President Donald Trump on Sunday announced that the administration is exploring the possibility of providing $2,000 dividend checks to every American due to record increases in tariff revenue.<\/p>\n
\u201cPeople that are against Tariffs are FOOLS! We are now the Richest, Most Respected Country In the World, With Almost No Inflation, and A Record Stock Market Price,\u201d the president posted on Truth Social.<\/p>\n
\u201c401k\u2019s are Highest EVER. We are taking in Trillions of Dollars and will soon begin paying down our ENORMOUS DEBT, $37 Trillion. Record Investment in the USA, plants and factories going up all over the place,\u201d he continued. \u201cA dividend of at least $2000 a person (not including high income people!) will be paid to everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n
U.S. tariff revenue for the fiscal year 2025, which ended on September 30, totaled $195 billion, marking a more than 250 percent increase from the previous year.<\/p>\n
This accounted for the the highest annual collection in modern history, driven by President Trump\u2019s sweeping tariffs on imports from dozens of trading partners including China. The tariffs were implemented under executive authority such as the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), while the Supreme Court is currently weighing a decision that could curb the president\u2019s ability to levy tariffs.<\/p>\n
This figure encompasses duties collected through September, with monthly revenues climbing from $7 billion in January to $30 billion by September.<\/p>\n
In an August 26 interview, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent predicted that tariff revenue could surge to $300 billion annually as more trade deals are finalized. \u201cWe had a substantial jump from July to August, and I think we\u2019re going to see a bigger jump from August to September. So I think we could be on our way well over half a trillion, maybe towards a trillion-dollar number,\u201d he\u00a0said\u00a0of the fiscal year 2026.<\/p>\n
In addition, this could not be done without Congress, as direct payments to citizens constitute federal spending that requires legislative authorization and appropriation under the US Constitution\u2019s Appropriations Clause, preventing the executive branch from unilaterally disbursing tariff revenues. Such revenues flow into the general Treasury, meaning that targeted rebates or dividends without a specific law, similar to how stimulus checks in prior years needed statutory approval despite emergency declarations.<\/p>\n
It started with a fender bender\u2026 but turned into a full-blown\u00a0temper tantrum<\/em>.<\/p>\n A 40-year-old woman, running late for work, smashed into multiple cars during her frantic rush \u2014 but what happened after the crash has left the internet in disbelief.<\/p>\n Instead of staying calm, she dropped to the ground, kicked, screamed, and cried like a toddler in the middle of traffic. Witnesses were stunned. Drivers couldn\u2019t believe what they were seeing. And when the cops arrived? It got even\u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0The whole meltdown was caught on video.
