U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Dan Caine delivered what one expert described as a “significant” blow to President Donald Trump’s alleged scheme to meddle in the upcoming midterms.
In a letter to Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) shared by CNN’s Zachary Cohen on Monday, Caine confirmed that senior military leaders had “no plans” to deploy federal military personnel or National Guard members to polling places during the midterms, adding that he had “neither received nor anticipate receiving any unlawful order concerning the role of the Joint Force in the upcoming November 2026 midterm elections.”
