Democrats have officially won control of both the House and Senate‼️

According to the Associated Press, Democrats secured enough seats in the 2026 midterms to take majorities in both chambers of Congress. Reuters also confirmed the sweep after Democrats flipped several Republican-held seats across the country.

The results mark the first midterm election since 2006 where control of both the House and Senate changed parties. Democrats will officially take control when the new Congress is seated in January 2027.

What do y’all think of the midterm results⁉️

🥬🔥 GRANDMA’S SOUTHERN CHOW CHOW 🔥🥬
Here’s how to make it 👇🏾

Before you eat another plate of collard greens or ribs, you need this! 😮‍💨

This is my grandma’s chow chow, made my way 👵🏾❤️ It’s a sweet, tangy, crunchy pickled relish that’s been on Southern tables for over 200 years. Spoon it on greens 🥬, ribs 🍖, fish 🐟, beans 🫘, or hot dogs 🌭. Downright delicious! 🙌🏾

📝 INGREDIENTS (makes about 8 cups)

🥗 VEGGIES
🍅 2 cups green tomatoes | 🧅 1½ cups yellow onion
🫑 ½ red + ½ green bell pepper | 🥬 ¼ green + ¼ red cabbage
🧄 5 cloves garlic | 🧂 3 tbsp coarse salt

🫙 BRINE
🍎 2 cups apple cider vinegar | 🍬 ½–⅔ cup sugar
🌼 1 tbsp mustard seeds | 🌼 1 tsp ground mustard
🌿 1 tsp celery seeds | ✨ ½ tsp turmeric
🤎 ¼ tsp allspice | 🌶️ ½–1 tsp red pepper flakes

👨🏾‍🍳 HOW TO MAKE IT
1️⃣ Chop the veggies small, toss them with the salt, and let them sit for 1 to 2 hours. 🔪
2️⃣ Drain, rinse well, and squeeze out the liquid. 💧
3️⃣ Pack the veggies into clean jars. 🫙
4️⃣ Boil the brine until the sugar dissolves. ♨️
5️⃣ Pour the hot brine over the veggies. 🔥
6️⃣ Let it cool, seal the jars, and refrigerate. ❄️

⏰ It’s ready in 24 hours, but it’s best after 2 to 3 days. It keeps for about a month in the fridge.

❤️ The longer it sits, the deeper red it turns. That’s the red cabbage working its magic! 🎨

❄️ STORAGE: This version is for the fridge only. Don’t leave it on the shelf!

🫙 WANT TO SHELF IT? Simmer the veggies in the brine for about 10 minutes, pack them hot into sterilized jars, and water-bath can the pints for 10 minutes. Once sealed, it’s shelf-stable. 🙌🏾

📌 Save this one, and don’t tell a soul I told you! 🤫
