Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

While the former guy loved to talk about American greatness and the return of manufacturing jobs to the US, that sector of the economy actually went into recession mode under his watch – and it happened even before everything shut down due to COVID.

The latest breakthrough happened on Tuesday when the Department of Energy announced a $2.5 billion loan to Ultium Cells LLC, a joint venture between both General Motors and LG Energy Solutions for making lithium ion battery cells, which will be built in factories throughout Ohio, Michigan, and Tennessee.

“This loan will jumpstart the domestic battery cell production needed to reduce our reliance on other countries to meet increased demand and support President Biden’s goals of widespread EV adoption and cutting carbon pollution produced by gas-powered vehicles,” said the U.S. Dept. of Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm.

While Republicans under Trump were trying to subsidize the backwards and dangerous coal industry in order to keep baiting a largely white base of voters into voting Republican, this administration clearly has its eye on the future and by 2024, the party will have a lot to run on for re-election.
