Guard Soldiers Deployed in Trump's LA Crackdown Aren't Getting Paid Yet

[IM2]

This is a story from Military.com. The president deployed the guard without the governor's permission and is trying to make them work for free.

Guard Soldiers Deployed in Trump's LA Crackdown Aren't Getting Paid Yet​

The 4,000 California National Guard soldiers who President Donald Trump surged into Los Angeles remain unpaid due to delays in issuing official activation orders, leaving compensation and benefits in limbo.

According to more than a dozen Guardsmen across four units who spoke to Military.com, none has received formal activation orders, the critical paperwork that not only authorizes their duty status, but also unlocks pay, Tricare health benefits and eligibility for Department of Veterans Affairs services. Without those orders, troops remain in a legal and administrative limbo.

So, they've been there less than a week, and not paid yet?
IM2 must think they're day laborers.

I agree they need to get it official and when they do, those soldiers will receive back pay. Also the article is confusing because it says they haven't missed a paycheck yet....what's up with that?

Even before reading this link I can tell from 35 years of federal experience that it takes several weeks for any pay to arrive in your bank account. These NGs have only been deployed for a few days. Not even a week.

Every time I was PCSed to another duty station, it took PAC roughly 8 weeks to start my pay allotment going to my bank. Same thing for refunds on income tax. It's because everything has to go thru DFAS and a rather lengthy process.

IM2 wants Trump to show up with pallets of cash and act as paymaster.

Well, Trump DID work at McDonald's.

Well, Trump DID work at McDonald's.

If Trump were to start paying the NGs the looters would try attacking them for the cash in their pockets.

Somebody would end up getting shot.

Seems the only thing Democrats are any good at is complaining and causing chaos.

The democrats want to destabilize the US. They have paid participants to incite
the riots. They opened the border for four years to get the criminal element into this country
to fuel the destabilization.
ONE WORLD ORDER is on life support because of Trump.

The military gets paid on the first and the 15th of each month, the earliest they would receive any pay check would then be the first of july, I didn't get a paycheck until after bootcamp, 8 weeks after I started my active duty so 7/01 would be pretty darn quick for them to get paid.

Bootcamp for me was 10 weeks.

I didn't start getting my pay till 2 weeks before graduation.
And they wouldn't give it to us till after the ceremony.

So when did you start worrying about whether or not our military gets paid, ya dumb-assed clown?


"If we cut the military spending to match China, which spends less than half of what we do, we wouldn't be arguing about spending."

Voting Party vs Ideology


"We need to demand that our leaders not give the military a trillion dollars instead of bitching about the few millions NPR gets."

Should Truth Social Receive Federal Funding?


"We don't need a trillion dollar military budget."

Trump proposes $1 Trillion defense budget


"If we're broke then let's stop funding the military and giving huge subsidies to corporations."

Trump Administration fires entire staff of program helping low-income homes pay for heating


"Reduce military spending."

So How Much Money did Musk Save Taxpayers by Closing USAID?


"How about we cut military spending? Spending isn't why America loses over 1 trillion dollars per year."

One Extreme Begets Another


"Redirect military spending, establish a national living wage, eradicate white racism and male sexism and you won't have to worry about "spending"."

Who Will Stop Elon Musk's Coup?

IM2 spends his days looking at horrible propaganda websites that are in existence to only bitch and moan about Trump.

They lead him by the nose effectively.

Isn't it Trump who's causing the chaos? I think Trump is hoping someone gets shot.

“If we weren’t there, if we didn’t bring in the National Guard and the Marines, you would probably have a city that was burning to the ground,” Trump baselessly stated. “You would have had a big problem there, if we weren’t — in fact, the police chief said so much if you look at what his statements were. He said we’re very lucky to have had them.”

WRONG! When asked McDonnell disputed the president’s statement.

He stressed that protests were "nowhere near" the level required to deploy the troops.

No, the rioting started before the troops got there, but, we have history to show us what happens if people are left unchallenged in these situations. 2020 was an indicator that, if you give people an inch, they'll take a mile.

Reading Mr. Trump's mind now?

 

[g5000]

From the Irony Files, we have this statement by Donald Trump to our troops as he takes a swipe at Joe Biden:

“I’ve known this guy for a long time. He was never the sharpest bulb."



I can understand why Trump doesn't drink. He already sounds drunk when he talks. He slurs. He drags his words out. He mispronounces and stumbles over words. He says hilarious things like, "He was never the sharpest bulb."

Don't drink and diatribe, TACO.
