John Fetterman saves Markwayne Mullin’s nomination to lead DHS

Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) crossed party lines to advance his colleague Markwayne Mullin’s nomination to lead the Department of Homeland Security in a nail-biting committee vote Thursday.

Senate Homeland Security Committee Chairman Rand Paul (R-Ky.) voted against reporting Mullin (R-Okla.) to the full Senate, but Fetterman voted in favor of sending the pick to the floor for a final vote.

All 13 other committee members voted along party lines, making the final tally 8-7 in Mullin’s favor.

GOP senator calls for probe into Ketanji Brown Jackson attending Grammys by Ryan Mancini 02/06/26 04:07 PM ET

Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) called for an investigation Thursday into Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson for attending the Grammy Awards, where various artists criticized Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

“Americans deserve a Supreme Court that is impartial and above political influence,” Blackburn wrote on social platform X. “When a Justice participates in such a highly politicized event, it raises ethical questions. We need an investigation into Justice Jackson’s ability to remain impartial.”

Blackburn also sent a letter to Chief Justice John Roberts “to conduct a thorough investigation” into the ethics of Jackson’s attendance at the award show and her “ability to remain impartial with respect to immigration matters that come before the Court.”

Former Republican election official buys Dominion Voting -- a target of 2020 conspiracy theories

Former Republican election official buys Dominion Voting — a target of 2020 conspiracy theories

DENVER -- DENVER (AP) — Voting equipment company Dominion Voting Systems, a target of false conspiracy theories from President Donald Trump and his supporters since the 2020 election, has been bought by a firm run by a former Republican elections official, the new company announced Thursday.

The newly formed company, Liberty Vote, also vowed to follow the executive order Trump signed last spring seeking sweeping changes to election policies that multiple judges have put on hold for violating the Constitution.
The release from the new company vows to reintroduce “hand-marked paper ballots” and adjust company policies to follow Trump's executive order on voting procedures, which is not in effect because judges have ruled that Trump doesn't have the power to mandate them. Part of the president's order sought to prohibit voting equipment that produces a paper record with “a barcode or quick-response code” — equipment that is currently in use in hundreds of counties across 19 states.
