Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy and wife Rachel Campos-Duffy produced a seven‑month road-trip reality show funded by a nonprofit, with sponsors including Boeing, Toyota, Shell, Royal Caribbean, and United Airlines—firms overseen by Duffy’s department—raising ethics concerns as Fox promotes the project.
The wife of Transport Secretary Sean Duffy, Fox News host Rachel Campos-Duffy, faced backlash after critics highlighted that their new road-trip reality series is sponsored by companies the DOT regulates, sparking ethics concerns even as the production is claimed to be funded by a nonprofit and not taxpayers. Critics including Chasten Buttigieg and Democratic officials said the arrangement is out of touch amid high gas prices; Duffy and supporters argue officials cleared his participation and deny any taxpayer funding. The controversy coincides with the Duffys promoting a five‑part YouTube series and a spate of aviation incidents during Duffy’s tenure, adding to the tense political moment surrounding the show.
Fox News host Rachel Campos-Duffy claimed on "The Five" that former first lady Michelle Obama will run in the 2024 presidential election to take on Republican frontrunner Donald Trump. Co-host Jessica Tarlov immediately dismissed the suggestion, pointing out that Michelle Obama is not running for anything. Campos-Duffy has made the same prediction earlier this month too.
