Trump Appoints Bill White as U.S. Ambassador to Belgium

President-elect Donald Trump has appointed Bill White, a businessperson and major political donor, as the U.S. ambassador to Belgium. White, who previously led the Intrepid Sea-Air-Space Museum, stepped down in 2010 amid a state pension scandal investigation. Despite past support for Democrats, White was a significant donor to Trump's 2024 campaign. He has been recognized for his fundraising efforts for military service members and has received awards from the U.S. Coast Guard and Navy.
