Trump is heavily focused on getting a military that's personally loyal to him, from the generals to the rank-and-file. He needs it for when he asks them to fire on protesting American citizens, or staging his next coup
It's a shell game. Trump is taking money from soldiers' housing subsidies to "give" them $1,776 "warrior dividend" checks.
Trump rebrands Congressionally-approved troop housing subsidy as ‘warrior dividend’ bonus
More than $2.9 billion in reconciliation funds was allocated to beef up troop housing allowances. Now it’s being used for $1,776 checks.

This is stunning work. And an incredible lived experience of why it’s worth it to just keep banging on at your thing.
This composition had eluded me for nearly a decade, but yesterday I was finally able to capture it. A train rolled through just as the Duquesne Incline was crossing over the tracks in #Pittsburgh, creating a picture perfect winter scene. It was worth the hours and hours I've waited over the years.

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

But during Trump’s second term, only 10 of the roughly 1,600 people granted pardons had filed such petitions.
