Trump Nominates Investment Banker and GOP Donor Warren Stephens as US Ambassador to UK
Dec 2, 2024, 11:56 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has nominated billionaire investment banker Warren Stephens to serve as the United States ambassador to the United Kingdom, a prestigious diplomatic posting. Stephens is the chairman, president, and CEO of Stephens Inc., a financial services firm based in Little Rock, Arkansas. He is a major donor to Republican causes and has contributed millions to Trump's reelection campaign and various Trump SuperPACs over the years. Trump praised Stephens as "one of the most successful businessmen in the country," highlighting his business acumen and philanthropic efforts. The nomination fulfills Stephens' long-held dream of serving the United States full time. Stephens also plays a significant role in the American Opportunity Alliance, a prominent network of major donors. The nomination is pending Senate confirmation and, if confirmed, Stephens would succeed Woody Johnson, who served as ambassador to the UK during Trump's previous term.
