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.

During Noem's appearance before Congress on Tuesday, Senator John Kennedy, among other lawmakers from both sides of the political aisle, pressed Noem about the department's spending of taxpayer dollars, including a $220 million ad contract. The ads, which Noem said were intended to encourage undocumented immigrants to leave the US, included footage of the now-former secretary riding a horse in front of Mount Rushmore while delivering stern messages about border enforcement.

Nobody should be making bets on if the United States is going to war, or what words President Trump is going to use in his speech. Those are fundamentally corrupt markets, because there are people on the inside who know the answer, and it perverts the decision-making process.

In a widely leaked internal memo that Sam Altman sent last Thursday night, a copy of which I obtained, the OpenAI CEO said that he would seek "red lines" to prevent the Pentagon from using OpenAI products for mass domestic surveillance and autonomous lethal weapons. These were ostensibly the very same limits that Anthropic had demanded and that had infuriated the Pentagon, leading Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to declare the company a supply-chain risk.

Hudson Valley families are being suffocated with rising energy costs, because of Governor Hochul's failed and disastrous energy policies. It is time to reverse course. I'm calling for Indian Point to be rebuilt and reopened.

We're going to approach those two toxic individuals with the same intensity that has now led to the termination of Kristi Noem. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries referring to Bondi and Stephen Miller as individuals who must be removed from their positions.

Russia and Iran have been in cahoots for far too long. Russia has relied on Iranian drones in their war against Ukraine. And so, from my vantage point, as you see what is happening, we are decimating Iran's military capabilities. You've seen, very quickly, over seven days, their ability to fire off ballistic missiles has declined precipitously.

Yeah, I couldn't agree with you. I think we have to address the fact that this is not a good report in its raw numbers, but we have also talk about why this possibly has happened, this snapshot in time. It was mentioned, the weather. We saw health care numbers go down.

The president was very excited about Senator Markwayne Mullin moving into this role and being officially part of President Trump's team in the Cabinet. The White House will be working with the Senate to confirm him as quickly as possible. And we thank Secretary Noem for her efforts over the past year.
