After the administration, according to Trump, had brought in \u201ctrillions of dollars\u201d in tariff revenue, he promised to give $2,000 to every American.<\/p>\n<p>Exactly when that would be paid out and how was not clear, but experts urged caution regarding the president\u2019s pledge.<\/p>\n<p>After Trump pledged to help Americans economically, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent spoke on ABC News\u2019\u00a0<em>This Week with George Stephanopoulos<\/em>\u00a0about the $2,000. While he didn\u2019t provide any details, the Treasury Secretary said it might not be a check.<\/p>\n<div id=\"newsner-60a73e028eb2195f331c90490bb427f5\" class=\"newsner-60a73e028eb2195f331c90490bb427f5 newsner-incide_content_once\">\n<div id=\"newsner-215348472\" class=\"newsner-incide_content_once\">\n<div id=\"taboola-mid-article-thumbnails\" class=\"trc_related_container tbl-trecs-container trc_spotlight_widget\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Bessent shared an update last week, saying that working Americans are getting \u201cvery large refunfs\u201d of $1,000 to $2,000 per household early next year. However, in his Wednesday chat with the nation from the White House, Trump shared news that some are getting it earlier.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-donald-trump-pledge-to-give-members-of-the-us-military-a-1-776-check\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Donald Trump pledge to give members of the US military a\u00a0$1,776 check<\/h2>\n<p>In honor of the country\u2019s founding, Trump announced that members of the United States military will receive a $1,776 check. He called the payment the \u201cWarrior Dividend.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c1,450,000 military service members will receive a special, we call, warrior dividend before Christmas. A warrior dividend. In honor of our nation\u2019s founding in 1776, we are sending every soldier $1,776,\u201d Trump said in his televised address to the nation, adding that \u201cchecks are already on the way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The president credited the tariffs for making it possible. But he didn\u2019t provide precise details on how the \u201cWarrior Dividend\u201d initiative will be funded.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe made a lot more money than anybody thought because of tariffs, and the bill helped us along. Nobody deserves it more than our military, and I say congratulations to everybody,\u201d Trump said.<\/p>\n<p>Per\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2025\/12\/17\/politics\/warrior-dividend-1776-military\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">CNN<\/a>, a senior administration official revealed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth directed the Pentagon to pay out $2.6 billion as a \u201cone-time basic allowance for housing supplement to all eligible service members in pay grades O-6 and below.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The official said that roughly 1.28 million Active Component military members, as well as 174,000 Reserve Component military members, will receive the dividend.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-ongoing-commitment-to-improving-the-housing-and-quality-of-life-for-our-military-members\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u201cOngoing commitment to improving the housing and quality of life for our military members\u201d<\/h2>\n<p>Congress appropriated $2.9 billion to the Department of War, later rebranded the Department of War, this summer, to supplement the Basic Allowance for Housing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis one-time payment exemplifies the Department\u2019s ongoing commitment to improving the housing and quality of life for our military members and their families,\u201d the official told CNN.<\/p>\n<p>The money will come in handy in time for the holidays, as many struggle with inflation. However, that, according to Trump, is still former President Joe Biden\u2019s fault. His 19-minute rant also included criticizing Biden for the problems facing the country at the moment, including pharmaceutical prices, rising immigration, and wage stagnation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c11 months ago, I inherited a mess, and I\u2019m fixing it. When I took office, inflation was the worst in 48 years, and some would say in the history of our country, which caused prices to be higher than ever before, making life unaffordable for millions and millions of Americans,\u201d Donald Trump claimed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Give us your thoughts on Trump\u2019s speech in the comment section.
