• Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is reportedly attempting to block the promotion of four Army officers, two women and two Black men, to one-star general, according to a New York Times report.
• Hegseth allegedly removed their names from the promotion list himself after Army leaders, including Secretary Dan Driscoll, reportedly refused to do so, citing the officers' excellent records.
• Since becoming head of the Pentagon, Hegseth has sought to eliminate 'woke' policies such as diversity, equity, and inclusion, emphasizing that all promotions should be based solely on merit.
• Pentagon Spokesperson Sean Parnell denied the New York Times story, calling it 'fake news' and asserting that promotions under Hegseth are merit-based and unbiased.
• The report also details other instances of Hegseth's influence on military personnel, including the reassignment of several high-ranking female admirals and an alleged comment by his chief of staff regarding a Black woman officer's promotion.

Racist? Sexist?

Hello Folks... Did You Hear About This?

There are reports that an American air base on US soil, on the US mainland, down in  Louisiana was attacked by drones!

We it on the front page of the national newspapers? We it a breaking story on the evening news.

No, I found out about from an India newspaper! And from that I found local news articles...

Coordinated drone swarms breach Barksdale Air Force Base airspace over six-day period

Shreveport Bossier Journal

March 23, 2026

What initially appeared to be a single unauthorized drone sighting over Barksdale Air Force Base on March 9 was in fact the opening of a coordinated, week-long intrusion campaign involving multiple waves of sophisticated unmanned aircraft, according to a confidential internal military briefing document reviewed by ABC News.

The scope and nature of the incursions have raised serious national security concerns at one of the United States military’s most strategically important installations.

What Happened

A shelter-in-place order was issued at Barksdale on the morning of March 9 after a drone was detected over the airfield. The order was lifted later that day, and the incident was initially treated as an isolated event. The base’s security posture was temporarily elevated to Force Protection Condition Charlie — a designation indicating a potential threat to personnel or facilities.

But the intrusions did not stop there.

According to the confidential briefing document dated March 15, security forces at Barksdale observed multiple waves of 12 to 15 drones operating over sensitive areas of the installation between March 9 and March 15, including directly over the flight line. The drones displayed non-commercial signal characteristics, long-range control links, and resistance to electronic jamming. The briefing further noted the drones entered and exited the base in patterns that suggested deliberate attempts to avoid having their operators located, and that lights on the drones indicated the operators may have been intentionally testing the base’s security responses.

So let me get this straight... drones shut down an American air base on our soil and none of the nation news organizations covered it? WBRZ writes,

According to the confidential briefing document dated March 15, the drones came in waves and entered and exited the base in a way that may suggest attempts to “avoid the operator(s) being located.” Lights on the drones suggested the operators “may be testing security responses” at the base.

A test? Harbinger of things to come?

Trump keeps on saying that we won the war, but Iran says no? I have a very strong suspicion that Trump and Hegseth have poked a hornet's nest and they have no idea of things to come.

This Is Bad, Really Bad

[Editorial]

I worked in the nuclear industry for almost 30 years, and I find this downright scary. One thing I’ve always respected when dealing with the NRC is their professionalism. I’ve been in meetings with the head of the South Korean NRC, and I’ve also been audited by the U.S. NRC. So when I read this, it sent shivers down my spine. I’ve always believed that safety was the number one priority... but now, it seems profit is king.

DOGE Goes Nuclear: How Trump Invited Silicon Valley Into America’s Nuclear Power Regulator

Pro Publica

by Avi Asher-Schapiro

March 20, 2026

Reporting Highlights

• Fast Nuclear Buildout: The Trump administration is rapidly rewriting rules to support the development of nuclear power plants.
• Aligning With Industry: Staffers from DOGE are revamping rules in ways to ease regulations and provide financial breaks for industry.
• “No Longer Independent”: Nuclear Regulatory Commission veterans say the administration is limiting oversight in dangerous ways.

I'll tell you this, the bullet points put profits over safety!

Energy gathered at the Idaho National Laboratory, a sprawling 890-square-mile complex in the eastern desert of Idaho where the U.S. government built its first rudimentary nuclear power plant in 1951 and continues to test cutting-edge technology.

On the agenda that day: the future of nuclear energy in the Trump era. The meeting was convened by 31-year-old lawyer Seth Cohen. Just five years out of law school, Cohen brought no significant experience in nuclear law or policy; he had just entered government through Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency team.

