## Resource

More and more businesses are trying to create new production facilities in the United States of America. However, some people are trying to stop that or say it's not a good thing. What the heck is going on there? Who's right and who's wrong? Our memorable host, Mike Slater, has some thoughts on this and you'll want to hear them! PLUS, some commentary on Graham Platner dropping out of the U.S. Senate race in Maine! Following that, Patrick O'Donnell, historian and bestselling author of The Indispensables stops by to gab with Mike about this nation's glorious heritage with a particular focus on the Founding Fathers!
