- Description
- President Donald Trump is betting billions of federal dollars on rebuilding America’s mining industry and boosting U.S. supplies of critical minerals. But will it work? And what obstacles are ahead? POLITICO’s Hannah Northey breaks down where the money is going, why mining has become a major energy and national security priority, and the challenges that could stand in the administration’s way. Plus, the Trump administration said it would extend by 90 days its Jones Act waiver, and a new POLITICO poll found that a plurality of Americans now oppose a data center being built near where they live.

- Francesca Hong's message to Wisconsin voters: "I've cooked many great Thanksgiving dinners, and I'm not going to cancel Thanksgiving."
Hong’s comments ahead of her primary race Tuesday come after the democratic socialist took heat for a past social media post railing against Thanksgiving. She was later slammed for being unable to give a straightforward answer to CNN about whether she would “cancel Thanksgiving.”
Last week, Hong reversed herself, telling us that Thanksgiving was, in fact, her favorite holiday.
