MarkWayne "Hillbilly Is Right There In His First Name" Mullins is her replacement.
My money was on Kid Rock.
Not a bad bet, not gonna lie.
Why do I recognize that name? And why does it conjure a vague feeling of rage and disgust?
He's on the political talk shows all the time. Big MAGA loudmouth.
Another comment on this thread reminded me what it was I recognized his name from. It was that time he tried to fight somebody during congress
Red Skull is too competent for the job.
If Red Skull were a fucking moron
IKR? Putting the cheek fillers/fat removal aside, why can’t plastic surgery improve necks or hands? Honest question.
To your point, the android face makes her neck look that much more gross.
I know that's below the belt, but that's where Noem spends all her time anyway.
Did they finally figure out a way to resurrect the broken corpse of Hitler with AI?
It’s like AI Scott Adams

To be clear, inbred poster boy, Markwayne Mullin, will almost certainly be worse than Noem.
-
Mullin tried to physically fight someone during an official proceeding until Bernie Sanders yelled at him to sit down and behave like a member of Congress.
-
Mullin tried ripping the "Black People Are Not Apes" sign out of Al Green's hand during the State of the Union.
-
There are pictures of Mullin cowering in fear during Jan 6, after helping incite it.
-
There are pictures of Mullin standing on a box behind a podium to match the height of his debate opponent.
He is an inbred and a coward with a chip on his shoulder. Expect more Constitutional violations.
Well my low expectations have been met. I didn't think Trump was going to pick a mature competent adult
People give Texas a lot of shit and rightly so, but Oklahoma produces quite a cesspool of bitter, self-righteous fuckwits who really believe they know and have the right of things.
That was the asshole that tried to rip that sign. What a fucking piece of crap. And he's a race trader He's an American Indian.
What kind of fucked up brain do you have to have to be racist?
Replacing scat with shit.
This is why I really want to celebrate this, however I know in my bones there’s nothing to celebrate.
Damn, I would not want to be a puppy in South Dakota right now
How can he be both President and Secretary of whatever specific bullshit this is?
I think it means that Trump is replacing her with someone else, not that he's taking both positions. I was confused at first too.
From the article:
President Donald Trump says he's replacing his embattled Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and will nominate in her place Oklahoma Republican Sen. Markwayne Mullin.
The headline is just really stupidly worded.
It's certainly some light title gore.
It certainly is not, unless you also think "I'm going to make you a pie" is me literally threatening to turn you into a pastry.
Agentive interpretation, not anticausative.
If only there were some way to make the title less arbitrary.
It's not arbitrary - it's ambiguous. Context clues, world knowledge, and the entire attached article are more than enough to resolve the ambiguity.
All natural human languages show structural ambiguity like this, especially when it comes to headlines which famously favor brevity over clarity, and the built in feature of human language to solve it is pragmatics.

Time to show Talibondi Barbie the door next.
Won't fix the historic mess of an administration, but it's a start.
but it’s a start.
Nah. Markwayne Mullin will be worse. But he'll be instructed to chill out until after the midterms since the traitor party is scared it'll be a bloodbath for them if they can't do something about public perception.
They'll point to how Republicans are the party that removes unpopular and incompetent leadership. And it'll work.
I read that as trump taking over as homeland security secretary. I was suprised but I believed it
So they're replacing a sycophant with another sycophant nepobaby with SDE.