As Cohen led the group through a technical conversation about licensing nuclear reactor designs, he repeatedly downplayed health and safety concerns. When staff brought up the topic of radiation exposure from nuclear test sites, Cohen broke in.

“They are testing in Utah. … I don’t know, like 70 people live there,” he said.

These people are not interested in safety! These people are in it for the profits! Safety cost $$$$!

The NRC has critics, especially in Silicon Valley, where the often-cautious commission is portrayed as an impediment to innovation. In an early salvo, President Donald Trump fired NRC Commissioner Christopher Hanson last June after Hanson spoke out about the importance of agency independence. It was the first time an NRC commissioner had been fired.

During that Idaho meeting, Cohen shot down any notion of NRC independence in the new era.

“Assume the NRC is going to do whatever we tell the NRC to do,” he said, records reviewed by ProPublica show. In November, Cohen was made chief counsel for nuclear policy at the Department of Energy, where he oversees a broad nuclear portfolio.

I’m telling you... this is bad.

Even more troubling, long-time staff have been pushed out and replaced with people who seem more interested in profits. They fired 443 seasoned employees and replaced them with just 57 handpicked newcomers.

This could lead to another Chernobyl. There, operators disabled key safety systems to carry out a test—why? To cut costs and avoid relying on expensive backup power.

Now we have a group of people who lack deep industry or safety experience, yet are under pressure to squeeze more profit out of the industry, particularly to meet the demands of energy-hungry AI systems.

A ProPublica analysis of staffing data from the NRC and the Office of Personnel Management shows a rush to the exits: Over 400 people have left the agency since Trump took office. The losses are particularly pronounced in the teams that handle reactor and nuclear materials safety and among veteran staffers with 10 or more years of experience. Meanwhile, hiring of new staff has proceeded at a snail’s pace, with nearly 60 new arrivals in the first year of the Trump administration compared with nearly 350 in the last year of the Biden administration.

Are you scared yet? I am!

You know how we are installing Flock LPR (license plate recognition) and red light cameras everywhere?

Well, do you know how they recently targeted the Iranian leaders? Surveillance cameras! Yep, they hacked right into the network.

Iran built a vast camera network to control dissent. Israel turned it into a targeting tool

AP News

By  DAKE KANG and SAM MEDNICK

March 23, 2026

The role of Israel’s hijacking of Iran’s street cameras in the killing of the country’s supreme leader underscores how surveillance systems are increasingly being targeted by adversaries in wartime.

Hundreds of millions of cameras have been installed above shops, in homes and on street corners across the world, many connected to the internet and poorly secured. Recent advances in artificial intelligence have enabled militaries and intelligence agencies to sift through vast amounts of surveillance footage and identify targets.

On Feb. 28, Israel vividly demonstrated the potential of such systems to be hacked and used against adversaries when Israel tracked down Iranian leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei with the help of Tehran’s own street cameras - despite repeated warnings that Iran’s surveillance systems had been compromised, according to interviews and an Associated Press review of leaked data, public statements and news reports.

Do you think Trump’s team has considered that this exact 'trick' could be used against us by Iran or other adversaries... to track political targets on our own soil?

Big Brother is watching you... but who knows who else is watching Big Brother?

Social Media & The LGBTQ+ Community

[Editorial]

There is a problem brewing on social media. Controlling what minors can view online is becoming another battleground. Conservatives want to block children from visiting LGBTQ+ websites, much like they have pushed to ban books with LGBTQ+ topics.

You all have probably seen the news, governments around the world are cracking down on what minors can view. But that raises questions! 

All this "Age Verification" bills could be bypassed be a ten year old! Fair Play wrote;

Our legal analysis of the Kids Online Safety Act

by Haley Hinkle, Fairplay Policy Counsel

Fairplay has been a vocal champion of the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) because of the many ways the bill will create a safer, less manipulative internet for kids and teens. Critics have highlighted two primary concerns with the bill: That it enables widespread censorship, and that it will lead to age verification and identification checks across the internet. Today, we wanted to share our analysis of these issues and explain why we believe both outcomes are highly unlikely.

