I guess the WSJ article was correct.
Truth Social

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 we are announcing on Saturday in Doral, Florida. I thank Kristi for her service at “Homeland.”

Breaking News on Fox that Trump announced it on Truth Social.

Dumb question I'm sure.... do we lose a Republican in the senate, or does he cover both positions?

Governor will appoint a replacement until special election.

Wished it would have been the other oklahoma senator. Lankford is worthless.

No special election in Oklahoma. Governor appoints someone from the same party. who stays in office until the next election. The appointee cannot run in the next election.

Fetterman has stated he will vote to confirm Mullin.
A loony Dem proggy is gonna pop him sooner or later.

And Stitt was called out by Trump recently. He better not screw this up because as a rule the replacement has advantages as an incumbent when the special election happens purely by name recognition.
I wonder if Jackson will run, he ran against Cucker Lankford last time. Hard to beat entrenched politicians with purse strings.

In Oklahoma, when a U.S. Senate vacancy occurs, the governor appoints an interim replacement (must be from the same party as the outgoing senator and meet residency/registration rules). A special election is then held to fill the remainder of the term, scheduled to coincide with the next available regularly scheduled statewide primary and general elections.

Hern would be a good pick
Rep. Kevin Hern (R-OK) is set to announce a bid for US Senate in Oklahoma after Trump picks Senator Mullin (R-OK) to replace Noem

That would actually be incredible, he is exactly the kind of person we need.

Who's going to replace him in the Senate?
Posted on 3/5/26 at 2:26 pm to OU Guy
I remember that. He's a bad arse and former MMA fighter. He would have taken the cocky Teamster's guy apart.
ETA. I believe they have since had a civil conversation and patched things up.
