In this video Heimler takes you through Unit 2 Topic 2 (2.2) of the AP Government curriculum, which is all about the structures, powers, and functions of Congress.
First, we look at the leadership structures in the House and the Senate. In the House we have the Speaker of the House, the majority and minority leaders, and the majority and minority whips. In the Senate, we have the President of the Senate (i.e., the Vice President of the United States), the president pro tempore, and the majority and minority leaders.
Additionally, we have a look at how the actual work of Congress gets done, which is to say, in committees. We look at the four different kinds of committees (standing committee, joint committee, conference committee, and select committee) and examples of each from the House and the Senate.

In this video Heimler walks you through what you need to know about Congress for the AP Government curriculum. Congress is split into two houses, known as a bicameral legislature: the Senate and the House of Representatives. Both houses get the powers from the Constitution, specifically Article I Section 8.
The powers explicitly listed in the Constitution are known as enumerated powers while the implicit powers are derived from the necessary and proper clause (elastic clause).
The main work of the Senate and the House is to pass legislation and each house has different rules for exactly how that's done, which are determined by the size and norms of each.

In this video Heimler walks you through Unit 4 Topic 10 of the AP Government curriculum which is all about how conservative, liberal, and libertarian ideologies relate to social issues like poverty, education, gender, abortion, etc.
Conservatives tend to want less government involvement in decisions about gun ownership, for example, but more involvement in questions of marriage and family. Liberals tend to want less government involvement in questions of personal privacy (i.e., abortion and gender), but want more involvement in issues of poverty. Libertarians are the most consistent arguing that the least government intervention in all social issues is the best amount of government involvement.
