We can finally say that Republicans will take the majority in the House of Representatives in January. So what does this mean for foreign policy — especially the new $37 billion package President Biden wants to push through the lame duck session this December? The Washington Examiner’s politics editor Jim Antle joins us to break down how this super-slim majority will actually give an edge to Republicans who have been critical of the aid and in favor of a more restrained foreign policy. He discusses the different flavors of these GOP critics, and how this may be setting up a real fight for who defines a “conservative foreign policy.” In the first segment Kelley & Dan talk (optimistically!) about that big face-to-face between China’s Xi-Jinping and President Biden at the G20.