Censorship

Critics of KOSA have argued that the bill’s Duty of Care will lead to widespread content censorship online, including censorship of content from and about the LGBTQ+ community. These critics contend that in order to comply with KOSA and avoid lawsuits from state attorneys general, companies will remove entire categories of content from their platforms. One critic has gone so far as to claim, “If KOSA passes, all the benefits of accurate health information, social networking, community, and access to help in a questioning or crisis situation will be eliminated for all LGBTQ youth.”1

Contrary to such hyperbolic claims, the text of the bill does not create a basis for content censorship, as we have previously outlined.2 The Duty of Care in Section 3 requires covered platforms to examine the impact of the design and operation of any product, service, or feature on specific, enumerated harms. Covered platforms are required to take reasonable measures to prevent and mitigate those harms. The listed harms are clearly defined and connected to the demonstrated harms children and teens face online every day. Section 3 also includes a limiting principle that says nothing in the Duty of Care shall be construed to prevent “any minor from deliberately and independently searching for, or specifically requesting, content.” The bill text is clear: a platform’s obligations under the Duty of Care are not about any individual piece of content’s existence or removal.

Critics have not provided a basis for their assertion that platforms will comply with KOSA’s Duty of Care requirements by engaging in widespread censorship. There are countless examples of design choices and product offerings that would be subject to scrutiny under KOSA. Products such as Snapchat and Meta’s AI chatbots, which target young users in order to maximize engagement,3 and the expansion of Meta’s Horizon Worlds VR to teenagers, and now, preteens4 would have to be assessed for their potential impact on kids and teens before they are launched and harm young users. Further, Big Tech would be required to assess the impact of design features such as endless scroll and autoplay as well as content recommendation algorithms and to mitigate the impact of those features on the enumerated harms.5 [For the footnotes see the article]

That is what I wonder about, what will happen to us the trans community? When I was growing up all I could find an trans stuff. When I leaned the word "Transsexual" I looked it in the libraries' card files. The only thing that I could find was "pervert" and "mental disorder" Will we going back to that?

The ACLU writes,

As jazz music, which began in Black communities, spread across the nation in the 1920s, more than 60 cities adopted rules limiting or outright banning it in dancehalls. Clergy and civic reformers claimed its rhythms promoted sexual freedom and interracial dancing among the youth.

Jazz was just the beginning. In the 1950s, the government set up investigations into crime, horror, and excess violence in comic books, calling on the industry to introduce rating systems and encouraging a ban on extreme violence. A few years later, Santa Cruz police shut down a dance for “highly suggestive, stimulating and tantalizing motions.” The kids were dancing to rock ‘n’ roll, which the city ultimately banned along with “frenzied forms.”

[...]

Legislatures around the country are responding to growing concerns about the potential harms of social media for children and teenagers. They’ve introduced bills with a hodgepodge of strategies to target these potential harms, including requiring people to verify their age before using social media, getting verified parental consent for minors, and mandating social media platforms to block material that the government deems harmful for kids. But whether it’s banning jazz or content on social media, broad attempts to regulate speech fail to protect children and violate the First Amendment in the process.

But still they do it! Why? Because they know that the other side will say that they are anti-children, So instead they will pass feel good legislation... see we are doing something!

My take on all of this is, the person who is paying for the phones gets to rule what their children can access! Not the government! Simple when you get internet or a phone you check off when you can access. The rallying cry for the Republican's is "Parental Rights" but they also have "Parental Duties!" So why does the Republicans want impose this on everyone and not the parents?

All you need when you get internet or a phone...

• ✓ I want this phone to block websites with adult material
• ✓ I want this phone to block social media
• ✓ I want this phone to allow parent monitoring

That is what they need! Not some fancy laws, not laws where right-wing bigots can can block anything LGBTQ+

Special Rights?

I tell you Hegseth is reshaping the military into a "Christian" army!

Hegseth says military chaplains will no longer display rank

BrieAnna J. Frank

USA TODAY

March 24, 2026

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced two major changes to the military's chaplaincy corps on March 24, one of which will mean chaplains will no longer wear their rank insignia.

They will instead display their religious insignia while retaining their rank as officers. They "will be seen among the highest ranks because of their divine calling," Hegseth said in a video posted to X.

The change reflects Hegseth's wider effort to infuse the chaplaincy, and the military more broadly, with more explicitly religious sentiments.

WTF! "will be seen among the highest ranks because of their divine calling,"!!!!

A smaller, more streamlined system will support chaplains in "minister(ing) to service members in a way that aligns with that service member’s faith background and religious practice," said Hegseth, adding that the Pentagon is "not even close to being done" in taking steps toward "restoring the esteemed position of chaplain."

