U.S. Senate approves Markwayne Mullin as next head of Homeland Security
"A former mixed martial arts fighter and collegiate wrestler who has led early-morning workout sessions in the members-only House gym, he became close with members of both parties and is often seen as a negotiator in partisan Washington.
