Trump vows comeback as bitter showdown with Congress looms

Donald Trump vowed to make a political comeback after Republicans lost control of Congress in midterm elections. The Democrats, now in control of Congress, have threatened to investigate Trump, his family, and senior administration officials. Incoming Democratic leaders have promised to hold Trump and his aides accountable, while Trump has vowed to defend them.

Trump appointed Stephen Miller, a hardline advisor, as his new chief of staff, signaling a fightback against the Democrats. However, some Republicans have expressed disappointment over their poor performance at the polls, attributing it to Trump's tough immigration policies. Democrats plan to examine Trump's business dealings, cryptocurrency dealings, government contracts, and the Iran war.

Hakeem Jeffries, who will become the new Speaker of the House, has vowed to support a resolution to remove Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, accusing him of abusing his power and undermining national security. Trump defended Hegseth during a press conference, praising his war record. Attorney General Todd Blanche vowed to defend Trump and his aides, while Democratic lawmakers vowed to hold Trump and his cabinet accountable.
