They are also dead set against his “out-of-control mass deportation campaign and the abusive, violent, cruel tactics personified by ICE (immigration enforcement agency),” Mr. Trump’s immigration enforcers. “In short, Latino voters sent a clear message about their anger and concern about the direction of our country,” Murguia said at a press conference. Several Indian-origin candidates too notched up victories as Democrats made significant gains in the U.S. midterm elections on November 3, 2026, positioning themselves to wrest key Senate seats from Republicans, delivering a stinging rebuke to President Donald Trump. Indian-origin winners in US 2026 midterms: Subramanyam and Dandiya win House seats; Ramaswamy loses Ohio governor race; broader gains for Democrats. Johnson would step aside were correct, his spokesperson responded in a one-word email: “Accurate.” The Louisiana Republican told staff of his decision Wednesday morning, a day after Democrats seized control of both chambers of Congress in a sweeping rejection of Trump’s party and his policies.

Here is how the outcome of the vote, which offers the Democratic Party the power to stymie President Donald Trump’s maverick foreign policy, could impact the thorny relationship between Washington and Beijing: Winning control of both houses in the U.S. Congress puts Democrats in a position to limit Mr. Congress will “take every opportunity to thwart (Mr. Congress will be “less inclined to support measures that would sharply escalate pressure on China if doing so risks raising costs for American consumers and businesses or increasing the likelihood of conflict”, said Patricia Kim, a foreign policy fellow at the Brookings Institution in Washington. But a Democrat-controlled Congress “may force Trump to resume arms sales to Taiwan next year”, Wu said. “If that happens, that will also undermine the stability of U.S.-China relationship.” Alternatively, for China, renewed support of Taipei from the U.S. Congress may be “a stronger incentive for (Beijing) to play it safer with Taiwan”, said Steve Tsang, director of the SOAS China Institute.

Election deniers lose races for governor in key US swing states

After Democrats’ stunning blowout in the United States midterm elections , five Republican election deniers have come up short in their races to become governor in top battleground states. Congressman Andy Biggs in Arizona, Congressman John James in Michigan, State Treasurer Stacy Garrity in Pennsylvania and Congressman Tom Tiffany in Wisconsin all lost their gubernatorial races on Tuesday. So too did billionaire Rick Jackson of Georgia, a state that was central to President Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential results. All five candidates had either cast doubt on or voted to block Joe Biden’s victory over Trump in the 2020 election. Jackson, for instance, had called Biden’s win “totally ridiculous” and criticised Georgia state officials for not complying with Trump’s demands to “find” extra votes. “Our people really let us down,” Jackson said when he was pressed on the 2020 election during a campaign event earlier this year. In January 2021, Biggs and Tiffany voted to overturn the 2020 results as members of the US House of Representatives. Both lawmakers also signed on to a lawsuit that sought to invalidate results in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, all states that Biden won in that year’s contentious presidential race. James was not in Congress when it came time to certify the 2020 election results. He had unsuccessfully run for the US Senate during that election cycle. He also pledged to engage with the Democratic Party, which handily retook control of both chambers of the US Congress. “We’ll, you know, look forward to working with them,” Trump said of the Democrats. “We’ll probably work something out.”
