Republicans Secure House Majority, Bolstering Trump's Agenda

TL;DR Summary
Republicans have secured a majority in the US House of Representatives, completing a governing trifecta with control of the White House and Senate, which could enable Donald Trump to advance his legislative agenda. Despite a narrow majority, Republicans plan to maximize their influence, with House Speaker Mike Johnson expressing confidence in their ability to legislate effectively. Trump's cabinet picks, including Matt Gaetz as attorney general, have sparked controversy, but Johnson remains optimistic about the party's prospects. Democrats, while unable to flip the House, highlighted their gains in New York as a positive outcome.
