Democrats Won Both Chambers. The Congressional Subpoenas Start in January.

Democrats won the House and Senate on November 3, 2026, and incoming committee chairs answered within hours: “LAWYER UP” and “Subpoenas.” Former DOJ prosecutors Scott Armstrong and Drew Bradylyons, a Chambers-ranked white-collar and government investigations firm in Washington, D.C., explain what the incoming chairs have said on the record, how a Democratic Senate changes subpoena enforcement, which crypto, prediction market, and donor investigations will move first, and how a congressional record becomes a DOJ, SEC, CFTC, or state case.
