This sounds more like a scheme to abandon Taiwan than to make America great.
Lutnick: "The objective is to bring 40% of Taiwan's entire supply chain and production, to domestically bring it in to America during President Trump's term. This is fire right now. This is it. We're gonna break ground. If they don't build in America, the tariffs is likely to be 100%"

Agreed. Please call your senators and tell them so.
Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.
