The nomination of U.S. Sen. Markwayne Mullin (enrolled member of the Cherokee Nation/R-OK) to become the next Homeland Security Secretary hit a rough patch Wednesday. Outgoing Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem lost the faith of President Donald Trump, but the pick to replace her, Sen. Mullin, lost the faith of the Senate Homeland Security Committee Chair, U.S. Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), for mocking him for being attacked by his neighbor nine years ago, as Matt Laslo reports. “You told the media that I was a ‘freaking snake' and that you completely understood why I had been assaulted. I was shocked that you would justify and celebrate this violent assault that caused me so much pain and my family so much pain. I just wonder if someone who applauds violence against their political opponents is the right person to lead an agency that has struggled to accept limits to the proper use of force.” Mullin is a former MMA fighter and was not backing down. “I think before I can start my opening statement, I have to address the remarks of the chairman made calling me a liar. Sir, I think there’s — everybody in this room knows that I’m very blunt and direct to the point, and if I have something to say, I’ll say it directly to your face.” While the heated exchange made national headlines, most Republican senators, like U.S. Sen. Ted. Cruz (R-TX), shrugged it off. “The two of them don’t like each other. There’s no ambiguity on that.” U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) said, “I’m not going to get involved in that.” U.S. Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) told National Native News cited his mother’s wisdom. “Reminded of what my mom would say, ‘if you don’t have something good to say about somebody, don’t say it.’ And, you know, those rules we learned in kindergarten still apply up here as well.” Even Mullin's home state colleague, U.S. Rep. Frank Lucas (R-OK), was taken aback by the barbs. “In my time in Congress, rarely have I seen such an intense exchange between two members of the same party, especially in the [U.S.] Senate. Clearly, both of them are very strong-willed, very confident in their point of view and perspective and their memory. It was just fascinating.” While most Republican senators are refusing to weigh in, Sen. Lucas says he is not discounting Chairman Paul or Mullin's accounts. “I know from having served with Markwayne in the House, I suspect the case in the [U.S.] Senate is the same — members have an insight into the nature of each other that no one on the outside can have. I never impugn the opinions of my colleagues, so maybe there was a little bit of truth in what they both had to say.” (Courtesy Asm. James Ramos / Facebook) Assemblymember James Ramos (Serrano/Cahuilla/D-CA) is urging for the establishment of California Native American Day as an official paid state holiday. A bill introduced by Asm. Ramos would designate the fourth Friday of September as a paid holiday for state employees. Ramos, along with tribal representatives, legislators, and labor leaders, held a press conference Wednesday in Sacramento., Calif. Ramos says the legislature and the state should honor California's First People with the paid holiday. “It’s true and just that this has to happen. It’s time that the voices continue to move forward and to make sure that we’re calling out for respect and honor for California’s First People and tribal elders.” Ramos say they have many worthy holidays, but the bill creates justice for past atrocities toward California Indian people who have lived through colonization, including the mission era and gold rush eras. Denver’s bison transfer included a ceremony with songs and prayers for the bisons’ safe return to tribal lands. (Photo: Rachel Cohen / KUNC) Several tribes are working to bring bison back to their lands. As the Mountain West News Bureau’s Rachel Cohen reports, one source helping them is in Denver, Colo. where the local government manages a herd. Snow was falling fast and hard at a mountain park west of the city earlier this month, when 34 bison were gifted to four tribes or nonprofits. Denver has managed two small herds since the early 1900s and started giving some animals to tribes six years ago. Lewis TallBull is with the TallBull Memorial Council, which has members from various tribes. Lewis TallBull with the TallBull Memorial Council was part of the drumming ceremony to honor the bison. (Photo: Rachel Cohen / KUNC) This year, the organization is taking one bison back to a property it manages near Denver. “The Bison represent so much. They represent the water and the fire and the thunder and the clouds and the snow. They represent all that. But at the same time, they represent us as Indigenous people.” Tribal leaders said the animals would add genetic diversity to their growing herds – and help feed tribal members with a historic food source. The Navajo Nation got 11 bison in the transfer and the Northern Cheyenne in Montana received 10. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily. Sign up for our daily newsletter today.

Senate Homeland Security Committee chair Rand Paul (R-KY) accuses Homeland Security Secretary, Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK), of having 'anger issues' and says he will oppose the nomination. Sen. Mullin also testifies about immigration enforcement, striking, as several news outlets put it, a 'milder tone' than his predecessor Kristi Noem on issues such as immigration enforcement. The hearing comes as the Homeland Security Department is still shut down over party disagreements over how to reform Immigration & Customs Enforcement or ICE.

