By handing over control of both houses of Congress—the House and the Senate—to the Democrats, Americans have repudiated the Republican Party and more specificallly, Donald Trump’s policies.
Trump and the Republicans resorted to crude racist and Islamophobic propaganda to tarnish Muslim, Black and Latino candidates.
Americans, however, were more concerned about the 2Gs and 1D.
Grocery and gas prices (2Gs) and the inoxerable eruption of data centres (D) in corn fields across America have people more worried.
All of these can be traced to the unpopular, and illegal war that Trump and Netanyahu unleashed against Islamic Iran.
Closure of the Strait of Hormuz by Iran has resulted in high gas and diesel costs.
These in turn have led to higher grocery prices and rents.
Most Americans are quite quite ill-informed but they can still see that they are worse off today than when Trump took office in January 2025.
Their dumbing down is deliberate.
Before discussing the implications of the Republicans’ electoral debacle, let us consider some of the results of the November 3 midterm elections.
There are a number of firsts.
Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan became the first Muslim to be elected senator.
He defeated not only the zionist lobby’s war chest but also racist and Islamphobic attacks.
He was branded a “jihadist” and “supporter of terrorism” because he is critical of Israel’s genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.
His other sin was that he wants US tax dollars to be spent on providing healthcare to all Americans and lowering their grocery bills rather than spending money on illegal wars.
He was especially critical of handouts to the parasitical zionist entity.
He even faced the betrayal of Haley (‘I see Israel in my dreams’) Stevens who backed El Sayed’s Republican rival Mike Rogers.
The Republican candidate had two Israeli agents on his campaign staff.
In zionist occupied America that, however, is normal.
Impressive as El Sayed’s victory is, there are other firsts that we must not overlook.
Georgia elected its first Black female governor Keisha Lance Bottoms, who had in the past served as mayor of Atlanta.
More good news came from Texas and Florida.
Gina Hinojosa was elected the first Hispanic governor of Texas.
She ousted the incumbent Greg Abbot, a racist and bigot and an Islamophobe.
Byron Donalds became the first Black governors of Florida.
If liberal California electing Xavier Becerra, a Hispanic, as governor is not surprising, Ohio electing Amy Acton as the first female governor, certainly is.
She beat Republican billionaire biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy.
Unlike El Sayed’s Muslim faith, Ramaswamy’s Hindu faith was never mentioned in the campaign.
Acton’s win is even more impressive because her opponent had made a failed bid for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024 and had greater visibility.
Further, Ohio is vice president JD Vance’s home state.
In Wisconsin, David Crowley became the first black governor.
The pride of place, however, must go to Deb Haaland, the first female Native American to become governor of New Mexico.
Also joining her is Democrat Peggy Flanagan, who becomes the first Native American to become senator from Minnesota.
In Maine, Republican Susan Collins’ 30-year reign as senator ended with the blue tsunami.
Kansas elected its first Democratic senator, Adam Hamilton, since 1932.
What are the implications of the Republicans’ loss of both houses of congress?
Theoretically, congress can block Trump’s warmongering by refusing to authorize funds.
Will it do so, is the big question.
There is a possibility that the House of Representatives might launch impeachment proceedings against Trump for fraud that he and his family are involved in.
Demands for the release of Epstein files might also grow louder.
Even if Congress were to act on all these, Trump still has enormous executive powers as president to thwart the Democrats’ moves.
What is more likely is that Democrats in Congress will make a lot of noise but there will be little practical action on these issues.
And stopping funding or sending arms to the zionist entity will certainly not be on the agenda.
Apart from a few House members and senators, the vast majority support the genocidal entity.
