Trump Sends Out More Tariff Check Scam Emails

Recipients are asked to confirm nonexistent checks with donation forms

The Trump/Vance campaign sent yet another deceptive fundraising email on January 10 and again on January 12, recycling the same message that falsely suggests recipients are owed a personal “tariff check.”

The email’s subject line is “Before I sign your check”, but the message then claims the recipient needs to confirm their name before Trump signs it, alluding to an imminent government payment despite no such checks existing. Trump himself has acknowledged the Supreme Court could overturn his tariff scheme, triggering refunds to American importers.

The appeal is part of a broader pattern: since November, the campaign has sent roughly 20 separate fundraising emails invoking fictional tariff checks.

The messages must be financially beneficial to Trump which means his followers are getting duped.

In audio from the sit-down last week that has since gone viral, Times reporter Katie Rogers asked Trump when Americans could expect to receive the $2,000 checks he had promised, funded “based off of your tariff revenues.”

Trump responded: “I did do that? When did I do that?”

...

Rogers’ colleague Tyler Pager then pressed Trump on the original $2,000 pledge, asking: “When will Americans get those checks?”

Trump replied: “Well, I am going to. The tariff money is so substantial that’s coming in that I’ll be able to do $2,000 sometime, I would say, toward the end of the year.”

...

Earlier in his second term, Trump similarly floated the idea of sending Americans $5,000 dividend checks using public funds saved through spending cuts and job reductions overseen by billionaire Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Those checks are still not in the mail.

Steve Woolford, a resource counselor with the GI Rights Hotline, took the call from the service member he described as having an important role in the approval process for the strikes.

On Monday, The New York Times reported the military used an unmarked aircraft painted to resemble a civilian plane to conduct the first boat strike on Sept. 2. Feigning civilian status to trick adversaries is a war crime known as “perfidy,” banned under both international and U.S. military law, according to the Times.

Such killings are prohibited by law and subject to prosecution in the U.S. military’s justice system.

Trump Thinks 'We Shouldn't Even Have' Midterm Elections

President Donald Trump suggested he's been so successful as president that there's an argument to skip the midterms that may be disastrous for the Republican Party.

This year's elections could see the GOP lose control of the House of Representatives, as happened in Trump's first term, given the slim Republican majority and backlash that is historically directed at the governing party.

In an interview with Reuters published Thursday, the president appeared to acknowledge that heavy losses loom — but signaled political norms shouldn't apply to him.

“It's some deep psychological thing, but when you win the presidency, you don't win the midterms,” Trump told the news agency, before boasting that he had achieved so much that “when you think of it, we shouldn't even have an election.”
