President-elect Donald Trump nominated South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem for DHS Secretary on November 12, 2024, with no announcement naming Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) to the post despite prior speculation. Mullin, a Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee member, continues legislative duties without indications of resignation or transition involvement. Republicans' 53-47 Senate majority positions confirmed nominees for favorable Senate confirmation hearings, expected post-January 20 inauguration following committee reviews and floor votes. Absent a nomination shift—unlikely given Trump's accelerated cabinet selections and historical precedent for locked-in picks—traders view Mullin's path as blocked by procedural and political realities, including Noem's ongoing vetting amid past personal allegations.

If Markwayne Mullin is formally nominated for the role, and his nomination is then formally withdrawn, or if the Senate rejects the nomination, this market will immediately resolve to “No”.
The Senate must confirm Markwayne Mullin as Secretary of Homeland Security for this market to resolve to "Yes". Recess appointments or assumption of the position in an acting capacity without Senate confirmation will not count toward a "Yes" resolution.
The primary resolution source for this market is official information from the U.S. Senate; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
