in america.hat's not hyperbole. that's a fact that's going to be made in america. and making these chips in america is gonna create new businesses for countless small manufacturers and suppliers into the supply chain. that's gonna thrive all because of this law. and many of these good paying jobs don't require. as i said, a college degree, it matters all of this is in our economic interests and it's our national security interests as well. earlier this year, i went down to lockheed's factory in alabama where they're making the javelin missiles. that were supplying to ukraine to defend itself against putin's unprovoked war. [applause] folks. i've been able to cut off significant pieces of manufacturing needs that they have to make their weapons, they're not getting from the united states, but that's a different story. we need some conductors not only to make these javelin missiles, but also the weapons systems the future that are going to rely even more on advanced chips. unfortunately, we produce

in india and south africa and of in america. the vast majority of them, at least 30,000, saw service in america. in august 1776, in a german periodical, the deutscher chronicle, the german chronicle noted optimistically that, quote, soon the english would have to thank the germans a second time for the conquest of america. the editor was to william pitt's famous to germany's role in the seven years. for a decade earlier a war that had resulted in france ceding a large of its territorial possessions in north america along several caribbean islands to britain. earlier that 1776 britain's prime lord north had predicted the higher of the german auxiliaries would bring the war which he a speedy resolution quote the further a fusion of blood. neither of these predictions course, as we know now, came true. the steady supply of germans actually helped keep the war going for seven more years. so before i continue, me emphasize that by the late 1770s, early 1780s, one third of the british regular armies strength in north america consisted

our contract with america is. the agenda of the american people, not of the establishment in washington, dc. thank you very much. now, as we prepare to present our last group of presenters, just one comment. for the past year. it's been my great honor as campaigning chair for house republicans to have met these and a thousand men and women who have come forward to run for the house from across this great country on the republican ticket. it is for the first time in history. fact, there are more republicans running for congress than democrats. that's a real message. but ladies and gentlemen, as you can see today, it's not only important that across this great country, a record number have come forward, but as you can see, they are also the best qualified ever in the history of this country, seeking the house of representatives. now a pleasure to present the last group of presenters who will be making the common sense legal reform act presentation led by jim ramstad from minnesota and joined by greg ganske from iowa

america encompasses north america, south america, people in latin america take issue understandably with u.s. sentence referring to ourselves as american we co-opted that phrase. what does history mean? who is in charge of fashioning it whose interpretation of the past we focus on? in the meantime today's lecture is going to be a chance to connect a lot of the dots but we spent learning together everything from the salem witch trials 21619 to gender, religion and war. to use our reading in particular the trio's book silent past in a production history which you are finishing up this week and next, to think about the history of colonial america and how that history is created, and memorialize but not just in site academic circles and books but out in the public. two ways in which the concept of colonial history are popularized in these ways are the subjects of state trent lecture. it would be myths and monuments. i'm going to start sharing my screen. i began the so far so good, we're almost there. i began the course, my introduction introducing you to one of the most critical concepts sin

america encompasses north america, south america, people in latin america. they take issue with the u.s. citizens referring to ourselves as americans. we co-opted that phrase. what does history mean? who is in charge of fashioning? it whose interpretation of the past two we focus on? in the meantime, today's lecture will be a chance to connect a lot of the dots, everything from the salem witch trials, 1619, to gender and religion. we use the reading of the book silence in the past, power in the production of history, which we are finishing up, to think about the history of colonial america and how the history is created and communicated and memorialized, not just inside academic circles and books, but out in the broader public. two ways in which the concepts of colonial american history were popularized in these ways are the subjects of today's lecture. that will be myths and monuments. i will start sharing my screen. so, i began the course by introducing you to one of the most critical concepts that i hope students walk away from my course with. that's that

now we are figuring out if it is made in america, we will invented in america, it is made in america. thank you, sam for the introduction. thank you mayor keller for welcoming us to your city and getting your two kids dressed on a friday to come see me. i hope they forgive me for that. great to be here with the congressman that is always working for the people of the district on mental health and addiction in support of our veterans and modernizing infrastructure like expanding i-81. it will be expanded because of him. [applause] i wanted to commend civic leaders. that cannot be here today. stanley hoyer who leads the democrats in the house and van hollen, our dear friends and i want to thank donna edwards from the maryland state federation of labor at all of the proud members of the united auto workers here today. this is not unusual -- this is national manufacturing day, and that's starting to mean something again. we celebrate workers. they are the backbone of the economy in this country and that is not a joke. where is it written that america cannot be the leading manufacturer in

