He has had some critics point out the lack of diversity in his choices so far. He is looking to get minority/women on board.
She could work out well with her background.

I Googled first and did not come up with anything incriminating other than a reference as a Fox News Insider, whatever that means.
with your help, found this, so this is what bothers you,

She's particularly a favorite of right-wing media. Appearing with Fox's Neil Cavuto last week, she lashed out at the White House for holding an extremism summit with Muslim Americans, saying it's a “diversion from what our real focus needs to be. And that focus is on that Islamic extremist threat.” She criticized Obama for saying that “poverty, lack of access to jobs, lack of access to education” is contributing to radicalization. “They are not fueled by materialistic motivation, it's actually a theological, this radical Islamic ideology,” she said, throwing red meat to Fox viewers.
not the enemy of my friend?

Beat you to it, see my edit. You should read further into that article instead of cherry picking, Raj.
