It isn’t Ai, it’s a copypasta from a website, I added the source link when I posted it from where I copied pasted from. Go check for yourself instead of accusations maybe? But I hear you, it’s the way of the internet now, just proclaim random bullshit…
1. How the federal baseline creates a nationwide foundation — and what it covers
Federal law defines the uniform base pay and reserve drill pay that apply to National Guard soldiers when they are under federal status or performing federal drills and mobilizations; this baseline is updated year-to-year through military pay charts such as the 2025 and 2026 tables documenting paygrade and years-of-service increases. These federal charts determine pay for standard drills, active duty for training, and federal mobilizations, and they produce predictable, nationwide compensation calculations for those duty statuses, but they do not account for state-authorized supplements or state active-duty pay arrangements that alter what an individual Guard member ultimately receives [1] [2].
2. Where the variation occurs — state active duty and state supplements explained
States can place Guard members on state active duty for domestic missions and emergencies and can set pay rates and bonuses for those periods independently of federal pay rules, with some states offering higher per-day rates or supplementary payments to retain members and respond to local crises. Reporting shows that states like Maryland and Iowa have used state active-duty pay or back-pay mechanisms to increase compensation for Guardsmen during state missions, creating substantial disparitiesbetween states depending on budget choices, statutory authority, and policy priorities [3] [5].
3. Special pay rules and the federal-state split that produces complexity
Certain special pays and federally managed entitlements apply only when service members are under federal status; those benefits do not automatically transfer to state active-duty tours, leading to instances where state-paid Guardsmen receive less or different kinds of compensation for similar duties. The Army Benefits guidance and Defense Finance and Accounting Service documentation clarify that federal special pays are distinct from state compensation, thereby producing situations where a Guardsman’s benefits and incentives depend on the legal status of their duty — federal versus state [4].
4. Concrete examples showing how states can raise or delay pay — lessons from Iowa and Maryland
Historical and recent examples indicate states sometimes supplement or retroactively correct Guard pay. Iowa’s legislative action and federal Defense Authorization responses addressed back pay for extended deployments, while Maryland’s policy changes illustrate how states can increase pay for state-active missions to improve retention. These cases show that state political choices, legislative fixes, and budget authorizationsmaterially affect some Guardsmen’s earnings and that remedies have sometimes required federal or state legislative action [5] [3].

Except founding fathers specifically warned of the president doing this without actual real need and temporary measures. The constitution forbids what this administration wants to do and that’s the point, he wants to do things the constitution doesn’t allow him to do; and once he can overstep the document and the Supreme Court allows it, he can dismantle it completely and ignore all of it, and all citizens citizenry and rights are a favor of the king. The constitution is only as strong as its weakest least defended amendments.
It’s paying the soldiers, if he gets the Feds to do it, the Feds pay for it with federal tax money, u know blue state money. Then the dems pay to mow their lawns n stuff and they get the credit
Yes. Just before a shutdown again he called a recess early to avoid the Epstein files being released.
Ahahahaha, loser can’t respond because he isn’t allowed to disagree with his dear leader or he goes to jail. Hahaha
Oh ok you want to talk about starving huh? How many people did Stalin starve to death?
https://www.history.com/articles/ukrainian-famine-stalin
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_famine_of_1930%E2%80%931933
What was it like 11 or 12 million starved to death, and 60-70 million starved but survived? Hah, go on, tell me how many Americans are starving… Should we even bother going into Nicholas II and the 30 million he starved too? How about the Russian 90’s should we talk about the starving in Russia then? How about the starving Russian troops in Ukraine?

