What happened

Well supportedReported by 10 independent outlets

Apple has agreed to partner with Intel to design and manufacture chips on American soil. This collaboration is part of a broader effort to diversify chip supply chains away from reliance on a single source like TSMC. The U.S. government is reportedly involved, holding a 10% stake in Intel, which is receiving support for its domestic manufacturing efforts.
