President Donald Trump 's new Secretary of Transportation has an interesting Massachusetts connection. Sean Duffy, who was sworn in on Wednesday as part of the 47th president's cabinet, is a former Wisconsin congressman, an ex-Fox Business television host and, surprisingly enough, a reality TV show star.

Prior to his appointment, Sean Duffy served as a Wisconsin congressman and district attorney and before that he was a reality TV star.

Long before Sean Duffy was nominated Department of Transportation secretary, Duffy was a reality star, who appeared on various channels including MTV.
