Get you up to speed: 2026 House midterm election results as Democrats capture majority with major wins
Rep. Robert Garcia of California announced at a news conference that the House Oversight Committee will investigate the Trump family’s business dealings, corporate corruption, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. He named individuals including Stephen Miller, Corey Lewandowski, and Kristi Noem as targets for potential testimony before Congress.
The House Oversight Committee will focus on investigations into the Trump family’s business dealings, corporate corruption, and actions taken by the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Representative Robert Garcia stated that the committee has the authority to issue subpoenas and pursue civil contempt charges in response to non-compliance during investigations.
Rep. Robert Garcia announced that the House Oversight Committee will focus its investigations on various issues, including the Trump family’s business dealings and corporate corruption, while stating that individuals such as Stephen Miller and Corey Lewandowski may be called to testify. In response, White House spokeswoman Lauren Bis expressed that the President is open to collaboration but cautioned that if Democrats engage in what she termed “sham investigations,” they would be acting against the interests of the American people.
What remains unclear — It is uncertain how the House Oversight Committee plans to enforce cooperation from individuals refusing to testify.
Democrats win House majority in 2026 midterm elections
Rep. Robert Garcia of California, who will be the chairman of the House Oversight Committee next Congress, laid out four areas where the panel will focus its investigative efforts.
The overarching investigations include the Trump family’s business dealings, corporate corruption, actions of the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and the Jeffrey Epstein scandal.
“I think folks that need to be concerned first are administration officials that have caused real harm. We’re going to investigate the abuses,” Garcia said at a news conference in his district on Wednesday.
Garcia singled out Stephen Miller, Corey Lewandowski and Kristi Noem, as well as members of the Trump family.
“There’s a lot of folks that need to understand that we are going to ask them to testify in front of the U.S. Congress,” Garcia said.
Garcia acknowledged that the Justice Department under the Trump administration is unlikely to enforce any consequences for those who do not cooperate with the panel’s investigations. But he said that in the majority, Democrats will have the power to sue on behalf of the House.
“And secondly, we have the power of contempt charges. And contempt charges not only go to the DOJ, there’s also a civil contempt process that goes to the courts,” he said.
Asked about the potential for Democrat-led investigations, White House spokeswoman Lauren Bis said: “As the President has said, he’s willing to work with anyone to continue delivering victories for hardworking Americans. If Democrats choose to pursue sham investigations and radical left policies, they are choosing to work against the American people.”

A large police response is currently underway across multiple European countries in relation to the recent bomb threats impacting various passenger flights and media organisations. Investigations are ongoing to determine the origins of these threats, with authorities confirming all affected flights have landed safely.
Sky confirmed receiving a security threat and stated, “We have carried out a security assessment and reported the matter to the relevant authorities.” France’s prime minister’s office announced that bomb dispersal units are conducting inspections and a probe is underway to determine the origin of the threats affecting air traffic across Europe.

‘Sky was one of a number of media organizations that received a security threat.
‘We have carried out a security assessment and reported the matter to the relevant authorities.
‘The safety and security of our colleagues is our primary concern, and we are working closely with authorities to ensure our people and operations remain secure.
‘It would not be appropriate to comment further at this time.”
France said four new bomb threats were made against aircraft flying over its territory on Friday.
All of the planes landed safely and bomb dispersal units are conducting inspections, with a probe underway to determine the origin of the threats affecting all of Europe, the prime minister’s office said.

Police in Denmark and the Czech Republic also investigated threats to air traffic today, while a Romanian plane received a bomb threat.
The Tarom flight from Prague to Bucharest landed at its intended destination, and airport administration officials said the bomb threat proved to be false.
Czech Police wrote on X this morning: ‘Today, the threat to place an improvised explosive device on board a number of aircraft arriving at and departing from Prague is happening again.’
In the Danish capital Copenhagen, police said they were present at the airport for a second consecutive day ‘in connection with threats directed at air traffic’.
They said their immediate assessment was that there had been no danger to passengers or to others at the airport.
The German transport ministry said it is not aware of its airlines or airports being affected.
Earlier, a Ryanair flight from Rome to Lisbon (FR8196) was the subject of a bomb threat.
Portuguese police later confirmed no device was found on board.
Within the past hour, a WizzAir flight from Prague to Rome was forced to land in Venice after a threat.
Yesterday, reports of explosives triggered evacuations and emergency searches of multiple planes heading to Milan, Rome, Sofia, Madrid, Copenhagen, Prague and other European cities.
A group called ‘Fighters of the Male State’ that threatened to ‘turn the sky red’ were behind the threats sent to Rome airport, which saw fighter jets intercept one plane before landing.
The reports yesterday were described as hoaxes after police forces and airports confirmed their searches so far have not discovered any genuine threats.
