Jordan Seizes Gop Leadership, Hegseth Slams Impeachment Folly | Just the News

House Republicans elected Jim Jordan as their new minority leader after midterm losses handed Democrats control of both chambers. The Ohio lawmaker defeated Steve Scalise in a secret ballot, positioning a more confrontational style as the party prepares for minority status starting in January.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth blasted the impeachment articles introduced by Rep. Thomas Massie as a political farce driven by personal motives rather than constitutional grounds. The charges center on military operations, and a procedural vote is testing whether the effort advances at all while Republicans still hold the House.

Democrats entering with large majorities are already mapping aggressive oversight of the Trump administration, including potential probes of cabinet officials and policy decisions. Centrist voices warn that overreach on investigations or cultural issues could squander the midterm gains and hand Republicans a path back.

Guests: Rep. Claudia Tenney, Col. Rob Maness, Kentucky AG Russell Coleman.

How should the new GOP leadership fight back against expected Democratic overreach without losing focus on core priorities?
