Biden locks in $6.6B for TSMC chip factories, ensuring Trump can't rescind CHIPS Act deal!

WASHINGTON – The Biden administration has finalized a $6.6 billion award for the Taiwan semiconductor giant that is building massive factories in Phoenix, amid concerns President-elect Donald Trump will derail subsidies aimed at fostering the domestic chip industry.

“This is a gigantic announcement,” Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo told reporters on a call ahead of the announcement early Friday, 10 days after Trump’s election.

“This will be one of the most important investments that we make as a country to advance our economic and national security,” she said.

believe it and Faux will report it and there will be very little push back.

It would also be nice if there were signs at the Phoenix factories stating clearly who brought you this as well as going on local news and reporting it before the next guy comes in but dems don’t like to brag.

The minds of the masses will be controlled.

Sarcasm?
