Podcast: Trump Backs U.S. Wealth Fund, Echoing My Book and Speech To Congress
Posted November 28, 2024
On September 6, 2024, Donald Trump made a groundbreaking announcement during his speech at the Economic Club of New York. He expressed strong support for the creation of a U.S. Sovereign Wealth Fund, saying:
“We’ll create America’s own sovereign wealth fund to invest in great national endeavors for the benefit of all Americans. This will be used to do things that will be great for our country… state-of-the-art manufacturing hubs, advanced defense capabilities, cutting-edge medical research, and saving billions of dollars by preventing disease in the first place.”
This is extraordinary news for America’s future. It also reflects the core argument of my latest book, The Money Revolution: How to Finance the Next American Century. In this book, I advocate for bold, multi-trillion-dollar investments to secure the United States’ economic leadership in the 21st century.
My Ways and Means Committee Speech
In February 2023, I had the honor of presenting these ideas to 15 members of the House Ways and Means Committee at a policy dinner in Washington. The core of my message was clear: The U.S. must invest aggressively in the industries and technologies of the future to ensure economic growth, global leadership, and national security.

Why It Matters
The first American Century does not have to be the last. By acting boldly and strategically, we can make it the first of many. A U.S. Sovereign Wealth Fund could channel resources into state-of-the-art manufacturing, advanced defense capabilities, and cutting-edge medical research. These investments would yield returns not only in financial terms but in the form of enhanced national security, improved public health, and sustained global leadership.
