Trump Moves to Pay U.S. Troops Despite Schumer’s ‘Radical Left’ Shutdown
"President Donald Trump is taking steps to ensure that U.S. service members receive their paychecks next week despite the ongoing

government shutdown, directing his administration to find and allocate available funds as congressional gridlock threatens military pay.
Trump announced he had ordered Secretary of War Pete Hegseth “to use all available funds to get our Troops PAID on October 15th.” 

He affirmed, “We have identified funds to do this, and Secretary Hegseth will use them to PAY OUR TROOPS.” 

The president emphasized that he would not allow Democrats “to hold our Military, and the entire Security of our Nation, HOSTAGE, with their dangerous Government Shutdown."
