Monica Elizabeth Crowley[1] (born September 19, 1968) is the former Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs for the U.S. Department of the Treasury.[2][1] She has been a political commentator and lobbyist.[3] She was a Fox News contributor, where she worked (with a few breaks) from 1996 to 2017. She is a former online opinion editor for The Washington Times and a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.

In December 2016, the Donald Trump administration announced that Crowley would be appointed a deputy national security advisor for the National Security Council. She withdrew a month later following reports that she had plagiarized portions of her 2012 book What the (Bleep) Just Happened? and her 2000 Ph.D. dissertation that Columbia concluded did not meet the level of "research misconduct."[4] On July 16, 2019, Trump announced Crowley's appointment as spokesperson for the Treasury Department. On July 24, 2019, she was sworn into office.[5]
