President-elect Donald Trump has selected former Rep. Doug Collins to lead the Department of Veterans Affairs. Collins, who previously served as a congressman, has been chosen to oversee the important agency that provides healthcare and benefits to millions of American veterans.
Collins' appointment comes after a controversial incident in 2020 when he issued an apology for making an unfounded claim that accused Democrats of being 'in love with terrorists.' This statement drew criticism and raised concerns about his ability to lead a government agency that serves a diverse population of veterans.
