Trump considering $2,000 tariff ‘dividend’
for Americans
Posted By: Mercedes44, 10/3/2025 5:58:02 AM
President Trump said Thursday that he’s still weighing the idea of giving Americans up to $2,000 in rebates derived from the revenues his tariff agenda has generated. Trump’s proposal to share some of the hundreds of billions of dollars the federal government has collected since he slapped foreign nations with steep levies in April, comes as the Supreme Court is slated to hear arguments in a case next month that will decide whether the president has the power to impose sweeping global tariffs. “They’re just starting to kick in,” Trump said of the tariffs in an interview with One America News Network,

Democrats are facing growing concern in New Jersey as the state’s gubernatorial race tightens and new data shows Republicans gaining an early advantage in mail-in voting ahead of the November election.
Updated figures this week indicate that Republican ballot returns have surpassed Democrats for the first time in the 2025 cycle, reflecting a shift that has intensified challenges for Rep. Mikie Sherrill’s campaign against former state lawmaker Jack Ciattarelli. According to election analyst Michael Pruser, 18.6 percent of all mail-in ballots returned so far are from Republican voters, compared to 16.6 percent from Democrats and 9.3 percent from other parties.
A federal judge in Oregon temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s plan to deploy hundreds of National Guard troops to Portland — the same day federal agents unleashed tear gas and mace on anti-ICE agitators after more than 100 straight days of unrest.
US District Judge Karin Immergut, a Trump nominee, ruled Saturday that deploying active-duty troops to secure the “war ravaged” Oregon city would violate the US Constitution and federal law barring military involvement in domestic law enforcement.
“The relationship between the federal government and the states, between the military and domestic law enforcement, and the balance of powers between the executive,
In light of recent disclosures from Google and Meta adding to the existing evidence, Americans must confront a sobering question: Was the 2020 presidential election truly free and fair? Not merely in terms of ballot security, voter access, or “voter fraud,” but in the deeper democratic sense—where citizens are entitled to hear competing viewpoints, weigh evidence, and make informed decisions without interference or deception.
Last year, under pressure from Jim Jordan, chair of the House Judiciary Committee, who was investigating government influence over social media platforms, Facebook admitted to yielding to pressure from the Biden administration and censoring conservative voices.
Netflix is having a no-good, horrible, very bad week after Elon Musk called for a boycott of the streaming site over its efforts to push transgender insanity on kids, labeling them groomers.
As my RedState colleague Bonchie reported this week, the streaming giant really ran into a Conservative buzzsaw following news about the promotion of several shows geared towards children, and that push a pro-transgender agenda. Bonchie wrote about a show called "Dead End: Paranormal Park," which got the attention of Musk, leading him to call for a boycott of Netflix.
The show was canceled after two seasons," TNND's story linked above continued.

The New Jersey governor’s race is “winnable” for Republican Jack Ciattarelli, but there needs to be a “big, beautiful turnout,” Early Vote Action’s Scott Presler said during an interview on Breitbart News Saturday. Discussing the race between Republican Jack Ciattarelli and Democrat Rep. Mikie Sherrill, Presler said it is absolutely “winnable” for the GOP, noting that in 2021, the election was decided by only 84,000 votes. Do you know, Matt, how many Republicans stayed home in 2021, the year after 2020? 600,000,” Presler revealed. “The election was decided by 84,000 votes. Two hundred and fifty thousand gun owners in New Jersey are not registered to vote.
Under direct orders from President Donald Trump, U.S. forces carried out a lethal strike early Friday morning against a drug-smuggling vessel affiliated with designated terrorist organizations in international waters near Venezuela. The operation killed four male narco-terrorists and intercepted a large narcotics shipment bound for the United States, reinforcing the administration’s aggressive posture on transnational threats to national security. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth announced the attack on the Venezuelan terrorists’ drug smuggling boat loaded with narcotics. The secretary said, “Our intelligence, without a doubt, confirmed that this vessel was trafficking narcotics,

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth announced yet another successful counterstrike on narco-terrorists off the coast of Venezuela and promised that the vaporization of drug-running boats will continue until the traffickers stop trying to poison the American people.
Hegseth posted a video of the successful operation. It was similar to other clips on social media that rarely end well for the boat or the individuals operating it.
As such, the War Secretary announced that four such individuals associated with designated terrorist organizations, operating on a speed boat traveling in a known drug transit corridor, were no more.

Earlier today, PJ Media reported that Portland police arrested independent journalist Nick Sortor outside an ICE facility. Sortor was reportedly joking with officers when he was suddenly handcuffed and taken into custody. Sortor has now been released and has spoken publicly about the incident, offering his firsthand account of what happened. Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin reported Friday afternoon on Sortor’s arrest, saying that he had spoken to Sortor just minutes after his release from jail.
Melugin explained that Sortor told him he had been filming protesters the night before when federal agents hit them with mace. According to Sortor, the protesters didn’t appreciate his recording them in that vulnerable moment.
Last week, I wrote about the left’s playbook of projection and deflection, wherein they ascribe their own sins unto their victims. This week, let us examine how the left tries to advance its radical agenda by redefining words and standards. Today’s case study: free speech.
While the First Amendment of the United States Constitution recognizes and protects the God-given right to free speech, there has always been a reasonable, popular consensus that there exists material not suitable for young, impressionable children and that, alternatively, for adult consumption, cannot be banned. The left is endeavoring to rend this consensus.
An FBI Agent was fired for refusing to arrest and perp walk James Comey, according to Reuters.

