Summary
Thanks to the efforts of 20 GOP dissidents, the new Republican Congress is poised to be the most conservative in memory, and they're already notching important wins. So why are Republicans in the Senate so different? Sen. Rick Scott of Florida joins Charlie to discuss his challenge to Mitch McConnell, the omnibus disaster, and what Republicans could learn from running a business. Then, it's back to the House. Byron Donalds tells Charlie about the many accomplishments conservatives can look forward to in the weeks and months to come.