This week, the Senate will hold a confirmation hearing for Oklahoma Republican Senator Markwayne Mullin, President Donald Trump's pick to replace Kristi Noem as Department of Homeland Security Secretary. In some ways, he's not very different from his predecessor. Mullin also smeared Renee Good and Alex Pretti following their killings by federal immigration officials in Minnesota. He endorses the President's debunked theory that the 2020 election was stolen. And he threatened to fight the head of the Teamsters union back in 2023 during a Senate committee hearing over a Twitter spat. Burgess Everett, Congressional bureau chief at Semafor, joins the show to talk more about Senator Mullin, the DHS shutdown, and what else to watch for on the Hill this week.And in headlines, FBI Director Kash Patel and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard testify before Congress about global security threats, thousands of workers go on strike at a Colorado meatpacking plant, and Trump continues to insist the war with Iran will wrap up “soon.”Show Notes: Check out Burgess reporting – www.semafor.com/author/burgess-everett Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
Markwayne Mullin has been appointed as the new Homeland Security Secretary. KCSB's Charlie Lapetina has the story.
About 83% of Americans, including roughly 71% of Democrats, support requiring photo ID to vote, per Pew Research—making it one of the most popular provisions in the GOP’s SAVE America Act. However, Democrats say the broader legislation—including proof-of-citizenship requirements—amounts to modern voter suppression and liken it to Jim Crow laws. President Trump has nominated Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Oklahoma), a former MMA fighter with a reputation as a hardliner on immigration, to serve as his next Homeland Security Secretary, replacing Kristi Noem. Mullin’s confirmation hearing is set for March 18, where both allies and critics will closely scrutinize his record on border enforcement, disaster response, and the ongoing DHS shutdown.

A 300-page report details the history and ongoing implications of Michigan's role in the Indian Boarding School era. It includes dozens of interviews, public records, and a list of recommendations for state officials going forward. It details troubling accounts that have become familiar in the discussion about boarding schools — physical and sexual abuse of Native American students, oppressive methods to enforce assimilation, and limited accountability for anyone involved. But the state's Department of Civil Rights is backing away from the report. After investing almost $1 million, the state is declining to release the final document to the public. It has since been posted online by the news site Bridge Michigan. We'll talk to those involved about what is in the report and what it means that the state is not backing it. Sen. Markwayne Mullin (Photo: by the U.S. Senate) We'll also get perspective on the appointment of U.S. Sen. Markwayne Mullin (Cherokee/R-OK) as the Secretary of Homeland Security. We'll hear from people who know and are familiar with his work as a longtime elected leader in Oklahoma. GUESTS April Lindala (Mohawk and Delaware), department head for Native American Studies at Northern Michigan University Jo Ann Kauffman (Nez Perce), founder of Kauffman and Associates Wes Nofire (Cherokee), former Oklahoma Native American Liaison, former Cherokee Nation council member, and former professional athlete Allen Wright (Choctaw), president and founder of the Hustings Group Ron French, senior writer at Bridge Michigan Here’s more from our interview with Allen Wright (Choctaw). Wright describes the high-level of scrutiny Sen. Mullin faces with his nomination for Department of Homeland Security Secretary. https://nativeamericacalling-offload-media.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/031126-Allen-Wright-Pre-Record-web.mp3
Tonight's It's News to Us episode is basically the geopolitical equivalent of watching several car crashes happen at the same intersection while someone in the control tower yells, “We'll figure it out later.” The show opens with the Middle East crisis escalating, as U.S. military leaders reportedly grow uneasy about political allies framing a potential conflict with Iran as biblical “Armageddon.” Meanwhile, Trump tells Americans they might want to “worry” about possible Iranian retaliation, and in a required letter to Congress admits the administration doesn't know how long a war with Iran could last — which is not usually the confidence-inspiring messaging strategy during international conflict. Back home, the chaos continues: A Republican senator is accused of breaking a Marine's hand during a protest over LGBTQ military policy, creating a surreal moment where the “support the troops” crowd may have literally injured one. Then in Washington's ongoing reality-show cabinet shuffle, Kristi Noem is fired as Homeland Security Secretary, continuing the administration's tradition of treating cabinet positions like contestants on The Apprentice: Federal Government Edition. The economic debate heats up as Bernie Sanders and Ro Khanna propose a billionaire tax that would send $3,000 checks to Americans, reviving the national pastime of arguing over whether mailing money to everyone is brilliant policy or just economic DoorDash. Meanwhile in politics, Texas Democrat James Talarico wins his party's Senate nomination, setting up a long-shot but high-energy challenge in a state that hasn't elected a Democratic senator in over 30 years. The episode also dives into rising political violence, after an explosive device was found outside the home of a New York lawmaker — a chilling reminder that American politics is increasingly drifting from heated debates into actual security threats. And in the lighter chaos portion of the show: • Shots fired at Rihanna's Beverly Hills home while she was inside with her kids. • Jack White pokes the Swiftie hornet's nest by criticizing breakup-song pop culture. • Jamie Lee Curtis blasts Hollywood's ageism problem. • CBS launches a nationwide Survivor scavenger hunt. • And Conan O'Brien returns to host the Oscars, because apparently the Academy finally discovered audiences enjoy hosts who are actually funny. In other words: geopolitical brinkmanship, cabinet firings, billionaires, bomb squads, pop-culture feuds, and immunity idols hidden across America.

