Summary

With just a few weeks left before the 119th Congress is sworn in, the 118th Congress still has a few more agenda items. FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram notes that with a slim Republican majority, and major items on the table, it is certainly not "the most wonderful time of the year" on Capitol Hill.   As AI takes the world by storm, political leaders are wary of the political, economic, and social challenges that could come from its widespread usage. We revisit a conversation with President and founder of Eurasia Group, Ian Bremmer discussing the importance of seeking international cooperation on the issue.
