Everything indicates that the editorial line of many media outlets in the United States is not to take their finger off the pulse regarding the increasingly unlikely possibility of the existence of a payment of the so-called 'DOGE Dividend', which could be dispersed among the entire population of the United States.
"The dividend is feasible"
Occasionally, as in a recent interview in April with Chris Cuomo, the main promoter of the idea, Azoria investment firm CEO James Fishback, invariably appears to claim that the dispersal of resources is feasible.
Such resources would come from the savings of the Donald Trump istration's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), headed by Elon Musk, after slimming down the U.S. bureaucracy through an effective budget-cutting campaign that is bringing savings to the federal istration, not by two trillion dollars as initially said, but by $155 billion at the time.
If this dividend were to be paid at this time, it could contribute a total of $800 or a maximum of $1,000 per taxpayer, still far from the $5,000 promised. However, this is not a race against what is collected, but against time, as DOGE is scheduled to operate until July 4, 2026.
The steps that have not been taken
And it is also a legislative struggle, as to date there is still no formal proposal in Congress, so the outlook still looks unpromising, despite what Fishback says, who continues to claim that the DOGE Dividend is possible: "Yes, I really do think it will become a reality and I have unique information because I've been on Capitol Hill for the last two weeks, meeting with of the House and Senate."
Fishback claims to have the of President Donald Trump, government special agent Elon Musk and economist Kevin Hassett, director of the National Economic Council, but the reality is that there is still nothing concrete.
