Trump Announces $1,776 Warrior Dividend Bonus

President Donald J. Trump has just announced a special $1,776 “Warrior Dividend”

bonus for U.S. military service members just in time for Christmas. 🇺🇸 The one‑time,

tax‑free payment will go to roughly 1.45 million active‑duty and eligible reserve troops in pay grades

O‑6 and below, honoring the year 1776 when the United States was founded. The Pentagon says

the payments should be deposited before December 20, and they’re being distributed as a

supplement to housing allowances under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Officials say it’s

meant as a “thank you” to service members and their families for their sacrifice though

the funding source and exact eligibility details have sparked debate.🇺🇸