peter navarro, author of taking back trumps america.i want to press you on this one point because i'm i like readers to have a better explanation of how former president donald trump could be one of the greatest presidents in modern history which i'm not here to dispute at all , but simultaneously the undone by underlings? as you wrote in taking back trumps america, if president trump had simply signed all inauguration day that i said during the transition we would have changed the course of history. my point here is that you weren't hoodwinked. you listen to some of these intelligence briefings.you listened to gary cohen and treasury secretary steve mnuchin. >> guest: i was with him every day. >> host: you work undone or hoodwinked or reviews completely overhauled and yet president trump listened to you and listenedto others and you guys have these robust debates in the oval . people participated in them, some of them were rather he would encourage or rather robust at least debate, sometimes he would join in himself. you came out still

>> taking back trumps america only takes on so much.n trump time is where i address exactly what you're saying. the chapter called the virus deniers, my problem i'm working in my office on february 9th writing a series of memos that would help jumpstart looking at the vaccine, more importantly help jumpstart therapeutics like antibodies, things that would eventually save the president's life. i've been working on that the first week of february and everybody in the white house besides the president is saying that this is nothing. >> everybody, and i'm thinking to myself here we go. he comes to a staff meeting and hehe goes we got the virus under control. there's only four cases and i'm thinking to myself okay that means for today, it tomorrow, and within 90 days, we are going to be overwhelmed. what don't you get about that? that's how these conversations would go. he would get mad at me for talking about this stuff and get for me mulvaney was one of the worst because he i desib in takingac trumps america the worst press conference in p

peter navarro is the author of taking back trump's america. i just want to press you on this one point here, because i i'd like readers to have a better explanation of how former donald trump can be one of the greatest presidents in modern history, which i'm not here to dispute at all, but similar can easily be undone by underlings. now, as as you wrote in taking back trump's america, if president trump had simply signed all of the actions on inauguration day that i prepared during the transition, we would have dramatically changed the course of history. my point here, peter, is that you weren't hoodwinked. you listened to some of these intelligence briefings. you listened to gary cohn, and as treasury secretary steve mnuchin brought with him every day, you weren't undone and hoodwinked or had your views completely overhauled. and yet, president trump, listen to you and listen to others. and you guys had these robust debates in the oval. he likes to talk about that sort of people have participated in them. some of them were rather he would enc

states of america. [applause] >> we have time for questions if you raise your hand, identify yourself so we know who you are. governor, a couple questions, president biden moved to cancel federal student loan and you were strong in your opposition to that move, can you explain in more detail? >> sure. i think that student debt is a serious problem in america and many people are overburdened with that i think it is an issue we should try to address and we've tried to address it in a number of ways, but passing on the debt for people who have an opportunity and religious to get a college degree and transferring it over to hard-working people struggling taxpayers who did not have the opportunity does not seem fair. what we have done in our state we have worked hard to make our colleges and universities more affordable -- we propose legislation to allow people to -- docked their interest funds -- on their loans off of their taxes. and -- 28 new apprenticeship programs and cyber security and health care -- w

act one for bank of america looks great. results today, higher, 8% higher revenues in three months great credit quality this is a great act one. there's only act one of maybe a four-act play. so we'll have to still monitor this, but right now it looks pretty good. >> why is it different or distinct say than jpmorgan which also has a scaleability you talk about. >> look, jpmorgan is a leader in technology we talk about the industry in jpmorgan and bank of america transitioning to digital banking 2.0 when they offer products, relationships, experiences, connections, that were never possible in analog form. i think bank of america, though is showing greater financial discipline you know, going more incrementalist and showing greater distance between revenue growth and expense growth. so, yeah look, hour price target on jpmorgan is higher not recommending that now. we think bank of america is more in the sweet spot from deposits and showing scaleability of model without investing the windfall from higher rates it's not really a

from the network america relies on. mark: welcome back america.against one of my favorite senators, a close family friend. senator mike lee. i didn't know mike lee before he became senator, he is one of the most decent thoughtful principled people you could imagine. in many ways he is mr. conservative. he is being targeted. by a guy who started outsides a never-trumper, a republican, work the in bureaucracy. and now he pretends to be an independent. the democrat candidate. a wolf in wolf's clothing, radical left. he has changed his views immediately to take on mike lee. mike lee, you -- a very strange race. that you have going on in utah. tell us about it. >> it is. i have an independent challenger who is endorsed by democratic party who courted and obtained democratic party endorsement. raised 2.5 million in last quarter from democratic donor network and act blue and plowed two million of that to democratic consultants, on the political front who represent -- liberal and democratic causes and candidates, if it walks and quacks like a duck, in thi

