Kari Lake, a former broadcast journalist who unsuccessfully ran for governor and for a U.S. Senate seat in Arizona, is President-elect Donald Trump's selection to lead Voice of America.

Trump is set to resume office next month where he is expected to implement a slew of hardline immigration policies.

It's not ambassador to Mexico, but Kari Lake will have a position under President-elect Donald Trump. The post Trump Picks Kari Lake To Lead VOA first appeared on Mediaite.

Donald Trump takes office next month following months of campaigning on immigration issues and vowing mass deportations. Some local officials, such as Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, say they’ll continue to protect migrants who came into the country without authorization against Trump’s threats of deportation.

President-elect Donald Trump made the promise of mass deportations a pillar of his re-election bid. He's pledged to deport millions of immigrants — including some who are living in the United States legally.
