President Donald Trump said Saturday that he will sign an executive order mandating voter I.D. for “Every Single Vote.”

Trump posted to Truth Social on Saturday evening that his executive order on voter I.D. would have “NO EXCEPTIONS!” He added that he would also take action to stop most voting by mail.

“Voter I.D. Must Be Part of Every Single Vote. NO EXCEPTIONS! I Will Be Doing An Executive Order To That End!!! Also, No Mail-In Voting, Except For Those That Are Very Ill, And The Far Away Military. USE PAPER BALLOTS ONLY!!!” the president posted.

Thirty-six states currently require some for of identification to be showed in order to vote, though that form differs by state. Of those 36, 25 require a photo ID while the other 11 do not specifically require photo identification. The remaining 14 states – which include deep blue states such as California, Illinois, and New York – do not require identification in order to vote on election day.

Trump earlier this month agitated against mail-in voting, promising to “lead a movement” to ban it. He also railed against “Highly ‘Inaccurate,’ Very Expensive, and Seriously Controversial VOTING MACHINES” in an August 18 post on his social media site, Truth.

“We are now the only Country in the World that uses Mail-In Voting. All others gave it up because of the MASSIVE VOTER FRAUD ENCOUNTERED,” he wrote at the time. “WE WILL BEGIN THIS EFFORT, WHICH WILL BE STRONGLY OPPOSED BY THE DEMOCRATS BECAUSE THEY CHEAT AT LEVELS NEVER SEEN BEFORE, by signing an EXECUTIVE ORDER to help bring HONESTY to the 2026 Midterm Elections.”

The president said that Democrats are “virtually Unelectable” without mail-in voting.

“ELECTIONS CAN NEVER BE HONEST WITH MAIL IN BALLOTS/VOTING, and everybody, IN PARTICULAR THE DEMOCRATS, KNOWS THIS,” he wrote.

In the 2024 election, roughly 30% of votes were cast by mail, according to the U.S. Election Assistance Commission. Most votes were cast in person, either during early voting or on the day of the election.

“The majority of voters in the 2024 general election cast their ballots in person, with 35.2% voting in person before Election Day and 37.4% voting in person on Election Day,” the commission wrote in a report on the 2024 election. “Mail voting comprised 30.3% of the turnout for the 2024 election, which is down from the high water mark for mail voting seen in 2020 (43%) but still larger than the percentage of the electorate that voted by mail in pre-pandemic elections.”

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani was seriously injured after a car accident in New Hampshire on Saturday night.

A spokesman for Giuliani said the 81-year-old was taken to a nearby trauma center with a fractured vertebrae and multiple cuts and bruises, including injuries to his left arm and lower leg. The spokesman said the accident occurred after Giuliani aided a woman who was a victim of domestic violence.

“Prior to the incident, Mayor Giuliani was flagged down by a woman who was the victim of a domestic violence incident. Mayor Giuliani immediately rendered assistance and contacted 911. He remained on scene until responding officers arrived to ensure her safety,” said Michael Ragusa, head of security for the former mayor. “Following this, while traveling on the highway, Mayor Giuliani’s vehicle was struck from behind at high speed.”

“This was not a targeted attack. We ask everyone to respect Mayor Giuliani’s privacy and recovery, and refrain from spreading unfounded conspiracy theories,” Ragusa added in a post on X.

The mayor is recovering in the hospital. His care is in part being overseen by his business partner, Maria Ryan, who is also a nurse. Ryan said that Giuliani is receiving further tests on his injuries.

Ragusa added that “the mayor is in great spirits. He’s a beast. He survived 9/11,” according to the New York Post.

Giuliani, who is known as “America’s mayor,’’ served as mayor of New York City from 1994 through 2001 when, on September 11, al-Qaeda terrorists crashed two passenger airliners into the Twin Towers as part of a larger terrorist attack on the United States. Giuliani’s leadership after the attack and his tough-on-crime policies in the 90s defined the mayor’s time leading New York City.
