Monica Elizabeth Crowley, a contributor to Project 2025’s over 900-page Mandate for Leadership, has been chosen as Trump’s Ambassador, Assistant Secretary of State, and Chief of Protocol of the United States of America.

Accusations of plagiarism forced Crowley to withdraw from consideration for a role in the National Security Council during Trump’s first term, though she later became the spokeswoman for the Treasury Department.

Crowley denied that she had plagiarized large sections of her 2012 book, but CNN’s Kaczynski, who originally reported on the scandal, pointed out that nobody had asked for corrections on his piece. Additionally, the book’s publisher, HarperCollins, pulled the book from sales, saying it would not be available until Crowley corrected the issues.

Crowley has a decades-long history of apparent plagiarism. She was accused of stealing parts of an article she wrote in 1999, and Politico found evidence of plagiarism in her Ph.D. dissertation for Columbia.

As Chief of Protocol, Crowley would be in charge of receiving foreign dignitaries in the United States. Her history of Islamophobia, including calling Obama a “secret Muslim” and suggesting that all Muslims are enemies of the United States, should raise questions about her ability to receive officials from majority-Muslim nations and fulfill the mission to “build new bridges of understanding” with those countries.
