Power shifts in Washington continued as new party leadership began to take shape. In the House, the GOP picked Jim Jordan to be their new leader and Senate Republicans re-elected John Thune. The House also voted to quash an effort to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Lisa Desjardins reports.
Newsweek didn’t include a summary, so this is PBS News’s, from its report on the same story.3
