About this episode
Republican Mike Johnson won reelection as House speaker, overcoming resistance from a small but pivotal group of conservative hardliners after a flurry of last-minute talks and with the help of a critical endorsement from President-elect Donald Trump. For analysis of the moment Johnson reclaimed the gavel, Bloomberg Businessweek hosts Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec speak with Balance of Power host Joe Mathieu. They also speak with Bloomberg's Tyler Kendall from Capitol Hill and get insight from Bloomberg politics editor Laura Davison. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
