Democratic Senator Adam Schiff stated that former President Donald Trump intends to subvert the results of the 2026 midterm elections if Republicans lose seats in Congress, according to ABC News. This announcement comes as the East Coast braces for a major arctic blast, with millions of Americans under alert for dangerous cold, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average hit a historic milestone.
Schiff made the remarks on ABC News' "This Week," expressing concern over Trump's intentions. "I think Trump intends to try to subvert the elections," Schiff said. "And if he loses the vote ... he's prepared to try to take some kind of action to overturn the result, and we really shouldn't question that." These comments follow Trump's continued rhetoric surrounding the 2020 election results, which he has falsely claimed were stolen.
Meanwhile, nearly 80 million people across the East Coast were on alert for a major arctic blast over the weekend, as reported by ABC News. Extreme Cold Warnings were in effect across much of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. Wind chills were already down to frigid levels from the Great Lakes to the Carolinas early Saturday, with even lower numbers expected.
