Democrats seize House control in stunning blue tsunami, vow retribution against Trump admin
Democrats have won control of the House of Congress, setting up confrontations with President Donald Trump during his final two years in office.
Democrats have seized the House majority and will control the lower chamber of Congress for the final two years of President Donald Trump's term, according to the Fox News Decision Desk.
