MANUFACTURE LOCAL®
@JohnGardnerVoH
Grateful President Trump saw value in my concept of an External Revenue Service, from my book, "Manufacture Local” published July 2024
My book, "Manufacture Local", is a blueprint, a Grand Industrial Vision, filled with solutions, that will rebuild America's industry and our Middle class. amazon.com/Manufacture-Lo…
This is why we need industry veterans advising the Administration on Industrial Policy. “Good in excel and interviewing mgmt teams is not relevant in my new ecosystem lol.” This thread highlights the challenges of going from Wall Street to SMB manufacturing owner.
Conservative cap structure coz well…I had no experience prior. Good in excel and interviewing mgmt teams is not relevant in my new ecosystem lol. But yeah if I get burnt out, I can def out by ripping my face off by agreeing to sell at a dumb multiple to pay off the debt
Tariff chicken littles are wrong again—where's the tsunami of inflation? Could it be that the "experts" are wrong about tariffs—just like they were wrong about mass immigration & Covid lockdowns? See my latest column @theblaze theblaze.com/columns/opinio…
Production creates strong economies
Taiwan is the 21st largest economy and produces 90% of the world’s advanced chips. I met with IMF leadership to make clear: Taiwan deserves a seat at the table—and the free world needs Taiwan at the IMF.
Time to get these young men to work in the factories! “Young men aged 22–27 with recent degrees are now experiencing unemployment at the same rate as those without a college education.”
Unemployment is surging for recent grads: The unemployment rate for recent male graduates has jumped more than 2 percentage points over the last 12 months, to 7%, the highest since 2020. Outside the pandemic, this is the highest level in 13 years. By comparison, the…
The Return of Steel Means the Return of America “The U.S. steel industry is back under President Donald J. Trump. After languishing under a Biden-era stranglehold — plagued by unfair foreign competition, job losses, and weakened national security as imports flooded the market…

Brennan, you are correct that I have written a lot about re-booting and recapitalizing our commercial industrial base. Much for people to read. For now the immediate issues at hand in the broad 'three legs on the stool' relate to: 1. Owning our supply-chains fully all the way…

It should also be noted that that the 4 primes are heavily dependent on the SMBs for a majority of parts that go into their products. However, for the SMBs, this “government” revenue only accounts for about 5%-10% of overall sales. This is why our commercial industrial base is…
The current love-fest with defense and military tech from the @reindsummit as reflected in the subsequent coverage in @TheFP @nytimes and the @MollySOShea Sourcery podcast has got to be put in context. 1. Approximately 4.84% of U.S. manufacturing falls under direct defense and…

Nearly every piece of clothing sold in the U.S. is imported. 97% percent comes from abroad, most of it from Asia. Our heavy reliance on imports creates risk and instability when global supply chains fail. It’s time to rethink how and where our clothes are made. @anatarhq
@JohnGardnerVoH is one of the leading champions for small/medium manufacturers. He owns a small manufacturing business himself and knows what he’s talking about. More people on the hill need to listen to him.

Manufacturing wins conflicts. Software is useless without hardware.
Amazing what a well thought out Industrial Policy can do over time. Western fixation on the [true] magic of compounding interest has nothing on the Chinese rolling 5-Year Industrial Policy. The greatest non-kinetic weapon that is immune to even AI is owning the supply-chain.

This sucks.
And medical consumables. I’ve also learned that nearly 75% of healthcare services for active duty personnel (mainly family members) is performed at private hospitals. DoD affiliated personnel is a much larger part of the normal healthcare system than people realize.
Good. Now @SecDef do same with military’s dependence on adversary for medicines for warfighters. Biowarfare threat in legal supply chain will cripple preparedness, response. @thejointstaff @NSAGov @SenTomCotton @mrbcyber @EricLDaugh @ZachMottl
MUST WATCH interview with @JohnGardnerVoH Tariffs are an amazing tool, but we don't have to use them like a hammer. They can also be a scalpel. The goal is to reshore industry—to do this, we will NEED to import precision machine tools & lithography machines from Europe.
GARDNER: “We Need A Year Break To Separate Overall Tariffs From Machine Tools From Europe, From Consumer Goods” @JohnGardnerVoH
.@RealPNavarro: "We've had three reports now this week... and every time, we're doing better than Wall Street said we were going to do. Today, retail sales were higher than expected... Producer Price Index yesterday was lower than expectations..." "We love where we're at."
Tariffs are a powerful tool in the “arsenal of democracy”
🔥 BOOM: Trump just dropped a 100% tariff hammer on every country buying Russian oil — and NATO’s new Secretary General says it’s “smartly, wisely designed.” Now China, India & Brazil are on notice. You want Russian oil? It’ll cost you. A LOT.🧵👇
Spend even a little bit of time in Brownsville, Texas, talking to business owners and contractors, and you know what manufacturing means to our nation. The amazing @SpaceX team, led by President and COO @Gwynne_Shotwell, is capable of mind-boggling engineering. Some are living…
