[0:00] Big election results create turbulence,
[0:03] bipartisan turbulence. House Republicans
[0:05] reject the old guard. Senate Democrats
[0:07] led by Bernie Sanders split on Chuck
[0:10] Schumer. The House votes on impeaching
[0:13] Defense Secretary Pete Hegathth. High
[0:15] crimes and misdemeanors or political
[0:17] theatrics. We know one thing. President
[0:20] Trump gives Hegsth an A+ plus.
[0:25] She's the most successful chair of the
[0:26] House Democratic Campaign Committee in
[0:28] modern history. Susan Delb Benny on the
[0:30] victory and the mash of expectations
[0:33] that come with it.
[0:43] Hello everyone, I'm Major Garrett in
[0:45] Washington. Let me welcome you to the
[0:47] Takeout. My postelection cold is in

[1:03] Jordan, the first winner from Ohio this
[1:05] entire election cycle. Every other
[1:07] Republican in the Buckeye State, either
[1:09] lost or underperformed.
[1:11] The current House Majority Leader, Steve
[1:13] Steve Scaliz, lost. That's a rebuke of
[1:15] the status quo after the GOP lost,
[1:18] that's the operative word, at least 45
[1:20] seats in this midterm blue zilla. It's
[1:23] worth noting the Democrats lead in five
[1:25] of the 12 House races yet to be called,
[1:28] meaning they could gain, check my notes,
[1:31] as many as 50 seats when all the dust
[1:33] settles. Also, the godfather of the
[1:36] nation's progressive movement, at least
[1:37] in its modern incarnation, Bernie
[1:39] Sanders said today he cannot and will
[1:41] not
