Today, we honor the veterans who have served our country.
It was one of the greatest honors of my life to serve as commander in chief, and our service members, including my son Beau, are always on my mind. Our country is a safer place because of them.
I’ve always said America is a place of possibilities. But those possibilities could not be realized without the sacrifice and dedication of our veterans and service members. Their choice of country over self is one we can never take for granted.
To our country’s veterans and their families, thank you for your service and sacrifice. May God protect our troops.

In 2023, Cindy Hyde-Smith blocked Scott Colom from becoming a federal judge.
In 2026, Scott Colom took her job instead.
Karma.

A soldier guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier issued a verbal reprimand to a group of advisers and staffers with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth following a Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. As the group broke from taking photos, a loud laugh could be heard, and the soldier guarding the tomb shouted: “All visitors will maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect at all times.”

Three years ago, Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith blocked Scott Colom’s nomination for a federal judgeship. Now, he’s beaten her in Mississippi’s Senate race and is about to take her job.

On Veterans Day, we recognize the men and women who have sacrificed so much for our country. We owe them more than our gratitude — we owe them our unwavering commitment to ensuring they receive the care, benefits and support they’ve earned.

We may have had to count One Mississippi, Two Mississippi, but Blue Mississippi sure has a nice ring to it! Scott, you put your heart and soul into this race because you believe in the promise of your state’s people. And they believed in you right back. I’m honored to have stood alongside you. Congratulations!
