During his latest "My Take," "Varney & Co." host Stuart Varney discusses progressive lawmakers’ influence over the Biden administration, arguing they "run the show" as they offer their support to the president amid his plummeting approval rating.

The left still runs the show. And they'll still be running the show even after a Democrat wipe-out in November.
The "progressives" will be the only ones left!
