BREAKING: House Republicans defeat effort to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth
WASHINGTON — After a blue tidal wave swept them from power, House Republicans elected a new GOP leader Tuesday to replace outgoing Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan of Ohio, defeated Majority Leader Steve Scalise of Louisiana, a close Johnson ally, for minority leader, two Republican lawmakers said. The vote was held by secret ballot behind closed doors.
The vote was 106-73, the two lawmakers in the room said.
“Over the next two years, House Republicans will fight for American families,” Jordan told reporters after his victory. “When Democrats offer more government, we’ll offer more freedom, and we will bring that fight in committee, on the floor and on the stump every single day.”

Rep. Jim Jordan, Sen. John Thune elected GOP leaders in Congress
Republican lawmakers on Tuesday picked Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio and Sen. John Thune of South Dakota to serve as their respective House and Senate minority leaders in the next Congress.
Jordan, the House Judiciary Committee chairman, was elected in a 106-73 vote, sources told MS NOW on condition of anonymity to discuss the private meeting. He beat Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., the current House majority leader.
A two-decade House veteran and committed supporter of President Donald Trump, Jordan will take on the leadership role just as Republicans relinquish power, following blowout Democratic victories in last week's midterm election.
House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., announced the day after Election Day that he would not run for minority leader in the 120th Congress.