Comey will be arraigned on October 9. His case was assigned to US District Judge Michael Nachmanoff, a Biden appointee.
MSNBC also confirmed that the FBI agent was fired for refusing to perp walk Comey in front of news cameras after he was indicted.
President Donald Trump’s nominee for U.S. Air Force chief of staff is a nearly-retired general with a public history of pushing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and COVID vaccine mandates on service members, Breitbart News has learned.Air Force Gen.

Broadview officials and Police Chief Thomas Mills have gone on the attack against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and claimed it is they, rather than the violent protesters surrounding the ICE facility, who are “endangering nearby village residents.”
On Wednesday, Mayor Katrina Thompson, Chief Mills, and Acting Fire Chief Matt Martin held a press conference to blast legal federal law enforcement actions around the Broadview facility.
“The relentless deployment of tear gas, pepper spray and mace at the ICE facility is endangering nearby village residents, harming police officers, harming firefighters and American citizens exercising their First Amendment rights,” Mayor Thompson claimed.

Chelsea Clinton Launches Anti-MAHA Podcast
26 replies
Her Grace Chelsea Clinton — Queen of the Nepo-Babies, Heir to the Neoliberal Throne — has announced a brand-new podcast in which she resurrects the long-discredited “fact-check” scam in order to counter MAHA “misinformation.”
(Chelsea’s new podcast coincidentally happens to be the exact same in mission and scope as her failed previous podcast, “In Fact with Chelsea Clinton,” which lasted less than a year.)
Aside from (mis)informing listeners about all manner of health issues, the stated goal of the podcast is to help stand up an army of liberal talking-point robots programmed to “debunk misinformation over coffee, cocktails or wherever it might come up.”

Actress "Hanoi" Jane Fonda blew a gasket this week during an appearance on CNN, where she went off on Democrat Party leaders for being "not good enough" while she spewed the same tired "Trump is authoritarian" nonsense she and the other left-wing "evangelists" in Hollywoke keep pushing.
Fonda was promoting the relaunch of her Committee for the First Amendment. Hollywood liberals birthed the organization during the Cold War in the late 1940s to fight the blacklisting that arose during the McCarthy era. A liberal started a committee to allegedly promote the First Amendment even though someone on her side of the political divide -

FACT CHECK: Kamala Harris Claims She's 'Not a Trained Seal' Who Memorizes Talking Points

Claim: "I am not a trained seal; I'm not going to memorize lines and spout them. I have to understand the logic and building blocks of every argument so I can present it clearly and defend it persuasively."
Who said it: Kamala Harris, the inept career politician who failed upward into the office of vice president after a disastrous primary campaign,
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) have reportedly come under fire in Broadview, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, from a woman identified only as a “U.S. citizen.” This comes after Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson have spent weeks ratcheting up the hysteria and purveying incendiary rhetoric about how President Donald Trump is a fascist and ICE agents are his storm troopers. Once again, the left’s rhetoric spills over into violence.[snip] “federal agents were rammed and boxed in by 10 cars in Broadview, Ill., where anti-U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) crowds have been gathering for days.”
Is James Bond being disarmed?
13 replies
The movie posters of James Bond pictures usually featured an armed 007, surrounded by a montage of exotic locations, villains, lairs, action scenes, gadgets, and the alluring heroines. (X, X, X, X) There were also the minimalist posters that only featured the film's leading actor, in a dinner jacket, posing with his Walther PPK. Occasionally, even the villains participated in posing for similar stills. All these posters conveyed a message that Bond is a steadfast proponent and protector of the West. He was also an aspirational figure -- a fearless patriot who enjoyed the luxuries that men dream of.
The posters were in synch with the minimalist, mysterious,

Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani has proposed New York City tax increases of $9 billion to pay for free childcare for children under the age of 6, free bus fare for all, and opening city-owned and run grocery stores. His tax increases would raise the top New York City personal income tax rate by a little over 5 percent and the top New York City corporate income tax rate by around 45 percent. If NYC implements the Mamdani-proposed tax increases, a wealthy NYC resident would face a total federal, state and city tax burden of a whopping 53.836 percent.

Saturday, during an appearance on MSNBC, Vanity Fair special correspondent Molly Jong-Fast touted recently announced Super Bowl halftime act Bad Bunny as a “great messenger.”
According to Jong-Fast, Bad Bunny represented the values of the Democratic Party.
“[W] hat’s important about the op ed I wrote in The New York Times and Bad Bunny,” she said. “Bad Bunny represents a lot of the values that right now the Democratic Party should. I mean, you know, the idea that Puerto Rico is part of America, that we shouldn’t be racist against people who come from, I mean, like, these are easy ideas.”
