Paweł Żuchowski wrote, citing an analysis by Reuters, that the Republicans may have lost control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate. He indicated that the party had to defend its seats even in traditionally favorable states, such as Iowa and Kansas. According to Żuchowski, rising living costs, fuel prices, and dissatisfaction with Donald Trump's policies were becoming an increasingly significant problem for the Republicans. He added that three weeks before the elections, the battle was being fought for both chambers of Congress. Losing both, he wrote, would seriously limit Trump's ability to implement his agenda for the next two years. #Polityka #Wybory2023 #Republikanie (translated)

Jamesons stated that Meta reactivated its Instagram page after removing it in July, when it had more than 30,000 followers. According to the author, the company informed via email that the account did not violate Community Standards and could be used normally again. He said the page was deactivated for more than three months, including the entire first round of elections, and that the absence caused losses in reach, engagement, events, and content opportunities. Jamesons stated that he turned to the courts and that the process would continue, as the reactivation would not compensate for the damages. The author also alleged that Meta had been arbitrarily banning left-wing accounts while reducing their reach. He thanked those who followed the project during the period and asked for support to rebuild the page's presence on Instagram, with likes, comments, shares, and other interactions. #CulturaPop #LiberdadeDeExpressão #Justiça (translated)
