The White House has warned Democrats over future investigations, citing possible criminality. NPR reported the warning on November 12, 2026, in a report that described the administration's stance as aggressive.

The administration's posture concerns the oversight Democrats could pursue once the new Congress begins next year. Congressional oversight is the work lawmakers do to examine how federal agencies and officials act, usually through hearings and investigations.

The NPR report was written by Tamara Keith and Michel Martin and aired on Morning Edition, the network's weekday morning news program.
