EVERY SINGLE THING TRUMP SAID IN HIS SPEECH WAS A LIE...including the money for US Troops.
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.

He's now reportedly donating to Republicans again ahead of the 2026 midterms.
Musk pulled the strings early on in Trump 2.0.
It now appears that he wants even more influence within the GOP.

Big: GOP Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick just signed the Democratic discharge petition by Hakeem Jeffries for a clean 3-year ACA funding extension. All 214 Dems have signed. Fitzpatrick is 215. Three more Republicans and it has enough support to end-run Mike Johnson and get a House vote.
