Sean Duffy, a Wisconsin native, has been selected by former President Donald Trump to take over as secretary of transportation. While many may recognize Duffy from his time on reality TV shows and appearances on Fox News, there is much more to his diverse background. From log rolling and speed climbing championships to a career in politics that culminated in a key cabinet role, Duffy’s journey is full of fascinating twists and turns.
Duffy first gained attention as a reality TV star on MTV’s “The Real World: Boston” and “Road Rules: All Stars.” He then transitioned to a successful political career, serving as a district attorney before pulling off an upset victory in Wisconsin’s 7th District congressional race in 2010.
In addition to his TV and political accomplishments, Duffy is also a skilled athlete, winning speed-climbing championships and being named the Badger State Games MVP. He holds a law degree from William Mitchell College of Law and comes from a large family, being the 10th of 11 children and having nine children of his own with his wife, Rachel Campos.
Now, as he takes on the role of secretary of transportation, Duffy continues to share his insights on national politics as a co-host of “The Bottom Line” on Fox Business and as a contributor on Fox News. His journey from reality TV stardom to Capitol Hill leadership is a testament to his diverse background and determination to succeed in various arenas.
