prepares to transition from domestic policy battles to international diplomacy. As a vocal supporter of Trump, she has criticized United Nations handling of issues like antisemitism and Israel-related resolutions during her time in Congress. Her nomination underscores Trump's preference for loyalists in key foreign policy roles.

CBS News New York coverage highlights related political pressures on other New York Republicans, such as Representative Mike Lawler opting not to run for governor under Trump influence, reflecting the fluid dynamics in the state's delegation.

Stefanik's expected confirmation process in the Senate could shape early discussions on global hotspots, including Middle East tensions and Ukraine aid debates at the United Nations.

President Donald Trump announced he is withdrawing the nomination of Representative Elise Stefanik of New York to serve as United States Representative to the United Nations. The Daily Signal reports this decision aims to protect the Republican majority in the House of Representatives. Trump posted on social media that he asked Stefanik to remain in Congress to help advance his agenda, according to CBS News New York. This move came on March 27, 2025, as detailed in the Daily Signal article by Elizabeth Troutman Mitchell.

Stefanik, a prominent Republican from New York, had been tapped for the high-profile diplomatic role. Her potential departure from the House raised concerns about losing a key seat in a competitive district. House Republicans emphasized the need to maintain their slim majority amid ongoing legislative battles, including funding disputes and immigration enforcement issues.

The withdrawal avoids a confirmation process that could have distracted from domestic priorities. Trump praised Stefanik's loyalty and effectiveness in Congress, signaling her continued importance to his legislative push. CBS News New York noted this as part of broader political maneuvers during a period of government funding tensions.

No immediate replacement for the United Nations position has been named. Stefanik's decision keeps her focused on House committees where she has influenced foreign policy and intelligence matters.

Elise Stefanik serves as the United States Representative to the United Nations, a role confirmed by the Senate in recent days amid President Donald Trump's second term appointments. According to the Congressional Research Service in its August 28 overview of United Nations issues and congressional representatives to the UN General Assembly, Stefanik now leads US diplomatic efforts at the world body, focusing on advancing American interests in global forums.

In her initial actions, Stefanik addressed escalating tensions in the Middle East. Dawn news reports from January 28 detail UN Security Council debates where Pakistani Ambassador Asim Iftikhar Ahmad highlighted ongoing Gaza challenges, including ceasefire violations and humanitarian crises, while welcoming Trump's Peace Plan endorsed by resolution 2803. Stefanik, representing the US position, emphasized strict enforcement of the ceasefire, reconstruction aid, and opposition to illegal settlements, aligning with the US-backed Board of Peace for transitional stability.

Politifact on January 28 noted broader US foreign policy contexts under Trump, though Stefanik's direct involvement in UN proceedings marks her as a key voice on Palestinian statehood discussions and Israeli actions. Experts cited in Associated Press analyses from September 2025 underscore the UN's role in disaster and conflict response, areas where Stefanik coordinates with allies.

Her appointment has drawn attention for its potential to reshape US stances on international resolutions, with Dawn reporting Pakistan's push for a two-state solution met by US calls for accountability and aid delivery. Stefanik's tenure begins as the Security Council navigates fragile ceasefires and reconstruction in Gaza.

Elise Stefanik, the New York Republican congresswoman once nominated by President Donald Trump to be the United States Representative to the United Nations, has made headlines this week with a key legislative victory. According to AOL reports, Stefanik publicly clashed with House Speaker Mike Johnson, calling him a political novice in a Wall Street Journal interview and accusing him of lacking support among Republicans. She demanded her provision be added back to the National Defense Authorization Act after it was dropped.

The provision requires the Federal Bureau of Investigation to notify Congress about counterintelligence investigations into presidential or federal candidates. Stefanik, a staunch Trump ally, secured its inclusion after phone calls with Trump and Johnson on Tuesday evening. She posted on X that the talks were productive and marked a breakthrough against what she calls the deep states illegal weaponization.

AOL articles detail how Stefanik blamed Johnson for initially blocking the measure, siding with Democrats to protect deep state interests. She referenced past probes like Crossfire Hurricane into Trumps 2016 campaign and Jack Smiths Arctic Frost investigation into 2020 election efforts. Johnson responded in a press conference, expressing surprise and offering to help, noting the issue involved committee disagreements.

Tensions trace back to Trump rescinding Stefaniks United Nations nomination earlier this year due to the slim Republican House majority, after she stepped down as House Republican Conference chair. Punchbowl News reports she held Johnson responsible. By Wednesday, Stefanik walked back her criticism, praising the resolution and focusing on results for Americans.

Stefanik also signed a discharge petition to ban lawmakers from stock trading, signaling more clashes with Johnson amid pressure from Trump allies like Marjorie Taylor Greene. As she runs for New York governor, these moves highlight her influence in Republican leadership.

Elise Stefanik, once nominated by President Donald Trump as United States Representative to the United Nations, has made headlines this week with a sharp public clash against House Speaker Mike Johnson. According to AOL reports, Stefanik accused Johnson of acting like a political novice and siding with Democrats to block her key provision in the National Defense Authorization Act. She claimed he lacked support among Republicans and would not survive a speaker vote, sparking tensions after Trump rescinded her United Nations nomination earlier this year to preserve the slim House majority.

The dispute centered on Stefanik's long-pursued measure requiring the Federal Bureau of Investigation to notify Congress about counterintelligence probes into presidential or federal candidates. AOL articles detail how she vented frustration in a Wall Street Journal interview, calling Johnson out for allegedly lying and torpedoing the Republican agenda by protecting what she termed the deep state. This echoed concerns from the Crossfire Hurricane investigation into Trump's two thousand sixteen campaign and recent probes like Arctic Frost.

By Wednesday, Stefanik secured victory after phone calls with Trump and Johnson. She posted on social media that the provision, now in the Intelligence Authorization Act attached to the defense bill, marks a win against government weaponization. A follow-up statement praised a productive talk with Johnson, shifting focus to results for Americans, including New York affordability issues. The Hill reports confirm this breakthrough, noting Stefanik's role in pushing notifications for investigations amid past secrecy on lawmakers' records.

Tensions linger from her dropped United Nations bid, which she partly blamed on Johnson, though he denies involvement. As a Trump ally and New York gubernatorial hopeful, Stefanik's moves highlight Republican leadership strains.
