President Trump praised DOGE: “We saved $150 billion — BILLION. That’s a lot of money … There are things that I’m considering right now putting back, but overall, we saved hundreds of billions of dollars … We also found tremendous waste, fraud, and abuse.”

Ford CEO Jim Farley got under the hood of the automaker's commitment to American manufacturing Tuesday on FOX Business, telling "Mornings with Maria" host Maria Bartiromo that one sprawling Kentucky truck plant showcases President Donald Trump's vision for the U.S. auto industry.

"This is one of the biggest, most profitable plants in the world. [It's] certainly our most important — it makes the Super Duty, the new Expedition and Navigator, [which are all] super popular vehicles…" Farley said, speaking live from the plant.

Rooted in Louisville, the plant houses over 9,000 employees, providing what Farley coined "good" but "hard" jobs — leaving workers to face temperatures over 100 degrees Fahrenheit during the summer.

"This is what Ford has always believed in. We never left [America], and this is what the president is trying to do to our country, to make these kind of plants, like 10 or 20 more of these across our country, and it will really change our industry."

Trump signed an executive order on Tuesday to soften the tariff blow for U.S. automakers, preventing those already paying tariffs from also being hit with duties on steel and aluminum.
