Wisconsin wants out of its $4 billion Foxconn deal Spoiler By Ed Hardy • 4:30 pm, April 17, 2019 News The Wisconsin governor longer believes Foxconn is bringing jobs like these to his state. Photo: Foxconn The governor of Wisconsin wants to renegotiate the deal in which iPhone-assembler Foxconn would have received $4 billion in subsidies and infrastructure spending in exchange for employing 13,000 people. Foxconn has changed its plans several times since the deal was first announced, and Gov. Tony Evers no longer believes all those promised jobs will ever emerge “Clearly the deal that was struck is no longer in play and so we will be working with individuals at Foxconn and of course with (the Wisconsin Economic Development Corp.) to figure out how a new set of parameters should be negotiated,” Evers said today, according to the Journal Sentinel. Foxconn’s shifting plans for Wisconsin Although Foxconn is famous for assembling the iPhone for Apple, it never intended to do so in Wisconsin. Instead, the original deal called for Foxconn to produce large-sized displays for televisions and monitors in this midwestern state. Its manufacturing plant was expected to cost $10 billion to build, and employ those thousands of Wisconsin residents. In return, the Taiwanese enterprise would receive $3 billion in tax breaks and incentives, and another $1 billion in infrastructure. But the company’s production plan was later changed to small and medium-sized LCDs, some of which potentially could have been used in Apple products. And the goal was modified even more this January, to making products for the industrial and health care fields. Through this, Foxconn maintained that it would provide 13,000 jobs. To further confuse the situation, in February the plan changed back to making small displays after President Trump put pressure on company CEO Terry Gou. The president has been a visible part of bringing Foxconn to Wisconsin from the beginning. Gov. Evers clearly has had enough. “It’s our goal to make sure that the taxpayers are protected and environmental standards are protected. And we believe we need to take a look at that contract and see if it needs to be downsized as a result.”
I mean this report seems to be spreading very quickly and bigly across all media. This has to be an all-time backfire.
I realize there's a level evidence has to rise to for criminality but why are you obstructing if you didn't collude. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills
The introduction of the report says that "collusion" isn't an actual thing they can charge someone with and that the campaign's actions didn't satisfy provable conspiracy charges. The report even acknowledges that this could be because of deleted communications. The upshot is that, like Lyrtch said, the report is begging for Congress to impeach him for the obvious obstruction - even if there isn't enough evidence around the crime they're covering up.
For a report that claimed no collusion and obstruction it sure seems like there’s a lot of collusion and obstruction.
Nah. They knew it was this bad. And it is this bad....this is still just the best case scenario. Which, holy fuck.
The amazing thing is that as bad as all this is, we only have the redacted version. it probably gets worse.
Locals were thrown out of their homes when Wisconsin declared the land blighted to force them out for Foxcon. Nobody in Wisconsin wanted this garbage polluting our Great Lake. Everybody is glad to be rid of the former Governor who did whatever his gubernatorial and presidential campaign funders wanted. Thanks for ruining our parks/public lands and public school systems.
126 million Americans reached and only needed just under 78,000 of them in 3 states to change their minds about who they were voting for
has Joseph Mifsud ever been found? I know that he went missing last year in Italy or Malta. Seems like thats underreported.
i feel like the Peter Smith acting on Trumps orders via Flynn to illegally obtain Hillary's emails and referred the findings to be released by wikileaks angle is undercovered the guy told the WSJ all this two years ago right before killing himself
it’s hysterical that conservatives have branded themselves as the patriots of this country when literally every single one of them is traitorous trash.
I was actually trying to reply to the Michael Flynn go find Hilary's emails tweet but I goofed. Spent a futile minute trying to correct it and said fuck it because it pretty much applies to everything.
Wow, remember when Richard Burr was being held up as a straight shooter who was running a Senate Committee Investigation properly? He was feeding info to the Trump team the entire time as part of the gang of 8.
"Gates recalled that the meeting was attended by Trump Jr., Eric Trump, Manafort, Hope Hicks, Kushner and Ivanka. Hicks denied any knowledge of the June 9 meeting before 2017. Kushner did not recall if the planned June 9 meeting came up at all earlier that week."
yeah, I'd say actively working to obtain information stolen by our enemies and actively using said information against a citizen of the united states is conduct that shouldn't be accepted.
