WINNING! Apple to Invest $500 Billion in U.S. After Trump Meeting With CEO Tim Cook — Will Add 20,000 Jobs Over Next Four Years

Tim Cook / Apple Keynote
Apple is betting on the continued strength of the U.S. economy under Donald Trump.
Following a meeting between Trump and Apple CEO Tim Cook, who was also in attendance at his inauguration last month, the technology giant has confirmed it will invest a staggering $500 billion in the U.S. and add 20,000 jobs over the next four years.
Bloomberg provides the details:
The company said Monday that it plans to spend $500 billion domestically over the next four years, which will include work on a new server manufacturing facility in Houston, a supplier academy in Michigan and additional spending with its existing suppliers in the country.
The disclosure comes days after Trump and Apple Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook met in the Oval Office.
“He’s investing hundreds of billions of dollars,” Trump said after the meeting last week. He implied that the iPhone maker is investing locally because it does not want to pay tariffs.
Trump has threatened an additional 10% tax on items imported from China, where Apple builds the vast majority of iPhones and other products. But he has traded investment in the US for relief in the past.
The $500 billion investment and 20,000 new jobs over the next four years mark Apple’s biggest US commitment to date.
In a statement, Tim Cook said he was “bullish” about the future of American innovation.
“We are bullish on the future of American innovation, and we’re proud to build on our long-standing US investments with this $500 billion commitment to our country’s future,” Cook said in a statement.
“We’ll keep working with people and companies across this country to help write an extraordinary new chapter in the history of American innovation.”

Apple and Foxconn will begin producing Private Cloud Compute servers in Houston this year, shifting some cloud infrastructure manufacturing from overseas. A 250,000-square-foot facility for server production is set to open in the city next year.
Apple is also expanding data center capacity in Arizona, Oregon, Iowa, Nevada, and North Carolina, reinforcing its U.S. infrastructure.
While M-series chips powering these servers are still produced in Taiwan, Apple confirmed that mass production of chips began last month at TSMC’s Arizona plant, supplying components for Apple Watches and iPads.
The move is a big win for Trump, who has long pressured companies such as Apple into bring manufacturing back to America, using tariffs and economic incentives to encourage them to produce more domestically.

RFK Jr. Drops a Mega Bombshell on mRNA Vaccine Technology (VIDEO)

This article originally appeared on vigilantfox.com and was republished with permission.
In a move that many were hoping for but were not expecting, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy just announced that BARDA will be CANCELING 22 mRNA vaccine development contracts, saving taxpayers about $500 million in the process.
This move delivered a major blow to the biomedical industrial complex, which was hoping to make an mRNA vaccine for just about every disease imaginable.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/foxs-video-aug-5-2025-veed-3.mp4
The reason for this move is grounded in what happened during the COVID debacle, which Kennedy explained in detail.
First, he shared how “mRNA vaccines don’t perform well against viruses that infect the upper respiratory tract.”
“mRNA only codes for a small part of the viral proteins, usually a single antigen. One mutation, and the vaccine becomes INEFFECTIVE,” Kennedy said.
The next revelation was a big surprise.
Kennedy confirmed that the COVID shots could have CAUSED the mutations and EXTENDED the pandemic altogether.
He explained:
“The [mRNA] vaccine [platform] paradoxically encourages new mutations and can actually prolong pandemics. As the virus constantly mutates to escape the protective effects of the vaccine, millions of people, maybe even you or someone you know, caught the Omicron variant despite being vaccinated. That’s because a single mutation can make mRNA vaccines ineffective.”
Kennedy’s comments echo what vaccinologist Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche and the “conspiracy theorists” have been saying for the better part of four years now.
He warned, “You are generating a breeding ground for even more infectious variants to replicate” when you vaccinate DURING a pandemic.
With the conclusion that mRNA shots are ineffective against respiratory viruses, prolong pandemics, and encourage mutations, Kennedy declared:
“mRNA technology poses MORE risk than benefits for these respiratory viruses.”
As such, Kennedy announced that BARDA (Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority) will be CANCELING 22 mRNA vaccine contracts, saving taxpayers “just under $500 million” in the process.

He clarified that this isn’t a complete indictment of mRNA technology across the board, but when it comes to respiratory diseases, he believes it offers no benefit to humanity.
“That’s why we’re moving beyond the limitations of mRNA for respiratory viruses and investing in better solutions,” Kennedy said.

Thanks for reading! I hope this brought you the good news you needed today.
I was banned from Twitter 1.0 three times for sharing information that Kennedy just confirmed.
Like many others, I was labeled a “conspiracy theorist.” Turns out, we were right all along.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Unloads on the GOP, H1B Immigration, Foreign Aid to Ukraine, Israel

Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has publicly criticized President Donald Trump over immigration policy and foreign aid.
Greene responded to Trump’s tariff announcement on India by urging an end to H1-B visas that she claims replace American jobs. Greene also called for stopping funding and weapons to Ukraine in its conflict with Russia.
Greene stated that continued U.S. funding for Kiev betrays the majority of Americans who voted to end foreign wars.
She highlighted Trump’s 2024 election win as a mandate against such involvement. The congresswoman warned that supporting these policies risks losing younger voters permanently.
On the Israel-Gaza conflict, Greene described Israel’s actions as a “genocide” and condemned the starvation in Gaza. She became the first Republican lawmaker to use this term publicly.
Greene emphasized that innocent Palestinian lives, including children and Christians, should not be devalued compared to Israeli ones.
Greene expressed surprise that more conservative colleagues have not spoken out against U.S. support for Israel’s offensive operations.
She argued that funding such wars contradicts a biblical mandate and America’s interests.
The congresswoman clarified her support for Israel’s existence while opposing involvement in its conflicts.
Trump has acknowledged the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, noting visible starvation among children despite Netanyahu’s denials.
He mentioned his wife Melania’s distress over images from the region. This marks a softening in Trump’s stance amid ongoing hostilities nearing two years.
Greene’s positions reflect broader shifts in U.S. opinion, with approval of Israel’s Gaza actions dropping to 32 percent per Gallup polls.
Republicans under 50 now view Israel more negatively than positively, according to Pew surveys.
Figures like Steve Bannon and Tucker Carlson have also criticized Netanyahu’s government.
The congresswoman has voiced growing frustration with the Republican Party’s direction. She questioned whether the GOP is leaving her or if she no longer relates to it.
Greene stated she does not want involvement in the party’s current course on foreign policy and spending.
3Greene warned Trump about delivering on promises like Epstein file transparency to retain base support. She referenced past divergences, including on AI policy in Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill.” Despite these splits, Greene affirmed her commitment to America First principles.
Greene suggested her political future may not rely on party establishment backing. She expressed confidence in winning support from Georgia voters independently. However, the congresswoman indicated no plans for higher office in 2026.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott Files Emergency Petition with Supreme Court to REMOVE Democrat Ringleader Who Fled State to Obstruct Redistricting Vote

State Rep. Gene Wu
Governor Greg Abbott has officially filed an emergency writ of quo warranto with the Texas Supreme Court, seeking the removal of far-left Democrat State Representative Gene Wu from office for abandoning his constitutional duties and fleeing the state in a premeditated scheme to block a GOP-led vote.
According to the explosive 70-page filing, Rep. Wu—Chair of the Texas House Democratic Caucus—was the ringleader of a carefully orchestrated plan that saw dozens of Democrat lawmakers hop aboard a 76-seat private jet, funded in part by Beto O’Rourke’s political action committee, to escape to Chicago rather than perform their duty during a constitutionally mandated special legislative session.
The petition alleges that Wu and his fellow Democrats deliberately broke quorum to sabotage redistricting reforms and kill flood relief, property tax relief, and school reform legislation, critical priorities for Texans.
“If representatives are free not to show up whenever they choose, then Texans simply do not have a representative government,” the petition reads.
“In fact, they don’t have a functioning government at all. This Court should make clear that a legislator who does not wish to perform his duties will be stripped of them.”
The petition reveals that Wu not only left the state, but actively solicited donations online to help cover fines and expenses—funding his absence with cash from liberal donors.
The document accuses him of potentially violating Texas bribery laws and the state constitution, citing provisions that require forfeiture of office if an official accepts anything of value to withhold their vote.
Wu posted pictures boarding the jet on X, while simultaneously asking followers to “Support Texas House Democrats as we deny quorum.” One image was immediately followed by a donation link.
According to the petition, Beto O’Rourke’s PAC offered to cover the cost of the trip and committed all future donations to lawmakers who fled the state.
Support Texas House Democrats as we deny quorum.

The petition concludes:
This case is not a political dispute; it is a constitutional crisis. The current Special Session is set to expire in just two weeks. But Wu apparently has no intention of returning. Instead, he claims the “special session is over.” Permitting him to continue occupying his office so that he can abdicate the duties of that office will only enable future legislators to grind state government to a halt.
Perhaps these absent members expect—someday—to return to Texas and be hailed as heroes who “fought” by fleeing. But in the meantime, they are preventing the Texas Legislature, duly called by the Governor, from addressing the acute needs of Texans across the State.
Every day, their continued absence wastes taxpayer dollars and imperils urgent policy needs, ranging from improved flood response tools to the judicial omnibus bill governing the day-to-day workings of the state courts.
And, in the future, whenever the Governor adds an item on the special session agenda that they find offensive, they may feel empowered to once again flee the State and deny the Article III, Section 5 constitutional mandate. Absent quo warranto, there is no end in sight to this piracy.
The Constitution nowhere envisions Texans signing onto that kind of suicide pact. Legislators may, of course, disagree on specific pieces of legislation.
But our Constitution conceives of deliberation and debate as the official way to process official disagreements. That is why, in addition to laying out general principles for the order of business, the Constitution imposes mandatory duties on members to ensure they will be present to conduct business.
Representative government cannot function if elected officials may monetize their absence, abandon their obligations, and paralyze the Legislature without consequence.
The writ of quo warranto exists precisely to remedy such abuses. And there is still time for this Court to use it here. Ordering Wu’s removal from office would ensure that public office remains a trust exercised in good faith, as opposed to a platform for private gain and governmental sabotage.
It could also begin to make it easier to establish a quorum while the Special Session is still under way. Above all, however, it promises to restrain future abuses. Refusing to address the problem now may simply invite it to recur, always in the final days of a session.
The integrity of Texas’s constitutional order demands this Court’s urgent intervention, and Texas voters are counting on it.
