President Trump is considering sending every American a $5000 check called “The DOGE Dividend.” How can Democrats fight this one?
President Trump’s DOGE Dividend proposal—redirecting 20% of federal savings to taxpayers and 20% to debt reduction—exposes how D.C. bureaucrats hoard your money while claiming poverty. Critics like Jessica Riedl mock the $5,000 checks as “half off a coffee,” but they ignore the real issue: trillions wasted on bloated agencies and ideological scams.
The plan incentivizes Americans to report waste, cutting through the red tape that protects corrupt contracts and failed programs. Democrats will fight it tooth and nail because it threatens their grip on taxpayer cash. They’d rather fund foreign handouts and woke projects than let Americans keep their own money.
The DOGE Dividend isn’t just a refund—it’s a reckoning for Washington’s grift machine.
My problem is with the OTHER 60%.
How do you dramatically downsize the Feds if you are redirecting 60% of the “savings” into spending somewhere else?
Like manned missions to Mars.
Fine as rhetoric.
But no rebate checks until DC swears off debt ceiling hikes.