the idea america is bad and america is racist.et me tell you, my parents came from it -- and here with eight dollars. the same story many of you have. they worked hard, they put in all the efforts so their children can have a better life. their daughter became the first minority governor in america. [applause] america is not a racist country. america is a country where i saw and talk to the masters at the run, and today love the fact we had freedom of speech, religion and to do be -- and be anything we wanted to be without government getting in the way. you have a distinct difference in herschel walker and rafael warnock. i want to say that, especially to the indian american community that came out. it warms my heart you came. [applause] we have seen the indian community, vote democrat for a long time. not because they are democrats. my parents voted democrat until reagan. you know why? republicans never talk to them. herschel walker wanted to talk to you. herschel walker said he wanted indian american community to know he will fi

that's russia, that's china, a lot of places but not america.blican president say that, i would be just as appalled that is where we are today. we've got to get where we communicate and we will all be happy with it. consensus means in the case of the constitutional amendment three quarters of the states have to approve and apparently a quarter didn't if that's all it was and that's what we are built upon and we don't grow back to that think supreme court should be part of the president or something, checks and balances putting 246 years ago have been incredibly effective. they do get in the way if we decide we should get our way all the time. >> one thing we've talkedd abot in the book, success and slavery, i love the story we talked about about nigerian americans and you look at how the nigerian american experience, they are like the most successful suburban the entire population so how can it be if you have this legacy get this other group arrivals during so phenomenally well? shows the power of the folks who were born here who take advantage

mark: welcome back america. when i think of greatness of america, states men we have today.ng at foreign policy, i think of tom cotton, a combat veteran, he was the first or among first to point out problems we had with communist china. and we want to talk about some of this today particularly given weakness of the biden administration. the nuclear threats that are going on. the appease.ment of iran, you he written a fantastic book. you can get it on amazon.com, any major bookstore. first, what caused you to write this book, what do you think about what is going on with this administration? >> thank you, mark. i started to conceive only the strong last summer after the fiasco in afghanistan, so man americans asking me, how did we let this happen? and but then as i thought more about it i got the question in other forms, how did we let left wing radical rampage in our streets in summer of 2020, tearing down statues of our heroes. and how we got to that point where we're allowing schools to -- indoctrinate our kids and subjecting our troops and military similar. i want to tell

we've always america has always we will prevail again. but this is a book, american perspective that is really the sort of map that gps map, about how we retrieve the american dream and american greatness. it will happen. i feel very confident about it, but i hope that everyone reads this. adam, you've been you and i have worked together now for what, been five or six years. and this incredible, you know, activist organization with several million around the country who believe in freedom, believe in free enterprise, believe in liberty. i, spence, are concerned about some of those poll results of young people that. they don't seem to have the same kind of appreciation for the greatness of america. so can we get this? i want to see this book put libraries and put in schools so that young can can read this and learn from it. so congratulations on a great book. it's america and perspective. thank you for c-span for covering this and i will now turn it. who do i turn it over to? now? right here. thank you for having me, steve. let's move it a

peter navarro is the author of "taking back trump's america."t want to press you onpo ts one point because i would like readers have better explanation of howor former president donald trump can be one of the greatest president in modern history, which i'm not here to dispute at all, but simultaneously be undone by underlings. now, as you wrote in "king back trump's america" if president trump had simply signed all of the actions on inauguration day that i prepared during the transition we would have dramatically changed the course of history. my point here, peter, is at you were not hoodwinked. you listen to some of these intelligence briefings. you listen to gary cohn and treasury secretary steven mnuchin -- >> guest: talked with them everyday. >> host: you were u not undone and hoodwinked or hads your vies completelyan overhauled. and yet president trump listened to you and listen to others and you guys had this robust debates any old. he likes to talk about that sort of people participate in the. some of them were rather he would encourage a

