Can Democrats stop Iran war, reverse Trump’s tariffs after midterms win?
Al Jazeera examines whether the Democratic-controlled Congress that emerges from the 2026 midterms can rein in Trump's war on Iran — through a 11 December funding deadline and the War Powers Resolution — and reverse his tariffs, with analysts doubting either, since vetoes need two-thirds supermajorities and tariff policy may wait until 2028. It adds that Democrats' committee chairmanships could bring investigations of the administration's deportations, Trump's businesses, and the war.
