The Facts

  • US Pres.-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday nominated Linda McMahon, who co-founded World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) with her husband Vince McMahon, to head up his Department of Education.

  • McMahon, 76, led the Small Business Administration during Trump's first term and then became the chair of the pro-school-choice America First Policy Institute. She previously served on the Connecticut State Board of Education for about a year.

  • She reportedly donated over $7M to two Trump political action committees in 2016 and $10M to one this year, and reportedly shaped Trump's policy proposals regarding limiting federal influence in education.