the government america created is still the government of iraq. not innocent the situation is different. we have essentially been attempting to form a coalition of minorities on the morality of 40% of the population and they have had essentially no political representation in the government and have been sworn to resist american occupation since they started fighting back in 2004 and 2005. so they are going to take over the country almost certainly end up means there is going to be to pay for those that have been propped up in power by the united states so far. it would be great if they could negotiate some kind of peaceful resolution to the problem in the form of the new government there. frankly i expect the worst. taking your book "enough already" describe 9/11 as -- what you mean by that? >> blowback is a term coined by the central intelligence agency in iran in 1953. it means not just consequences that long-term consequences of secret foreign policy so when they come back to haunt the united states the american people to understand the contex

we talked about asserting america's leadership.he best and the safest roads, railroads, ports and so much more. now we didn't do what we were finally getting to. we finally decided and instead of being ranked number 13 in the world, 13 in the world -- the united states, 13 in the world infrastructure. we should be ranked number one. so instead of infrastructure week which is a punchline for four years under my predecessor, it is infrastructure decade, a headline on my watch. i signed into law a once in a generation investment in roads, highways, bridges and so much more. over $1 trillion. it is called the bipartisan infrastructure law. it is the most significant investment in american infrastructure that eisenhower -- since eisenhower's interstate highway system. pennsylvania loan has already received $5.2 billion just this year for hundreds of projects across the commonwealth. just announced another $2.5 billion to fix and upgrade pennsylvania's roads and bridges. there will be billions more for other projects. let me tell you why

. >> i will try to live up to the expectations of the program but the book is from america, pia navarrothe author, her second book donald trump and his administration. >> the second memoir, i have a unique advantage. i have one of only three senior advisors in the white house with the president all away from the campaign 2016 until the end. i was literally an all the rooms where it happened and the campaign was important because fothat's where margo was forged and were redeveloped messaging policies would implement later during his term so this is the seco book of what is going to b eventually a trilogy on th tmp administration. this focus is primarily on this phenomenon under reagan where personnel is policy, who you put in the white house can be good or bad depending on whether they are i' sync with the president so as part of the focus and prospectively the title taking back transamerica toward the future. >> i want to get into the areas you covered and thinking back transamerica but i want to touch weekly on the background, we are both originally californians and i don't know if man

teaching scorn for america's founding principles for america's constitutional traditions. so when we're thinking about what might discipline the populace, we have to think about what cause the populist surge and what caused the populist surge. it seems to me, is, is a perception grounded in reality that the elites have hijacked our institutions, not least our educational institutions and. those institutions have been turned against the fundamental principles of the country, and therefore one more thought, a theme tocqueville and i know is just mutual here. he would know whether others would. harvey translate the book. how much. tocqueville discusses universities. but i think it's not a a guiding theme of democracy in america. it's hard to see how the art of association alone going to rescue us if we can't find ways to reform in an educational system which is one of the sources of virtues that we perfect perfect that we hone in. well, i want to open things up and please raise your hands and we can start to take questions. there also are watching online and if you're watchin

rosa: américa. todos: Águilas. rosa: américa.lorando, manita? maría: es que me está viendo con sus ojos, yo ya no me voy a comer nada que tenga ojos, ¿qué haces? betzabé: pues, quitándole los ojos. maría: ¿cómo van a ir ahí los ojos? betzabé: entonces, ¿qué era esto? maría: no sé. betzabé: sería... ¿tú crees? maría: ay, ¿te imaginas? betzabé: me voy a lavar las manos. todos: [hablan a la vez] pásenle. todos: [hablan a la vez] chaman: nadie puede contra el chape vargas, y menos juan chifula, esos sí son defensas. carmelo: sí, señor. lucha: mira, chama, va una, ya le paras. carmelo: vamos mi resortito, estírese, resorte, estírese, estírese, resorte. todos: [hablan a la vez] lucha: eso, hijo, atájala, atájala, por donde las arañas hacen su nido. todos: [hablan a la vez] chaman: te lo dije, nadie puede contra el chape vargas. carmelo: sí, señor. lucha: te lo dije, chaman, fuera de mi casa, órale, vámonos de aquí, vámonos, ándale. chaman: pero-- lucha: nada de pero, órale. ¿se lo dije o no se lo dije? delfino: no, de que se lo dijo, s

