Americans 'made the wrong choice' in midterm elections, Republican House speaker says

US House Speaker Mike Johnson said voters made the wrong choice in last week's midterm elections, which gave Democrats control of Congress. Speaking to reporters at the US Capitol in Washington, Johnson said the next two years could bring political disputes and legislative challenges.

Mike Johnson, US House Speaker said "I'm sorry that the voters made the wrong choice. I really do believe that this next two years is going to be a bit of a circus."

He also opposed efforts to impeach US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, saying cabinet secretaries should not be impeached for political gain.
