The new Speaker of the House made some important concessions to gain his new position. The House Freedom Caucus wielded some impressive power to attempt to move government (or at least the House) back to the way it used to work, prevent the swampy status quo, and get back to the way many Conservatives think it should work. What were those concessions, what are the ramifications, and what are the most important ones? Deb and Bill discuss all this in this special follow-up Episode 15b.