how about america in perspective? and you start gathering other notes and that was the reason that the working title, which ended up being the final title was "america in perspective" is back to we were taking all the stories and so much of what david and his experience mirrored in my own family, although newman america has ever taken a company public. a lot of us a dream too, but when you look at the stories december the people come to this country and the hardship that they experience, and every great american story is about persevering and having hardship and having failure and having to reinvent yourself. and every great whether it's a sport athlete or business owner is one, the most common american streets start looking back to our history, , that's just something that happens today. this is happen from the very founding of the nation. so when you start putting all those trials and tribulation in perspective, it's a pretty incredible story. too often we focus on the negative and you focus on what is driving peopl

in america, america really is a bench truck, but i have seen different situations .te that. politics, like crumb, who wants to change all these systems, and because of this, i think that nothing will change after the elections. i just want to remind our viewers once again that we have jason jay smart , an american political technologist and political consultant, as a guest, and i have a question in the continuation of the topic about trembists and what happened to elon musk, did he get bitten by someone? lavrov, maybe putin, what happened to him, uh, citizens? he, too, i spoke about this before to the warring ukraine , that is, it is dangerous. something new, it's not new , it's an ego chip, in fact, i think it just shows it's his instinct, it's his feeling, that he's afraid of war, nuclear war, and i think that in fact, in this game, you're just a human, eh, he's playing , they have right to your own a-a different sense and even if with me and she has it true because of the fact that yes yes it’s just well it’s well bibistky it’s silent that they said that they just

america is watching on c-span.owered by cable. >> president biden was in pennsylvania to talk about infrastructure investments around that state as a result of the bipartisan infrastructure package that he signed into law last november. he spoke from the fern hollow bridge in pittsburgh that is under repair following a collapse that is expected to completed by the end of the year. that has been made on this important project. my name is greg stoll. i live in somerset, pennsylvania. i'm a proud 35 year member of the carpenter union. every highway local 274. and part of this team of men and women from swank construction are helping to rebuild fern hollow bridge. i've built a big career working on roads and bridges all over pennsylvania and west virginia. sometimes i've traveled as far as two hours to work and two hours home to provide an honest living for my family. i'm grateful for the career and ability to continue working thanks to the investments made in president biden's bipartisan infrastructure bill. on a pers

that is what makes america great.i signed up to serve when i joined the military, and that is what i believe in. we dare not fall back on that progress. it is essential for america. i wouldn't say -- i would say it is even essential for humanity. no nation this big and diverse has come this far in this way. when our nation declared independence, the world had not yet seen a society of this scale moving forward with self-government. to this day, the world has not yet seen a full-scale, truly representative, fully inclusive multiracial democratic republic like the one that has been under constant construction here on u.s. soil in the last few hundred years. humanity has not yet seen that come all the way to fruition, but we will. i believe -- i believe the world will only see it happen if it happens right here in the united states of america. i believe we will see it in our lifetimes, if we safeguard it right here and right now. that is what is that steak. it's that fully inclusive democratic society we've been working

businesses are investing here in america at record rates. they see what i see: the resilience of the american people and the potential of building an economy from the bottom up and middle out. look, when the middle does well and the bottom has a chance, the wellthey never get hurt. -- the wealthy do very wellthey never get hurt. i'm so tired of trickle-down. i'm finished with it. [applause] so we're going to keep at it by taking on big pharma and the insurance companies, especially the health insurance companies. with the help of democrats in congress here today, i signed the inflation reduction act, which gave medicare the power that we've been trying to get for the last 30 years: the power to negotiate lower prescription drug prices. [applause] we pay the highest drug prices of any nations in the world. for seniors on medicare, we're capping the cost of prescription drugs at $2,000 a year even if they're doing, using the most expensive cancer drug in the world. we're capping the cost of insulin, which is 30, 40 times higher than the number

america fought for the super majority. i was not really a victory because they did not need us and kicked america right out since we were done winning the war fon them. but the government america create in baghdad is still the government of our rock. in afghanistan the situation is different. essentially attempting to hoist a coalition ofal minorities the 40% of the population. they have essentially no political representation in thei government. and have been sworn to resist american occupation since they started fighting it back in 200. and so they are going to take over the country almost certainly. that means there's going to be to pay for those who been propped up in power byy the united states so far. it would be great if they could negotiate some kind of peacefulb resolution to the problem in the form of a new government there. but frankly i do expect the worst. see what in your book, enough already what you mean by that? irex well, low back was a term coined by the central intelligence agency after the coup in iran

how about america and perspective? and you start gathering other notes and that was the reason for the working title. the title "america in perspective" we were taking the stories and so much what david experienced mirrored in my own family although my family has never taken a company public. when you look at the stories of similar to people who come to this country and the hardship that they experienced. every great american story is about persevering and having hardship and having failure and having to reinvent themselves. every great weather sports athlete or a business owner everyone has a common american story so we look back their history and that's not something that happens today practices happened to the founding of the nation. when you start putting all of those trials and tribulations intoy. perspective it's a pretty incrediblele story appeared too often we have focused on the negative and we focused on what is driving people apart and not that basic dna that unites all americans. this is the most successful

