Senate Confirms Trump Ally Markwayne Mullin to Lead Homeland Security Amidst DHS Turmoil

• Markwayne Mullin confirmed as Homeland Security Secretary, taking over from Kristi Noem amidst public backlash over immigration enforcement.
• Mullin faces immediate challenges including restoring DHS funding, which has lapsed since Feb. 14, causing airport delays.
• Democrats demand changes in immigration enforcement, including officer identification, body cameras, and judicial warrants for home entry.
• Mullin, a close Trump ally, is expected to align with the president's immigration agenda despite some policy adjustments during his hearing.
• He also plans to reform FEMA, rejecting the elimination of the agency and revoking Noem's contract approval rule.