Stars and Stripes writes,

Since 2017, the Defense Department has recognized 221 groups as religious denominations or belief systems, ranging from mainstream to obscure Christian sects, Wiccans and atheists. That system was impractical and unusual, Hegseth said this week. Moving forward, the Pentagon will use 31 religious affiliation codes. “This brings the codes in line with its original purpose: giving chaplains clear, usable information, so they can minister to service members in a way that aligns with that service member’s faith background and religious practice,” he said.

Will only conservative religions will be covered? That liberal religions will be pushed aside?

 

So does that mean... a gay or lesbian servicemember comes it that they will try to make them straight? Or want about a woman who is having an abortion what will the chaplain more "explicitly religious sentiments" try to talk her out of having an abortion?

Meanwhile...

Pete Hegseth’s Christian rhetoric draws renewed scrutiny after the U.S. goes to war with Iran

Los Angles Times

By Tiffany Stanley

March 20, 2026

• Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has brought conservative Christian values into Pentagon operations, from monthly worship services to plans reshaping the military chaplain corps.
• As the U.S. enters war with Iran, critics warn Hegseth’s religious rhetoric risks inflaming tensions and compromising the military’s secular, pluralistic mission.
• Unverified allegations that military commanders invoked biblical prophecies to troops have drawn congressional attention, though watchdog groups haven’t independently confirmed complaints.

 Since becoming Defense secretary, Pete Hegseth has found no shortage of ways to bring his strand of conservative evangelicalism into the Pentagon.

He hosts monthly Christian worship services for employees. His department’s promotional videos have displayed Bible verses alongside military footage. In speeches and interviews, he often argues the U.S. was founded as a Christian nation and troops should embrace God, potentially risking the military’s secular mission and hard-won pluralism.

[...]

Hegseth has a history of defending the Crusades, the brutal medieval wars that pitted Christians against Muslims. In his 2020 book “American Crusade,” he wrote that those who enjoy Western civilization should “thank a crusader.” Two of his tattoos draw from crusader imagery: the Jerusalem Cross and the phrase “Deus Vult,” or “God wills it,” which Hegseth has called “the rallying cry of Christian knights as they marched to Jerusalem.”

I am afraid of him! I am afraid he is creating a military who doesn't answer to the Constitution but to the Bible!

The Republican Answer!

[Editorial]

With the price of gas going through the roof—thanks to Trump’s war and the shutting down of the straits—the Republicans are using high gas prices as an excuse to cut gas taxes.

What a great idea!

But not so fast… cuts in the gas tax mean cuts elsewhere! The devil is in the details: where do they want to cut? Why, it’s their favorite… social services!

So they want to help the middle class keep driving their gas guzzlers by cutting funding. Where are they going to cut so that their constituents can drive around in their Tahoes and Escalades?

The car I drive is a Prius Plug-in. For this tank of gas, I am getting 125 mpg! I have around 97,000 miles on the car… it says I am averaging 82.1 mpg! Compare that to Tahoes (~16–18 mpg), Escalades (~16–17 mpg), and Ford F-150s or Chevy Silverados (around 18–25 mpg). I am a survivor of the 1973 Oil Crisis, and I remember “Even–Odd!” “I Can’t Drive 55!”

What was done back then was targeted to spread the pain over everyone, while today it is targeted at lower-income families and those just scraping by. The political parties worked together to solve the crisis instead of trying to stab the Democrats in the back in a “gotcha” maneuver.

Back then, it was the Yom Kippur War that caused the crisis. Now we can thank Trump for all of this! You would think that with all the bright generals Hesith replaced the others with—his hand-picked generals—and all the military analysis that DOGE fired, someone in Trump’s cabinet would have asked the obvious question: “What happens when the Strait of Hormuz is blocked?” You think someone would have asked, “What happens when we stop the flow of oil?”

So the Connecticut Republicans chose to help the rich and screw the rest of us by cutting social services. And remember... "It's the Economy Stupid!"

I Was All Alone...

... I used to feel like I was the only one who felt the way I did. Then, this song came on the radio one Saturday morning while I was washing my car for a date.

Girls will be boys and boys will be girls

It's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world, except for Lola

La-la-la-la Lola

At the time, whenever I encountered the word "transsexual," I researched it, but what I found never seemed to apply to me. No way could I be trans—the definitions back then only used words like "pervert" and "sexual deviant."

