  "account": "US voters have handed the Democrats full control of Congress, dealing a significant blow to President Donald Trump's policies. The Democrats have taken control of the House of Representatives and are on track to gain a majority in the Senate, with 54 seats projected. The election was seen as a referendum on Trump's presidency, with voters expressing dissatisfaction with his policies, particularly on the economy and rising prices. The Democrats' gains include historic wins in states such as Kansas, Texas, and Ohio, and they are now poised to lead investigations into Trump's administration and potentially pursue impeachment proceedings.",
  "summary": "Donald Trump's Republicans suffer a devastating defeat in the congressional election. US voters are settling the account with the president's policy, who now faces two tougher years.",
