0:39Now PlayingThe Republican chairman overseeing hearings on Senator Markwayne Mullin’s nomination to lead the Department of Homeland Security challenged the Oklahoma Republican on whether his “anger issues” disqualified him from leading an agency enmeshed in controversy over aggressive tactics. #worldnews #politics #trump #usa
Kentucky Senator Rand Paul scolded Mullin at a confirmation hearing Wednesday for publicly applauding a neighbor’s assault on Paul that put him in the hospital and for “brawling” at another Senate hearing. He later said he’d oppose confirming Mullin though that likely won’t block the nomination.
Paul appeared during the hearing to be referring to an incident in which Mullin, a former mixed martial arts fighter, challenged Sean O’Brien, general president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, to a fight during 2023 Senate hearing. Mullin brought O’Brien to the hearing.
