FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Badlands, ND — December 18, 2025—Today, in response to recent claims by former President Donald Trump taking credit for the military bonus that was already approved by Congress, our campaign wishes to reiterate the importance of giving credit where it's due. This includes recognizing the efforts of Congress in approving the military bonus.

"Our campaign values the military and their contributions to our country," the candidate stated. "We fully support efforts to provide our brave military personnel with the appropriate benefits, bonuses, and recognition they deserve. This is not about scoring political points; it’s about recognizing the significant sacrifices our servicemen and servicewomen make for our nation."

Our campaign is committed to transparency, honesty, and factual accuracy in politics. We acknowledge and appreciate the role that Congress played in the approval of the military bonus. It is vital to recognize that this decision is a testament to our collective commitment to support our military personnel, and not the achievement of a single individual or party.

"We will continue to pursue policies and initiatives that support our military personnel, veterans, and their families," the candidate added. "This includes a comprehensive legislative package aimed at significantly increasing funding for veterans' healthcare and mental health services, improving the GI Bill benefits for educational opportunities, and ensuring timely access to these benefits."

We remain positive, focusing on our own contributions and future plans for supporting the military. A key part of our campaign is our commitment to pursuing policies that benefit our military personnel, veterans, and their families. We aim to foster an environment where their sacrifices are recognized, their needs are addressed, and their welfare is prioritized.

"Our campaign is built on the values of transparency, honesty, and a steadfast commitment to our servicemen and women," the candidate said. "We will continue to work tirelessly, not to earn political points, but to ensure that our military personnel receive the recognition, benefits, and support they deserve."

We urge our supporters and general voters who value transparency and factual information, as well as active and retired military personnel and their families, to join us in acknowledging the role of Congress in approving the military bonus. We also encourage them to support our campaign, which is committed to the welfare of our military personnel and veterans.

In conclusion, we believe in the importance of providing accurate information and honoring the efforts of all parties involved. We are committed to supporting our military personnel and will continue to advocate for policies that uphold their welfare and dignity.

Stay informed. Stay involved.
