FOX News contributor James Fishback believes the DOGE Dividend will be paid out soon:

In fact it was Fishback who proposed the refund on X and tagging Elon Musk. Elon responded to the tweet by saying. "Will check with the President".

The idea is to use 20% of the money saved by DOGE and return it to taxpaying Americans. That would work out to around $5,000 per American taxpayer.

Musk had this to say in a recent interview with Sean Hannity:

The overall goal is to try to get a trillion dollars out of the deficit, if the deficit is not brought under control, America will go bankrupt.

 

This is a very important thing for people to understand. A country is no different from an individual, in that if an individual overspends, an individual can go bankrupt. And so can a country," he said. "And the massive waste, fraud and abuse that has been going on, which is leading to a $2 trillion a year deficit.

 

Who will get a check from DOGE?

If President Trump decides to use some of the money saved by DOGE to return it to USA residents, it will go to individuals that pay taxes.

There has been no official announcement of a DOGE Dividend, so currently the parameters of the refund are not known at this time.
