Trump's Shift on DHS Funding, Mullin's Confirmation
About this episode
Senate Republicans see a potential shift in President Trumps stance on DHS funding, with a possible deal on the horizon. The plan involves splitting enforcement money to gain Democratic votes, with extra ICE funds to be added later. Trumps own actions, including casting a mail-in ballot, add irony to his stance on mail-in voting restrictions. Meanwhile, Markwayne Mullin is confirmed as the new Homeland Security secretary, and the Supreme Court takes up Trumps authority to limit asylum claims. Funding deadlines loom large for border security.

On March 24, Senate Republicans now think President Donald Trump might be open to a funding deal for the Department of Homeland Security after a White House meeting Monday night. This marks a possible change from his earlier stance of no talks without progress on the Save America Act. Lawmakers say he could accept a package that doesn't fully cover immigration and customs enforcement right away. The plan would split some enforcement money to gain Democratic votes, with Republicans pushing extra immigration and customs enforcement funds later, through budget reconciliation. They also aim to include parts of the Save America Act in a future bill. One insider noted they convinced him to run this parallel process to get things moving now. Trump's own actions at irony, as he cast a mail-in ballot in a recent Palm Beach County special election, despite championing restrictions on mail-in, voting through his Save America Act. Meanwhile, former strategist Steve Bannon called immigration and customs enforcement agents
at airports, a test run for placing them at polling. Stations come midterms. Experts tracking democracy say the nation's health has stabilized at a lower level since Trump's return. The Senate just confirmed Mark Wayne Mullin as the new Homeland Security Secretary and a 54-45-party line vote, putting him at the forefront of the immigration push. Executive State Marco Rubio heads to a group of seven meeting in France, Friday, to discuss Ukraine and Middle East tensions after U.S. strikes on. Iran. On the legal front, the Supreme Court takes up Trump's authority to limit asylum claims at the border this week, while democracy watchers note, partisan divides and public views amid these shifts. As these talks unfold, funding deadlines loom large for border security.
