Show Notes
Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullin, a former MMA fighter and plumbing business owner, faces Senate confirmation today for Homeland Security Secretary, a role previously held by Kristi Noem, who was fired amid criticism. Mullin, a close Trump ally, is known for tough immigration stance and promises to push mass deportation plans. However, Democrats plan to question him on executing this agenda amid a partial government shutdown, with concerns over aggressive tactics by officers leading to public outrage and airport security delays. Noems tenure also saw delays in disaster aid approvals and a lack of permanent FEMA leadership.
