House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Republican from Louisiana, stated on Tuesday that there will be a peaceful transfer of power when new members join the House next year, according to The Hill.

Johnson expressed confidence that the Republican Party will retain the majority in the House following the upcoming elections.

He emphasized that while the transfer of power will be peaceful, it will not involve a change in which party controls the House.

The comments come amid ongoing discussions about the political landscape and control of the House of Representatives.

What we're watching is how the election results will ultimately shape the balance of power in the House and whether Johnson's prediction holds true.
