In January 2025, she was named as a contender for the role of U.S. Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism in the Second cabinet of Donald Trump by the New York Post.

In February 2025, Savetsky posted to her Instagram account a video clip of the far-right politician Meir Kahane, who was convicted of multiple acts of terrorism in the United States and in Israel. Savetsky wrote that "Rabbi Meir Kahane, of blessed memory, was labeled as a violent extremist, but he was right. This is the truth right here. The only language the Arabs understand is force and fear." The post triggered an immediate and mostly negative reaction.

Savetsky also endorsed Trump's proposed plan to remove Palestinians from the Gaza Strip. In a follow-up video and interview, she stated that she endorsed only the specific message she shared, not all of Kahane's views. She also elaborated that she supports the use of force to combat Palestinian terrorism, which motivated her to post the initial video.
