Replying to @GlobalFoundries
@GlobalFoundries and @commercegov have announced an award of up to $1.5 billion in direct funding: capitalregionchamber.com/new… The award will support three projects that, in aggregate, represent more than $13 billion of investment over the next 10-plus years across GF’s two U.S. sites. Combined, these investments are expected to create close to 1,000 direct manufacturing jobs and more than 9,000 construction jobs over the life of these projects. #CapitalRegionUnited

By investing in GF’s domestic manufacturing capabilities, we are helping to secure a stable domestic supply of chips that are found in everything from home electronics to advanced weapons systems.

This is important. Voters didn’t vote against Kamala’s actual positions. They voted against the made up positions social media fed them. Reality is increasingly irrelevant to elections.
83% of voters who broke for Trump in the final days think Harris and the Democrats support using taxpayer dollars to pay for transgender surgeries for undocumented immigrants in prison. 77% believe Democrats support allow minors to transition genders without informing parents.

Trump picks incompetent loyalists for his Cabinet, and @CNN leads with "In Bold Move, Trump Picks Unorthodox Staff." The media is the problem. They helped him get elected and they are covering for him now.

Amazing idea to break up an alliance that has kept the West safe for 80 years after two World Wars, and fulfill Putin’s lifelong dream, because the EU is being mean to Elon.

On the train to Albany, NY for the first time ever. All this experience has done has made me want more trains and high speed rail. It’s been a great trip and a convenient experience so I didn’t give up 4 hours of work driving.

If Harris wins North Carolina, it shuts Trump the fuck up early. North Carolina, you know what to do.

This is what a half-empty Trump rally looks like in Reading, Penn., a day before Election Day.

Stunning if you think about it. Like bank robbers being put in charge of the vault. No law against it, but an effrontery to the electoral system.

Under Donald Trump, we lost 2.7 million jobs. If Trump wins this thing again, they've promised to repeal the CHIPS and Science Act — threatening over 115,000 manufacturing and construction jobs. This guy doesn't care about you. He's not thinking about you at all.

And, just like that, before we even saw the pleadings, a court ruled against the GOP effort here. But remember, all of these meritless cases are being filed in an effort to create a narrative of voter fraud to support Trump's post-election efforts. Do not be deceived.

I miss the Grand Old Party (GOP) and long for the day when we can return to healthy and principled partisan debates. (We idealistic hippies sometimes need to be reined in by practical conservatism.) But this election is different… and much deeper than D versus R and left versus right. It’s a clear choice, and the survival of our democracy is on the line. The world needs not the chaos of Trump but the stability of Kamala Harris. The world needs America.
