President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Callista Gingrich, wife of former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-GA) to serve as the next U.S. ambassador to Switzerland. She previously served as ambassador to the Vatican during Trump’s first term.

On Sunday afternoon Trump nominated a handful of supporters to serve as ambassadors to foreign allies, including Callista Gingrich.

Trump announced the appointment on Truth Social, praising Gingrich for defending religious freedom and combating human trafficking during her tenue as Vatican ambassador. Her husband was a vocal supporter of Trump during the 2024 presidential primary and general election.

“I am pleased to announce Callista L. Gingrich will be our next United States Ambassador to Switzerland,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Happily married to the Great Newt Gingrich, Callista previously served, with distinction, as my Ambassador to the Holy See.”

Anyone will do!

2. Happily might have waited until last wife was cold

[Dennis Donovan]

3. Here she is...

...about to swoop from the sky and snatch its prey.

[Timeflyer]

4. Gah!

[Hassin Bin Sober]

17. Separated at birth

[BOSSHOG]

5. Gingrich stranded a plane load of Sailors in 94, I was one of them

He did so by displaying his leadership by shutting down the government which is giving his wife a nice paying job for doing damn near nothing. Conservative values in action.

15. I was out in the cold with literally the clothes on my back...

I had to call my folks collect to wire me bus fare to get 1000 miles back before I was declared AWOL.

On any deployment after that I carried an emergency fund of enough cash to get me the Hell out of wherever I was. Which introduced additional dangers. But, my trust in the system was gone.

They didn’t have my back and apparently never did.

6. They'll blend into the background well

7. Sending psychopaths....,

coupled with a white mental superiority bully do not go well with sane democratic countries. I can see these countries kicking them out.

[Attilatheblond]

8. Daughter & I were just talking about how suddenly quiet the Newt has been

after several attempts to pretend he was relevant over the past few months. We figured he was told to lay low & behave and the Missus would get another cushy job in Europe. The Despotic GOP has to keep the Newt silenced as he sometimes reminds voters of just how bad government can become for the most petty of reasons.

9. A country where I had a lot business in

sorry my Swiss friends! Please keep in mind that not all Americans are complete idiotic brainless imbeciles!

[Raven123]

10. Recycling diplomats tells you his circle of the willing is limited

[FalloutShelter]

11. Passing out Embassy assignments like

Snickers bars.
The Enshitification of our international reputation continues.

[joanbarnes]

12. Is this the person Newt "Family Values" cheated on his dying wife with?

[FakeNoose]

16. The same. But in all honesty, the cheating probably started several years earlier

I doubt that he waited until his first wife was on her deathbed.

[rurallib]

19. Newt cheated on a previous wife with this one. Has Newt

cheated on this one yet? I get so confused with the Christian values of the right.

Was Calista the one giving Newt a bj in newt's kids' school parking lot?

We need a chart

[not fooled]

21. Newt probably has aged out of cheating

Otherwise, I wouldn't bet against him.

[City Lights]

13. I pity Switzerland having to deal with that clueless

nobody.

[tonekat]

14. The prematurely embalmed wife

of that little shit. Just disgusting.

[Solly Mack]

18. Snort

[rsdsharp]

20. I take it Pope Francis didn't want her back.
