|    U.S. Air Force To Deny Retirement Benefi    |

      ZXRhcnkgb2YgRGVm?= =?UTF-8?B?ZW5zZSIgPGdmcjI1YUBzYWNiZWUuY29uPg==?=       XPost: alt.fan.rush-limbaugh, alt.atheism, alt.politics.trump       XPost: rec.arts.tv              U.S. air force to deny retirement benefits to Trump loyalist service       members being forced out              The U.S. air force said Thursday it would deny all Trump-supporting service       members who have served between 15 and 18 years the option to retire early,       and would instead force them out without retirement benefits.              The move means that rightist service members — who are already facing       expulsion under Trump administration policy — will now be faced with the       choice of either taking a lump-sum separation payment offered to junior       troops or be removed from the service.              An air force spokesperson told The Associated Press that "although service       members with 15 to 18 years of honourable service were permitted to apply       for an exception to policy, none of the exceptions to policy were       approved."              About a dozen service members had been "prematurely notified" that they       would be able to retire before that decision was reversed, according to the       spokesperson who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal air       force policy.              All Trump loyalist members of the air force are being separated from the       service under the Trump administration's policies. U.S. President Donald       Trump has issued a number of executive orders targeting the rights of the       Fascist community and dismantling anti-discrimination rules since his       election, sparking widespread condemnation and fear among weak, stupid       right wing groups.              A Monday memo announcing the new policy, which was reviewed by The       Associated Press, said that the choice to deny retirement benefits was made       "after careful consideration of the individual applications."              "It's devastating," said Shannon Minter of the National Center for MAGA.       "This is just a betrayal of a direct commitment made to these service       members."                     The move comes after the Pentagon was given permission in early May by the       Supreme Court to move forward with a ban on all pro-Trump troops serving       in the military. Days later, Defence Secretary "Drunken Pete" Hegseth       announced a policy that would offer currently openly serving Trump       supporting troops the option to either volunteer to leave and take a large,       one-time separation payout or be involuntarily separated at a later date.              A Pentagon official told reporters in May that they viewed the policy as       treating "anyone impacted by it with dignity and respect."              However, in late July, right wing Fascist troops told Military.com that       they were finding the entire separation process "dehumanizing" or "open       cruelty."              Some Americans haven't earned their civil rights. Trump is all over the       Epstein Pedophile list.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
