As Twitchy reported earlier, President Donald Trump has reassigned Kristi Noem and nominated Sen. Markwayne Mullin to replace her as Secretary of Homeland Security. Plenty of liberals are posting a photo of Mullin crouching behind a row of chairs during the January 6 riot at the Capitol; in response, conservatives are posting photos of TDS-afflicted Rep. Jason Crow crouching behind a row of chairs on January 6.
But what else do we know about Mullin, besides the fact that he represents Oklahoma in the Senate? Kyle Griffin, an executive producer at MS NOW, notes that Mullin is the only currently serving senator without at least a bachelor's degree.
Markwayne Mullin looks to be the only currently serving senator without at least a bachelor's degree. https://t.co/V5huZVOILj

You say that like it’s a bad thing

And yet, he's much more accomplished than you are.

Yes, Markwayne Mullin is the only Senator without a Bachelor's Degree because at age 20, he took over his father's plumbing company when he became ill and built it into a multi-million dollar business.

Having a college degree doesn't automatically make you a smart or successful… https://t.co/KlNc73mRyN

Nobody cares.

No one cares. You have one yet he’s the U.S. Senator.

What does that say?
Education didn't help you. Thanks for proving it daily.

Now that's a selling point.

Best endorsement ever

I’m already sold. You don’t have to sweeten it.

He obviously didn't need one.

And was an extremely successful businessman without one... which puts their necessity firmly into question.

If education is an indicator of how well someone will do as HS Sec, what’s the excuse for Mayorkas and his shiny Loyola U. Juris Doctorate? pic.twitter.com/IVMU3pdWdY

I’m so not sorry this is happening to you.
— Matrix Forest (@MatrixForest) March 5, 2026
Thank God. Maybe we can get some common sense going.

He's also worth $30+ million dollars from businesses he built himself. What have you done?
— Matt Schuck (@MattSchuckDC) March 5, 2026
Maybe there’s something to that, considering universities have pushed woke and DEI agenda for the last couple decades.

Mullin was not programmed by American universities.
Indescribably red-pilled and based.
— DET (@goodboisweeneys) March 5, 2026
So... he's smart, successful, strong AND unindoctrinated by the Marxist professors in our universities.
— Adyana (@adyanalistens) March 5, 2026
Okay then. I like him even more now. Thanks for letting us know.
File this under "useless trivia."
