He's floated sending $2,000 checks to every household, "except rich ones," whatever that means, financed by tariff revenues.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.
