  "account": "US President Donald Trump has ordered the Justice Department to investigate Democrats for alleged threats. Trump claimed on social media that Democrats were sending threatening letters to many innocent people, which he considered a \"criminal act\", although he provided no evidence. The Democrats had won a significant victory over Trump's Republicans in the midterm elections, gaining control of Congress from January. Nancy Lacore, a Democrat, has won the US House of Representatives seat in South Carolina's 1st congressional district, defeating Republican Jenny Costa Honeycutt.",
