Rep. Markwayne Mullin is seeking to"bring Oklahoma values" to the swamp in a crowded Senate Republican primary, with the race set for June 28.
"My life experience has been quite broad, but it's been business. And if you want to change the way we do things up here, then quit making political decisions and let's start making business decisions," said Mullin, who operated his family plumbing business, was once a professional mixed martial artist, and has repeatedly touted himself as an outsider from Washington politics."I think, really, what we need to do is bring Oklahoma values to D.C.
Speaking on energy, the Oklahoma representative blasted President Joe Biden's handling of soaring gas prices across the country."If Biden really wants to get in this energy crisis, come talk to Oklahoma. We can sell it for him." Last month, Mullin went down to Mar-a-Lago in Florida to speak with the former president about his Senate bid, a person familiar with the matter told the Washington Examiner. The person also noted Trump and Mullin had"favorable conversations," though Trump has held out on endorsing anyone for Inhofe's seat.
“Since the Federal court ruling in the McGirt case, the FBI’s Oklahoma City field office has managed thousands of Indian Country cases, whereas previously the field office investigated approximately 50 criminal cases a year involving Native Americans,” the Justice Department recently told Congress in an annual budget request, asking for additional U.S. attorneys, FBI agents, and federal marshals to aid the region in expectation of a"surge" in nonviolent crimes.
