Summary

After House Republicans were able to elect new Speaker Mike Johnson, they're now working to ensure they can not only maintain their majority in the House — but grow it. With many vulnerable Democratic seats that could be for the taking, the priority is now gathering sufficient funds for competitive House races and fixing the issues that are still plaguing Americans across the country. On the Rundown, Republican National Congressional Committee Chairman Richard Hudson (NC-09) explains why he's confident in Speaker Mike Johnson's fundraising capabilities after the House saw their "best fundraising week of the year" under his leadership. He also discusses which seats he believes Republicans could win in 2024 and the problems he's working to fix that weigh heavy on his constituents in North Carolina. Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, is being sued by nearly all individual states. Different social media companies have been accused of stealing user data to contribute to mental illness among America's youth. Forty-one states and Washington D.C. are accusing Meta of using "manipulative features" and "misleading the public," resulting in children becoming intentionally addicted to social media. Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares joins to break down why infinite scrolling is "behavioral cocaine" and explain how social media companies ignore harmful material. Plus, commentary by author and Vice President of Communications for Focus on The Family, Paul Batura. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
