It implies they are being punished because they were not given permission to "help and aid those in trouble or with difficulty because of the shooting" including DJ Trump. But the truth is, their department is asserting that they did not have permission to be there on duty at the rally and assist at the rally in the first place. (They failed to submit the correct paperwork and so were there without authorization.)
It's still bogus, and suspect, and stinks, but the notion that they got transferred because "they helped people without permission" is false and fake news, clickbait by the X OP, imo. Sadly. I mean, clicks sell, I guess, but its misleading.
Sources told Chief Investigator Rick Earle that those cycle officers were asked to assist with the Former President’s motorcade to that rally in Butler County on Saturday.
According to Earle’s sources, the officers claim they notified the proper personnel with the Pittsburgh Bureau of Police and received authorization to help, but according to the same sources, the bureau said they didn’t get permission.
The headline is misleading.

And we all know people in authority would never lie about something like having the proper paperwork in place...
Oh, I fully expect that the 'people in authority' may well have lied here. The only issue I have is with the misleading clickbait-ish style headline.
Yeah, also not a fan of clicky headlines.
