President-elect Donald Trump is expected to offer Kelly Loeffler, who served briefly as a Republican senator from Georgia, the job of Agriculture secretary, CNN reported today. “He is set to meet with her at Mar-a-Lago Friday afternoon, but as is always the case, nothing is final until Trump announces it,” CNN noted.
Loeffler, 53, briefly represented Georgia in the Senate after being appointed in 2019 following the resignation of then-Sen. Johnny Isakson, a Republican.
CNN noted, “Loeffler, appointed to the Senate by Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp over the wishes of Trump, lost her seat in a 2021 runoff to Democratic now-Sen. Raphael Warnock.”
