MSM: This money was already allocated months ago. Trump taking credit for Biden again!

They've been increasing their investment here for a long time to the tune of roughly 100 billion extra per year lately. I think last year they were up to 725 billion. So 1 trillion over time is very much on the horizon

The Left will never see this or believe it and continue to complain.

Biden literally did nothing like this.

I mean to be fair, the deals that Mexico and Canada made to us over the tariffs were announced last year and just reiterated. Nonetheless, bring that bread here

Hopefully Ishiba is another Abe.

When I was growing up, Great Britain was America's greatest ally, but sadly Angela Merkel and others have basically destroyed Europe. I think Japan is our #1 ally right now.

Japan and Australia used to be our two most "ride or die" allies. Australia fell off the progressive cliff. No reason to not shore up and increase relations and cooperation with Japan.

There is a big difference in announcing something and implementing it. Canada never intended to go thru with any border security upgrades. If Kamala won, it would be completely forgotten now.

1. Does this mean the Nippon-US Steel deal is going through?

2. Does this mean that Nissan isn't going to turn its factory in Canton Ms into an EV factory which would end up being gutted or shut down in less than 18 months?

I second the motion. Is Avondale Shipyard still for sale? Seriously, the decline in American shipbuilding does not get enough attention from the media, "experts," etc but it is really a national security issue that needs to be addressed.

If that’s what you want to go with, cool. But they did the same thing months ago. We have no prove (yet) that they’ve actually implemented anything (which can be said about a lot of what’s been going on outside of DOGE and a few things). Announcements mean nothing
