Mullin DHS Confirmation Hearing: Pledges Judicial Warrants for Home Entries, ICE Off 'Front Line'

Sen. Markwayne Mullin testified before the Senate Homeland Security Committee to replace DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, pledging ICE officers would only enter homes with judicial warrants and shifting ICE to primarily transport convicted criminals from local jails. The hearing follows a government shutdown that has frozen DHS funding for over a month amid Democratic opposition to enforcement spending without reforms.
