Nvidia answers Trump’s call to bring chip manufacturing back to America
Congressional Democrats are voicing alarm at the fact that the U.S. might soon begin selling cutting-edge chips to one of its greatest geopolitical adversaries.

Rep. Gregory Meeks, D-N.Y., joined by Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., wrote a letter to Under Secretary for Industry and Security Jeffrey Kessler on Monday, demanding answers as to why the Trump administration had green-lit the sale of the H200 Chip to China.

"The President directing you to approve licenses of the H200 falls within a deeply concerning pattern that undercuts our nation’s security," the pair of Democrats wrote.
 

Meeks said the basis of his request is found in the Export Control Reform Act (ECRA), the 2018 law governing the federal government authority over technology-related exports. The ECRA states that the Department of Commerce must supply Congress with answers to concerns raised by the ranking member of the foreign affairs and armed services committees.

1. Since when did Dems give a @#$% about US being powerful militarily?

2. Did the Dems' wolf-crying mention that what is being allowed to be shipped is one or two generations old?

3. Since when did Dems give a @#$% about US being powerful militarily? The JFK Administration?

Not to worry, with all the 47 worshipers out there, we will be fine - just read their comments, pronouncements, and announcements. China is our friend, and lover and oh so much more. Which is why 47 is in love with every dictator under the sun, especially the very cute and panda-like Xi.

Just because the Dems are saying it doesn't mean it's not true.  :shrug:

Granted...A million monkeys typing will eventually produce a line from one of Shakespeare's sonnets.

But when the Dems say something, the odds are against veracity.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
