Mullin Admits Threatening Teenager Amidst DHS Confirmation Fallout
Newly surfaced footage has reignited scrutiny over the temperament of former MMA fighter Markwayne Mullin, the new Secretary of Homeland Security, following a resurfaced video where he threatened to drag a teenager’s face over asphalt. Mullin made these comments to a church group espousing a mission for evangelical Christians to take over government as divinely anointed “elders.” This incident follows a contentious Senate confirmation hearing where Mullin faced accusations of applauding violence and promoting fighting, raising concerns about his suitability for a leadership role overseeing border patrol and ICE agents. His ties to the “City Elders” group and espoused Christian Nationalist views have further fueled anxieties that his personal beliefs may improperly shape his administration of the Department of Homeland Security.
