YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

After being under strong pressure from conservatives in Congress to push for tighter government spending, House Speaker John Boehner announced his resignation this week. Dan Balz of The Washington Post describes the “great disarray” facing House Republicans in upcoming months and whether a change in leadership will affect Congress’ relationship with the White House. As he continued his tour around the U.S., Pope Francis came to Washington to address Congress on controversial issues including immigration and climate change. NPR’s Tom Gjeten details the Pope’s strong messages on humanity and unifying the country. After hosting Pope Francis, President Obama met with Chinese President Xi Jinping to discuss issues of human rights and cyber security. Alexis Simendinger of Real Clear Politics reports on what issues are left open-ended between the two leaders. Plus, a wrap-up of this week on the 2016 campaign trail.
