Donald Trump proposes $2,000 dividend checks for all Americans via "True Social," framing opponents of tariffs as fools amidst record stock markets and negligible inflation. This announcement coincides with a government shutdown ending after Democrats allegedly caved to Republican demands to cut SNAP benefits, ACA subsidies, and federal employment, despite Regan's claim that Democrats were uninvolved in these reductions. The segment further predicts Chuck Schumer's political demise and notes Trump's billion-dollar lawsuit against the BBC regarding its ousted NBC CEO, suggesting a broader strategy of economic populism paired with aggressive legal and political maneuvers to reshape the national landscape.

Republicans Gutting Dividends00:02:00
Welcome to the big show, everyone.
Gosh, I mean, this may be our biggest start yet.
I'm looking at so many people tuning in.
Clearly, this is an important topic and something that I think is resonating with everyone as I look at all these likes before we even get started.
Welcome, as I said, to the big show.
I am Trish Regan.
It's Trish Regan's show.
We get a lot to get to.
Checks in the mail, so they say.
Find out if you're going to qualify for this as Donald Trump floats the idea.
Not floating.
He's saying he wants it.
This is on his agenda.
It's like top of his list.
It's amazing to me that actually the mainstream media is really ignoring this one.
I guess they they probably don't like it because they think it's going to be popular with the folks, so to speak.
So they're kind of ignoring it.
Anyway, he put this out on True Social over the weekend.
We're going to get into the details.
It all comes as we look at an end, an end in sight to that shutdown.
It's because the Democrats caved and woo, is this creating some commotion internally, including at The View?
Chuck Schumer, watch out.
Son, he's coming for you.
This was a choice by Republicans to cut SNAP benefits.
This was a choice by Republicans to cut ACA subsidies.
This was a choice by the Republicans to gut.
the federal government and federal employment.
Democrats had nothing to do with it.
They just caved and surrendered.
I think Chuck Schumer, his days are over.
Oh, wow.
Do you really say so, Sonny?
I don't know.
I mean, if you say so, I thought his days were over a while ago.
We shall see.
Plus, the BBC is in all kinds of trouble.
It's getting big play in Europe right now.
My colleague from 76 Research is overseas and he says dominating the headlines.
Listen, the top dogs are out, including the woman who used to be president of NBC who Miraculously became CEO of BBC and is now out of a job because of some really unbelievable editing.
Donald Trump's not having it.
He's suing for a billion dollars.
Welcome, as I said, to the program.
And we begin today's show on the very, very big news.
Donald Trump wants dividend checks for everyone.
BBC CEO Out of Job00:00:19
Checks in the mail, as they say, announcing a $2,000 rebate or tariff dividend check over the weekend.
Here he writes.
People that are against tariffs are fools.
We are the richest, most respected country in the world with almost no inflation and a record stock market price.
