Who likely won’t be any more incompetent than Noem, but won’t attract as much attention as well.

Not necessarily a good thing. I’m expecting more depravity and more brutality, but better presented.

Is there a stupidity field around the man?

Is it one of those "one whiff" kind of things?

Is it a device you have to wear?

Is the kidnapping of loved ones involved?

And good grief, Markwayne Mullin.

The good news is he’ll have to resign from the Senate.
The bad news is it’s Markwayne Mullin.

I’m sure he’ll be kind and compassionate when dealing with disaster victims and refugees

From a brief search…Mullin is a rancher and restaurant owner who owns the family plumbing business in Oklahoma. He does not have a college degree. He prides himself on his Christian values. He’s the guy who tried to rip away Al Green’s sign at the SOTU. Total suck up. Another great pick, piggie.

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump

I am pleased to announce that the Highly Respected United States Senator from the Great State of Oklahoma, Markwayne Mullin, will become the United States Secretary of Homeland Security (DHS), effective March 31, 2026. The current Secretary, Kristi Noem, who has served us well, and has had numerous and spectacular results (especially on the Border!), will be moving to be Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas, our new Security Initiative in the Western Hemisphere we are announcing on Saturday in Doral, Florida. I thank Kristi for her service at �Homeland.�

Serving 10 years in the United States House of Representatives, and 3 in the Senate, Markwayne has done a tremendous job representing the wonderful People of Oklahoma, where I won all 77 out of 77 Counties � in 2016, 2020, and 2024! A MAGA Warrior, and former undefeated professional MMA fighter, Markwayne truly gets along well with people, and knows the Wisdom and Courage required to Advance our America First Agenda. As the only Native American in the Senate, Markwayne is a fantastic advocate for our incredible Tribal Communities. Markwayne will work tirelessly to Keep our Border Secure, Stop Migrant Crime, Murderers, and other Criminals from illegally entering our Country, End the Scourge of Illegal Drugs and, MAKE AMERICA SAFE AGAIN. Markwayne will make a spectacular Secretary of Homeland Security. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

making sense to me.
If someone rubs Trump the wrong way, they are fired, gone. Noem has reportedly been reassigned to some new security thing Trump is blabbing about.
Doesn't add up, I'm not sure what to think of it

The dog killer should never have been confirmed in the first place. It was probably the revelation about the firm she used for those so called PSAs was what did her in.
