The White House says President Trump has secured a wave of commitments in steel, nuclear, gas, shipbuilding, and medical manufacturing that will create American jobs. No companies, dollar figures, locations, or timelines are named in the release.

The announcement frames this as delivering on a promise to 'communities Washington left behind,' though which communities, which contracts, and which numbers back any of it remain entirely unspecified.

The full dispatch is available from the source below.

✒ FROM THE EDITORIAL DESK
A promise with no names, no dollars, and no addresses is about as filling as a recipe with no ingredients. My neighbor once told me he'd sold his hay crop for a fortune, and when I asked to who, he got real interested in the weather. If the jobs are coming, somebody in some town will notice. Until then this is a map with no roads on it.