Then I heard about Lola, and my world changed.

Recently, however, the lens has shifted. The Guardian reported this week (March 23, 2026) that,

Kinks guitarist Dave Davies hits back at Moby for calling 1970 single Lola ‘gross and transphobic’

The band’s co-founder responded to the US musician’s comments, defending the song and saying they are ‘not transphobic’

by Laura Snapes

Mon 23 Mar 2026

The Kinks co-founder and guitarist Dave Davies hit back at Moby after the US electronic musician said that he could no longer listen to the band’s 1970 hit Lola on the grounds that he found it “gross and transphobic”.

Moby told the Guardian Saturday magazine’s Honest Playlist feature that he was repulsed by the song after it came up on a Spotify playlist. “I like their early music, but I was really taken aback at how unevolved the lyrics are,” he said.

The song details a young man in a nightclub falling for a figure who “walked like a woman but talked like a man”. It concludes: “Girls will be boys and boys will be girls / It’s a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world / Except for Lola.”

Davies responded on X: “I am highly insulted that Moby would accuse my brother” – Kinks songwriter Ray Davies – “of being ‘unevolved’ or transphobic in any way.” In another post, he continued: “I don’t wanna show the guy up, but Moby should be careful what he says.”

It’s a strange conflict of eras. As Bob Dylan wrote, "The Times They Are A-Changin'." They were changing in the seventies, and they are still changing today—and so is our vocabulary. Back then, the community was amazed that a song like "Lola" would even be played on the radio. It was avant-garde; it broke the ice. As punk icon Jayne County once wrote,

In the letter, County described herself as “thrilled and amazed” that the Kinks would write such a song, and wondered if other listeners had clocked its subject. “Lola will always be one of those songs that for me ‘broke the ice’ so to speak! A song that breaks down barriers and brings a used to be, hush, hush subject to the forefront and makes it sound perfectly natural to be singing a song about a ‘girl’ named Lola!”

She said that the song had propelled the Kinks into “the modern world. The REAL world! A world full of all kinds of people! Bisexual, gay, trans, not just a world full of straight heterosexuals!”

The LGBTQ+ subject matter of Lola was not without precedent for the Kinks. In 1965, their song See My Friends centred on a man unsure of his sexual orientation. Dave Davies also wrote in his 1996 autobiography Kink about having had affairs with musician Long John Baldry and producer Michael Aldred.

And sometime our lens change color!

Florida Democrats flip two seats in special legislative elections

In the shocker of the night, Democrat Brian Nathan defeated Republican Josie Tomkow in the Senate District 14 race by 408 votes.

Florida Phoenix

By: Mitch Perry

March 24, 2026

Florida Democrats flipped two legislative seats Tuesday night in their biggest election night in years.

In the only state Senate election on the ballot, Democrat Brian Nathan, a Navy veteran, union organizer, and first-time candidate, shocked Republican state Rep. Josie Tomkow in the Hillsborough County Senate District 14 contest, winning by just 408 votes, taking 50.25% of the vote to Tomkow 49.75%.

Tomkow said she will run again for the seat in November.

The seat has been vacant since August, when Gov. Ron DeSantis appointed GOP incumbent Jay Collins to serve as his lieutenant governor.

[...]

In the Palm Beach County House District 87 race that includes Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence, Democrat Emily Gregory, a first-time candidate with a public-health background, defeated Republican financial adviser Jon Maples, 51%-49%, in a district that Trump won by more than 10 points in 2024.

It’s a seat that was formerly held by Rep. Mike Caruso, one of Ron DeSantis’ closest allies in the House whom he elevated to the county clerk of the court position last summer. Caruso won the seat by 19 points in 2024.

That is why the Republicans are pushing the SAVE Act! They are scared s**tless that the Democrats will control Congress and impeach Trump!

The AARP had this to say about the act:

Key Takeaways

• A proposed federal bill would require proof of citizenship when registering to vote and photo ID at the polls, making voting tougher for many older adults
• Millions lack easy access to passports or birth certificates, and older adults face added complications from name changes, moves or expired IDs
• The changes could complicate mail-in voting and create new avenues for identity theft

Older adults are a force in deciding U.S. elections.

Voters 65 and older have had the highest turnout of any age group since 1988, with 72 percent casting ballots in 2020. For the 2024 election, voters 50 and older made up 55 percent of the electorate.

