Guard Soldiers Deployed in Trump's LA Crackdown Aren't Getting Paid Yet
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 and Tricare health benefits.
I don't think you have to pay to access military.com, but you do have to register. If that's a barrier, there is an archived copy of the article
Trump not paying his workers? Unheard of!
Ol Donald always pays his debts. If I had to choose four words to describe him it would be Trustworthy, Accountable, Charitable, and Orderly.
But it's not even Tuesday!
I genuinely don't understand why these dudes are showing up. They're not getting paid, not being ordered by the correct authority, no proper sleeping quarters. Like what's in it for them?? The satisfaction of authoritarianism???
Oh it'll hit them, you can string people along with "It's system glitches, you'll get paid next week!" for like 2 maybe 3 weeks before people start bailing
History will enjoy figuring out which straw broke the camels back
American complacency
It's like watching an idiot take the wheel of a car, threaten everyone that he's going to drive a car full of people off a cliff..... and everyone just shrug their shoulders and say, 'Well, we won't do anything until we hit the bottom of the canyon, then you'll be sorry'
Thank you for archive link.
I always thought history has taught us that not paying your army is always a massive mistake. I suppose those in power at the current time probably didn't do well in history classes and were likely even proud of it.
Didn't the US federal government learn in Iraq the consequences of stiffing paychecks to existing service members... ?
Guess not.
what happened
Iraqi Military became Iraqi insurgents/rebel forces (During US Occupation). Especially with all of their weaponry and training practically falling into the laps of the US's opposition during the war.
Lmfao fucking typical
So the whole stuff is so illegal that even the soldiers get doubts about it, and now they are not getting paid?
I have to re-read that chapter in "Recipies for Desasters" again...
