Democratic Sweep Redraws Political Map
“Balance of Power” focuses on the intersection of politics and global business. On today’s show, Leon Panetta, former Secretary of Defense and White House Chief of Staff, says whether Susie Wiles remains White House Chief of Staff depends on her relationship with President Donald Trump, a relationship Panetta says appears to be good. Kendall Scudder, Texas Democratic Party Chair, says Democrats’ statewide wins in Texas were the result of people working hard over multiple election cycles and rebuilding the party’s infrastructure. Scudder says Elon Musk got a tough message that “Texas is not for sale.”
