We now have a Speaker of the House of Representatives—Louisiana Republican Mike Johnson— who most of America doesn't know, but finally got the entire Republican caucus to vote for him. For some insight into how Johnson might govern, Johanna Maska spoke with Denver Riggleman, a Former Congressman from Virginia's 5th congressional district, who served with him and knows him well. They talk about the divisions in America, some within our families, what to expect from Speaker Mike Johnson, and what to expect in Virginia’s upcoming elections.
