President Donald Trump earlier acknowledged the Iran war was a factor but stood defiant on his decision to launch the attacks.
OriginalVice President JD Vance publicly broke from President Donald Trump’s defense of the Iran war in the wake of the Republican Party’s deep losses in the midterm elections.
OriginalDemocrats have won control of Congress in a widespread repudiation of President Donald Trump and the Republican Party. Democrats have flipped at least seven Senate seats in ruby-red states and battlegrounds alike: Kansas, Iowa, Texas, Ohio, Maine, North Carolina and South Carolina. In the House, Democrats flipped more than two dozen districts, some that voted for Trump by double digits in 2024. House Speaker Mike Johnson will not seek election as House Republican leader following the Democrats’ win. Trump faces a profoundly reshaped Washington for the last two years of his presidency. Democrats will have the power to block his legislative agenda, reject his appointees and investigate his administration.
