Are $2,000 Stimulus Checks Coming? Trump’s Tariff ‘Dividend’ Plan, Supreme Court Risks, and What Michiganders Should Know (Nov. 11, 2025)

Updated November 11, 2025 Quick takeaways What exactly did Trump propose? Over the weekend and again on Monday, President Trump promoted the idea of paying Americans a $2,000 per-person “dividend” funded by tariff receipts, with high‑income earners excluded.

Supreme Court Tariff Showdown: Trump’s Trillion-Dollar Trade Gamble Meets Skeptical Justices

In sum, the Supreme Court appears poised to make a definitive ruling on Trump’s tariff gambit – one that will either vindicate his bold use of emergency power or slam the brakes on it.
