Warrior Dividends for American Soldiers: Donald Trump Announces USD 1,776 Christmas 2025 Bonus for US Army Service Members (Watch Video)

US President Donald Trump has announced the introduction of “Warrior Dividends”, under which around 1.4 million US service members will receive a non-taxable lump-sum payment of USD 1,776 before Christmas 2025. The President said the payout was made possible by revenue generated from tariffs and the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill”, and would be distributed among serving personnel. Trump added that the amount of USD 1,776 was chosen in honour of the nation’s founding year, 1776. He further claimed that the country had generated significant revenue due to tariffs, enabling the government to offer this financial benefit to service members.
