77-Year-Old Florida Veteran Investigated For Sending an Official a Postcard Saying 'You Lack Values' - https://reason.com/2026/07/06/77-year-old-florida-veteran-investigated-for-sending-an-official-a-postcard-saying-you-lack-values/
"Public records show that high-ranking Florida officials were behind a recent threat investigation into a 77-year-old Army veteran. The reason for the investigation: a postcard to the state's chief financial officer that simply read, "You lack values."
James O'Gara, a resident of Largo, Florida, was interviewed by detectives from the criminal division of the Florida Department of Financial Services (DFS) last September after he mailed the postcard to Chief Financial Officer Blaise Ingoglia's office. The police encounter led to accusations of First Amendment retaliation and government bullying by Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis' administration.
Records released by the DFS to Reason shed light on the internal decision to investigate O'Gara, his interview with detectives, and the ensuing public backlash. An audio recording of detectives' interview with O'Gara shows that they didn't think there was anything wrong with his statement and quickly closed their investigation. After local and state media covered the incident, Ingoglia's office received dozens of postcards from all over the country with the same message: "You lack values.""
