Markwayne Mullin was sworn in Tuesday as secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, replacing Kristi Noem, who was ousted earlier this month. Mullin has served as senator for Oklahoma since 2023 following a decade in the House of Representatives. He joins the Trump administration amid a partial government shutdown, with Democrats demanding reforms to immigration enforcement before fully funding DHS.
"This agency of terror needs to be dismantled," says Congressmember Delia Ramirez of Illinois. "And whether it is Mullin, whether it is Noem, whether it's Tom Homan, that agency is dangerous, and every American should say, 'Enough is enough.'"
Ramirez also comments on the birthright citizenship case before the Supreme Court, the U.S. fuel blockade against Cuba and more.
