Chris Stigall goes inside the U.S. Capitol for exclusive sit-downs with two of the most powerful House Republicans as the 119th Congress winds down and the 2026 midterms come into view.

House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (MN-06) fires up on the Trump economic boom that’s just getting started, the permanent tax cuts, no tax on tips/overtime, the billion-dollar fraud scandal exploding around Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, and why Republicans are poised to defy history and expand their majority next November.

House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (OH-04) pushes back on anonymous leaks attacking FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Dan Bongino, reveals the choice-vs-subsidy health care fight, and why the left’s “crazy” ideas on borders, crime, men in women’s sports, and Chinese spy balloons will be front-and-center in the campaign.

Straight talk from the men steering the House GOP agenda—no spin, no filter, just the plan to keep and grow the majority.
