Four New Zealand politicians have been barred from entering China for a year after they visited Taiwan last September, but China's embassy says the ban could be reduced or lifted if the MPs apologise. The four MP's facing the sanction are Maureen Pugh, David Wilson, Laura McClure, and Labour's Duncan Webb. Speaker of the House Gerry Brownlee told Andrew Dickens, "I think it's disappointing because we have a very different political system to their own and MPs in New Zealand can make their own decisions about these sort of invitations that come periodically."

Send us a textMinnesota State House Representative Rick Hansen was first elected to represent South St. Paul in the Minnesota State House in 2004 along with his colleague Melissa Hortman who represented northern Minneapolis and went on to serve as Speaker of the Minnesota House for 6 years. On June 14, 2025, Melissa and her husband Mark were assassinated when they opened their front door to a man impersonating a police officer. The man had come from Minnesota State Senator John Hoffman's home where he had shot Senator Hoffman and his wife multiple times; their daughter called 911 and saved her parents. The assassin had a list of lawmakers to assassinate, and our guest was on that list. We discuss his experience and his thoughts about the future.

In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Tennessee Speaker of the House Cameron Sexton to discuss how his state is leading the way on education freedom and fiscal responsibility.

He also highlights how competition is driving public schools to improve while ensuring every student has the chance to succeed, no matter their zip code. The conversation doesn't stop with education. Speaker Sexton also pulls back the curtain on how Tennessee is saving taxpayers money by cutting waste, paying down debt, and pushing back against the strings that come attached to federal funding. From rejecting costly mandates to insisting on greater oversight of grant dollars, Sexton outlines a common-sense approach to governing that keeps taxes low and opportunities high. His story shows what principled leadership can accomplish when freedom and accountability come first.

In this conversation, former Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy discusses the current state of the Democratic Party, the challenges faced by President Biden, and the impact of Donald Trump on American politics. He emphasizes the need for authenticity in political leadership and critiques the Democratic Party's approach to candidate selection. McCarthy also reflects on Trump's governance style and the controversies surrounding his administration, advocating for a more strategic and principled approach to politics. McCarthy also discusses various themes including leadership during crises, the transformation of the Republican Party under Trump, ethics in Congress, his personal journey in politics, healthcare and economic policies, America's future challenges, and historical parallels to current events. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the complexities of leadership and the need for accountability, while also expressing optimism about America's potential and the significance of its foundational ideas. Takeaways The Democrats are currently lost and need to reevaluate their strategies. Trump has significantly shifted the Republican base, especially among Hispanic voters. Kamala Harris's nomination was a strategic misstep for the Democrats. The outcome of the last election hinged on key states like Pennsylvania. Democrats should stop pre-selecting candidates and allow grassroots movements to emerge. Authenticity is crucial for political leaders to connect with voters. Voters are frustrated with the failure of political parties to solve problems. Trump's approach resonates with those who feel ignored by the political establishment. Boeing's handling of the presidential plane situation reflects larger issues in governance. Political leaders must understand the importance of negotiation and setting the right expectations. The role of leadership is crucial in crisis management. Trump's approach has transformed the Republican Party's identity. Ethics and accountability are vital in political leadership. Personal experiences shape political aspirations and decisions. Healthcare policies must consider work requirements for Medicaid. Economic policies should focus on middle-income benefits. America's identity is rooted in its foundational ideas. Democracy can be messy but is essential for progress. Historical lessons can inform current political strategies. Unanswered aggression can lead to further conflict. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Being the Republican House leader is a little like marrying Henry VIII. At some point, you're getting your head cut off. But for now, Mike Johnson remains not just physically intact—but in a position of incredible power. Two weeks ago, Johnson was reelected Speaker of the House on the first ballot. Despite having only the narrowest of House majorities—the Republicans control the House by four votes, 219 vs. 215 Democrats—Mike Johnson was able to unite the Republican Party's warring factions—moderates, the Freedom Caucus, the Raw Milk caucus, libertarians, hawks, doves, and whatever Lauren Boebert is—behind him. It was tough to pull off, as it would've taken only a couple of No votes to send him off to that Republican Valhalla where John Boehner chain-smokes and chugs merlot, Paul Ryan does push-ups, and Kevin McCarthy throws darts at a photo of Matt Gaetz. Now, Donald Trump will become president of the United States and Mike Johnson will have the task of shepherding his agenda through Congress. And because the Republicans control the House by only four seats, the Speaker might have to get very close to some moderate Democrats—particularly those with constituents itching for a tax cut. Today on Honestly, Speaker Johnson breaks down this challenge. He talks about how the party moves forward with two different visions for America; why he thinks Biden was “the worst president ever”; he recalls an eerie experience with Biden in the Oval Office; and he even gives us a taste of his uncanny Trump impression.