President Trump formally transmitted Markwayne Mullin's nomination to be Homeland Security Secretary to the Senate yesterday. Last week, Trump announced he would have Mullin, the junior Senator from Oklahoma replace Kristi Noem, who's expected to step down as Secretary at the end of this month.

Today, John talks about the firing of Department of Homeland Security Secretary, Kristi Noem.
Trump launched a war with Iran because Israel wanted him to. Republicans won't even call it a war. Trump keeps calling it a war. An Iranian girls' elementary school was massacred during the opening U.S. strike. Oil prices are spiking. And for the first time in polling history, more Americans sympathize with Palestinians than Israelis. This is the dumbest war in US history.Meanwhile: The House Oversight Committee just subpoenaed Attorney General Pam Bondi over the disappearing Epstein files. Kristi Noem gets fired from Homeland Security for the most Trumpian reason imaginable. And the chaos continues.**THE IRAN WAR**The United States attacked Iran not because Iran posed a threat to America, but because Israel wanted us to. Secretary of State Marco Rubio essentially admitted this, framing the strikes as necessary to prevent Israel from attacking Iran alone claiming the U.S. would be hit in retaliation. We launched military strikes on a sovereign nation because we agree with Israel's shortsighted and brutal logic. Republicans are performing gymnastics to avoid calling this a "war" — except Trump, who keeps saying it out loud, forcing GOP leadership to walk it back.The consequences: An Iranian elementary school was hit in what medics call a "double-tap strike" — first strike hits the building, second strike targets first responders. Young girls were killed. Oil prices are spiking, and public opinion has shifted: for the first time ever, more Americans sympathize with Palestinians than Israelis.**EPSTEIN FILES SUBPOENA**House Oversight, led by Nancy Mace, subpoenaed Attorney General Pam Bondi demanding answers about disappearing Epstein files. FBI interviews with Trump accusers? Scrubbed. Bill Clinton and Hillary's closed-door testimonies? Suddenly made public. The DOJ is unraveling at break neck speed to cover for Donald Trump. Will Bondi comply or defy Congress?**KRISTI NOEM GETTING FIRED**Kristi Noem was fired as Homeland Security Secretary — not for incompetence, but because Trump perceived disloyalty. She shot her dog to prove toughness. She debased herself publicly. Still not loyal enough. With Trump, it's always about ego.**ALSO THIS WEEK:**Texas primaries showed a new voter suppression tactic — polling place closures in Democratic areas, weaponized ID requirements, hours-long lines.A Montana GOP senator broke a Marine veteran's hand while he was protesting during a Senate hearing.DOJ shelved the Biden autopen probe when politically convenient because they completely lacked any evidence, same as it ever was.Trump admin debating letting Tencent keep gaming stakes — the same "national security" argument used for TikTok. A truly terrible precedent if allowed to stand.Steve Daines manipulated filing deadlines in Montana to make it harder for Democratic challengers.From the dumbest war in US history to Epstein cover-ups to cabinet chaos to voter suppression — the dysfunction is accelerating.We break it all down.#Iran #Trump #KristinoemLook Forward is a weekly progressive political podcast covering U.S. politics, government policy, Democratic strategy, elections, voting rights, Supreme Court rulings, and political news.
