Duffy served in Congress from 2010 to 2018 before resigning to take care of his child, who has Down syndrome. He has since co-hosted The Bottom Line on Fox Business with his family, and he contributes to Fox News.
The original senator’s real-world experience dates back to 1997 when he appeared on MTV’s Real World, where they cohabitated for several weeks without knowing each other. Duffy was described by the community as a “typical Western boy” from Hayward, Wisconsin.

In announcing Duffy’s election, Trump touted that Duffy may ensure the government’s ships and dams” serve our Economy without compromising our National Security” and that his nomination had also eliminate” DE I for pilots and air traffic controllers”.
Duffy’s election comes about a fortnight after Trump nominated Pete Hegseth, a co-host of Fox News’s Fox and Friends Weekend, as the government’s secretary of defense. Following Hegseth’s election, many media outlets opted to focus on his time on Fox News rather than how he is a senior.