But a bill that passed the House of Representatives could make it harder for U.S. citizens 50 and older to exercise these rights. The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, or SAVE America Act, would require Americans to provide proof of citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections, even though citizenship is already a requirement to vote. The proposal would also compel voters to show valid photo identification at the polls or submit a copy of their ID when mailing a ballot. The bill is awaiting a vote in the Senate.

The AARP is warning about the dangers of the SAVE Act!

Only a few documents, such as a U.S. passport or a birth certificate in conjunction with a valid form of photo ID, will satisfy the proposed requirements in the SAVE America Act. The Brennan Center for Justice, a nonpartisan law and policy organization, estimates that more than 21 million Americans of voting age don’t have easy access to documents that confirm citizenship. Roughly half of Americans 65 and older lack a passport, according to a YouGov survey from 2023. If your passport has expired, you will need weeks (and must pay a fee) to renew it. Older Americans who have moved often over the span of their lives, or have moved out of their homes and into nursing or assisted living facilities, may have an especially tough time gathering the required proof of eligibility.

And remember: regarding voter fraud, the Brennan Center found "...meticulously studied for voter fraud, and found incident rates between 0.0003 percent and 0.0025 percent."The SAVE Act exists for only one thing: to protect the Republican Party—even Trump said it! The Dispatch reported that,

Many pugilists in the debate over the SAVE America Act assume that a proof-of-citizenship requirement would yield a Republican electoral advantage. Trump said that the Democrats “know if we get [the SAVE America Act], they probably won’t win an election for 50 years.” Sen. Mike Lee of Utah warned that Republicans will lose power—“likely for a long time”—if Congress doesn’t pass it (although Trump won in 2016 and 2024 without the legislation, and Utah, Lee’s home state, does not require documented proof of citizenship for voter registration).

Why do they know they will win if the SAVE Act is passed? Because they already tried a "mini-SAVE Act," and it did exactly what it was supposed to do: disenfranchise voters!

What happened when Kansas tried a version of Trump's SAVE Act? Chaos

As the Senate considers President Donald Trump's stringent anti-voter fraud measure, legal experts say Kansas's offers a troubling case study

By Josh Meyer

USA TODAY

Updated March 19, 2026

If you want to understand what might happen nationwide if President Donald Trump's SAVE America Act goes into effect, ask lawyer Lauren Bonds, who fought − and defeated − a similar statewide law in Kansas nearly a decade ago.

Bonds was part of a legal team that sued Kansas and its secretary of state, Kris Kobach, after they implemented a voter registration law that required proof of citizenship to register to vote, as Trump's proposal would.

A federal judge ruled that the state law was unconstitutional and violated federal election laws designed to protect people from being disenfranchised, or unfairly denied the ability to vote.

By then, though, the damage had been done. At least 31,000 people were barred from registering to vote, according to the judge’s findings, including in a key statewide election in 2014 in which incumbent Republican Gov. Sam Brownback narrowly defeated Democrat Paul Davis.

Thirty-one thousand voters denied the right to vote!!!

Bonds and other voting rights advocates said that if Republicans manage to pass the SAVE America Act, or SAVE Act for short, it could disenfranchise vast numbers of eligible voters.

"It was tens of thousands of people in Kansas," Bonds, legal director for the American Civil Liberties Union of Kansas at the time, told USA TODAY. "Obviously, if you multiply that nationally, it could really deprive a bunch of people who are undoubtedly lawfully authorized to vote from being able to cast their ballot."

This entire SAVE Act is for one thing, and one thing only: to keep the Republicans in power forever and ever!

The Save Act also bans mail-in ballots!

Trump, Who Says Voting by Mail Is 'Cheating,' Casts Mail-In Ballot in Florida as He Seeks to Block the Option for Others

Palm Beach County records show that Trump, 79, voted via mail ahead of this week’s special election in the state, according to reports

Published on March 24, 2026

President Donald Trump has reportedly cast another ballot via mail, despite his constant criticism of mail-in voting.

Earlier this month, Trump, 79, voted in this week’s special election for House District 87 in Florida, which includes his Mar-a-Lago residence, CNN reported, citing Palm Beach County records.

Public records suggest that the president’s mail ballot had been counted and received by election officials in Palm Beach County, per NBC News. Trump is registered to vote in the area.