-backed right-wing forces in central america.q and afghanistan, his enemy shifted from communism to what he called "radical islam." (door slams) in iraq, working under general mcchrystal, he revolutioned counterterrorism operations to deal with the threat of al qaeda. he built a reputation as a brilliant officer while serving as the head of intelligence for an elite covert force-- the joint special operations command, or jsoc. >> my first awareness of mike flynn was probably in the jsoc when he joined jsoc as the j2. critical position. jsoc was the premier command in the u.s. military, without question. >> smith: doug wise is a veteran of the cia who worked closely with jsoc. >> i spent three decades undercover cia as an operator, as a station chief, service in afghanistan, the balkans, south asia, iraq. chief of operational training for cia, and ultimately, appointed as the deputy director of the defense intelligence agency-- mike flynn then the incumbent director. dr. evil was my call sign. >> smith: wise was part of the invasi

america has prevailed and will again but america perspective that is the gps map how we achieve the greatness but i hope everyone reads the book reading the book now five or six years building thiss activist organization was several million around the country who believe in freedom and free enterprise and liberty i'm concerned about those poll results of young people they all have the same appreciation for the greatness of america. i want to see the book put in libraries and schools so young people can read this and learn from it it's called america and perspective thank you for covering this. [applause] >> it's my pleasure to be here thank you to freedom works for hosting this conversation because the book it is and i can say it is moving and includes so many helpful arguments but with moral clarity. i will introduce our speakers and then we will dive right in. chairman and ceo teton capital taking three companies public as chairman and ceo that american and energy sold to berkshire hathaway than retired march 2011 and a member of the executive committee from the horatio alger association of

and be grateful to america. an week later, it was she, went to the grave stone to the earth on the spot, the redstone inscription was as simple as it was short, thomas paine. and also "common sense". >> thank you so much, that story is really amazing what a wonderful talk and anyway, we put in on the screen chair and i want to get the documents here, there we go. there are lots of great questions going in. when we were talking about "common sense" and at the bottom of this it says, it was by richard bell, so who is this richard bell. [laughter] >> well i am richard bell. >> and there was another question, is there any connection to much let me tell you. this is actually robert bell, no relation it to me as far as i know and he is a printer the bookseller r bell and he was one of a small booksellers and printers at the time. and franklins would've been another one and it is robert bell, and his competitors would buy a copy and then they would print their own to compete against him so robert bell is holding on by

not in america, as he would in china. the cards brought that vast quantity of fans because they were very expensive, and because they knew the appeal of fan had and on one shipload, they brought in 12,000 paper fans, which is what afong moy is holding in this broadside, and -- the biggest fan you see here from the new york historical society is a popular machine and lacquer, paper, to, a little bit more expensive than the fan that afong moy would have been holding. but i wanted you to notice that again, in the new york historical society fan, you see images of the chinese and images of china. and again, this is very typical, because it's presenting an exotic and a lustrous, far away place, in an item that would be of interest in a drawing room or used to show your gentility and to show your awareness of faraway place, with an object with images such as this. something that's pretty fascinating, you know, the connection you can draw, i think, between objects and its culture is so really important, and really fascinating. >

america invented these chips. america invented these chips. they powered nasa's first moon mission that president kennedy inspired. here in america. federal investment helped bring down the cost of creating these chips creating a market and an entire new industry. as a result, over 30 years ago, america had more than 30% of the global chip production. but then something happened. something happened. american manufacturing, the backbone of our economy, got hollowed out. because companies began to move jobs and production overseas. and as a result, today, we're down to barely 10% of the world's chips, despite leading the chip research and design. and as we saw during the pandemic, when factories, when factories that make these chips shut down around the world, the global economy literally comes to a screeching halt. more americans will learn the phrase supply chain and what it means. guess what? the supply chain is going to start here, and end here. in the united states. [ applause ] >> i'm not joking. for example, here in the united states, one