When throwing rocks inside a glass house… hah
So stop faking them then freak. Don’t know what your on about Reddit, but ok… oh look, not a single substance response again, I’m noticing a pattern. So no running water ever huh? And if Putin said it, as Stalin surely did than I guess it would have to be true since you can’t disagree publicly. Hahaha
Everywhere else is authoritarian but I can’t publicly disagree with the old grandpa. Makes sense.
So what did Stalin say again about lend lease? And how many people did he kill? And what did he do to the Jewish population in Russia? And how many people did the Czars kill?
Oh no, could it be there’s a reason for the edit button!? The horror! Don’t act like you haven’t been editing post directly after posting too guy. So what did Stalin say about it? Because if Putin were to say the same thing, right now you’d have to agree publicly or be jailed. So go on, what did Stalin say? Because you know in Russia only one opinion matters, and the guys who mattered at the time of WW2 said what I said he said. The guy who wrote that book was never my leader. Back to the outhouse to think again for you, lucky it isn’t winter I guess. Tell me, when will you guys figure out running water? Take a break and inject some of that famous Russian mephedrone or Krokodil while you’re out there to ponder your shit life in Russia before dear leader sends you to meat wave in Ukraine, you waste of oxygen.
p.S. I bet you do love it, you silly weirdo, but no thank you, I have no reason for rage, I’m very comfy with no missiles or bombs of war hitting my country, careful, I hear they throw your kind talking all that love stuff to guys off roofs in Russia, soo free…
Aww look at you using multiple accounts to give yourself extra votes, so Russian of you. Your Dear Leader would be proud. Gold trophy for you. What a loser.
It’s from 4 decades later guy, what did Stalin say at the time you disgusting waste of human life? Go ponder over that while you use your outhouse you backwoods Krokodil addict. Stop melting your brain with that mephedrone Boris. Let me know when your vote is actually counted you dirty dress-up trollop. You’ll have the same President forever because you have no rights. Go complain about your dear leader in public, go hold a sign bad mouthing him. Oh right you can’t. If you did they’d send you to a Siberian prison to die like they did Navalny. Go on and tell the world how everyone else is the fascist again.
And what did your dictator at the time say? Do tell crybaby? I don’t care what whatever book you’re claiming to be from the US says. I know what Stalin PERSONALLY said though.
But sure keep telling me what some brigadier general said from a publication 4 decades later. That book was published in the 80’s. Hahaha
Ahahaha, u mad bro? Your country killed more people than Nazi Germany, and it was actually formed and voted into power to reject Russian Communism to begin with. My shithole country is the reason with lend lease that you’re not speaking German you dirty revisionist.
That’s what Stalin said, direct quote “without machines from lend lease we would have lost the war.” That’s right guy, lend lease from the US saved you and your country. Cry me a river.
Haha, keep selling that bullshit there Goebbels Jr. The truth hurts apparently, suck it up buttercup.
What in the absolute fu@k are you on about? Because some random writer had some moronic views you could find online, you believe what? That’s some type of American rule of law? You’re the walking embodiment of propaganda, Joseph Goebbels would be proud of the bullshit you spew. Oh wow you found someone who says America bad because of many years ago and its history, and racial treatments to people, now how many are there that say Russia bad? How about the Czars treatment of other Asian counties or Europe’s citizens? How about how Stalin treated the Jewish people of Russia? Your whole entire world view is made up bullshit based off cherry-picked readings. You’re the walking embodiment of what we call a douche bag.
The Holodomor, The Red Terror of the Bolsheviks, Stalins Gulags, Ivan the Terrible, and on and on… Yeah sure America’s history is so much worse, haha, you’re a clown.

Oh look a Russian Fascist party
Who is angry? Where am I being angry? Again, stop going off topic, and reply any substance to the discussion at all, but you can’t because you know I’m right. Cry me a river girl. How many accounts are you using to upvote your own post? Because u or be said nothing but empty insults that make no sense to the discussion. You bring absolutely nothing new to the conversation but name calling and nonsensical unrelated accusations because your entire argument is based off trying to change the direction of a conversation.
At any point feel free to respond to anything about your country being fascist and having a dictator, or any of the things I’ve said above about your country, but you never will because your entire state of being here is propaganda and nonsense. Ohh you’re angry, what a response, such a wonderful honest debater. More like a dishonest masterbater if you ask me.
Of course nothing of substance to say, just ridiculous attacking of character, as usual. Good luck when you get sent to die in meat waves in Ukraine pal. Maybe your family will get a washing machine or maybe a hog for your efforts. Or you could always steal washing machine and maybe a toilet from Ukraine to send home, check around all the hospitals and children’s schools you guys bombed, you may have some luck. If you can get off the vodka, krokodil or mephedrone long enough to know where you are, of course. Meow meow Boris. Even Prigozhin started to understand what’s actually the reality in your homeland, but you fools just love claiming we’re non political, and don’t know anything. Because say it with me, you’ll be thrown in a cell if you publicly disagree with your dictator. But, yeah sure everywhere else is fascist.
Entire books on what? The US being fascist? Ok guy… gtfo, gold star for propaganda. There’s whole books written about how your country is now a dictatorship with a president who fakes elections and all they do is throw dissenters out of windows. Random fash, lol wow, you really got me there weirdo. How is Alexei Navalny doing in that super not a fascist country of yours? Maybe you guys will find someplace new to contaminate with radiation while trying to poison more people who disagree with your totally democratically elected leader. Tell me, are you guys still throwing people in prison to rot for putting antiwar stickers in supermarkets or protesting while holding up blank sheets of paper? How very free of you.
Oh wow a shitty website has an article. Proof of absolutely nothing, congrats on that Ivan. Wtf is counterpunch? lol real reputable guy… Let me know when your president can’t change the constitution at will to serve for a lifetime.
Sad what’s happening to the US, and the guys followers are so far gone they’ll now claim this is exactly what I voted for, and they will keep repeating that all the way through the first they came for the illegal immigrants and those applying for asylum and I’m not an illegal immigrant or applying for asylum so I cheered it, then they came for…. Until they get all the way to …now they’re at the door for me, and there is no one left to stand for me.
Those who will never see war in person sure like to push for more war.
Anything but the Epstein files… There must be some really juicy stuff in there.
I agree with that
