Watch live: #Trump & *#Health* Secy #RFKJr to speak soon on #DrugPrices.
Trump plans to sign a wide-reaching #ExecutiveOrder on Monday directing drugmakers to lower the prices of their #medicines to align w/other countries.
White House ofcls said the govt will give drugmakers price targets in the next 30 days, & will take further action to lower #prices if those companies do not make "significant progress" towards those goals within 6 months.

I was with Shireen Abu Akleh when she was murdered on May 11, 2022. The Palestinian resistance in Jenin killed her murderer, but I find myself asking, was justice served, or did he escape accountability?
"I used to say the evening that I developed the first x-ray photograph I took of insulin in 1935 was the most exciting moment of my life. But the Saturday afternoon in late July 1969, when we realized that the insulin electron density map was interpretable, runs that moment very close."

and here's here's a bit of natural ultramarine (aka lazurite, or lapis lazuli) from the Mardan-y-Char mine at Sar-e-Sang, Afghanistan, in the Hunterian Museum collection, Glasgow.
The intensity of this colour is pretty accurate - this is close to the "eye" grade of the most intense blue used for jewellery. Broken coarse crystals known as "lajuaat crystal" grade are still used for pigment production from this mine.

in reply to Nonilex • • •#Trump said on social media on Monday that #DrugPrices would be cut by 59%.
The estimate followed comments he made on Sunday that he would sign the order pursuing "most favored nation" pricing, resulting in cuts of 30% to 80%.
The White House did not specify any targets.
The #ExecutiveOrder differed from what drugmakers had been expecting.
Four #lobbyist sources told Reuters they were expecting an executive order that called for "most favored nation" pricing on a subset of #Medicare #drugs.
Nonilex
in reply to Nonilex • • •#Trump's order also directs the government to consider facilitating direct-to-consumer purchasing programs that would sell #drugs at the #prices other countries pay.
Americans pay the highest prices for #prescription drugs, often three times what people in other developed countries pay.
#medicine
Nonilex
in reply to Nonilex • • •Listening to this guy ramble is making my ears bleed. He is so stupid & a disgusting braggart. And he seems incapable of saying anything that isn’t a lie.
#Trump is making statements about the #China #trade talks that don’t match what officials have actually said about what resulted from the meetings in Europe.
#FactCheck #TrumpLies
Nonilex
in reply to Nonilex • • •#Trump has now veered dramatically off topic, to praise #JeaninePirro, his longtime friend, #FauxNews host & current pick to serve in some temporary *capacity* [incapacity] as #USattorney in #DC. He *digresses* about the ratings of “The Five” on Fox News.
#idiocracy #kakistocracy #law
Nonilex
in reply to Nonilex • • •#Trump, who is making a #prescription #drug announcement, is now riffing about “the fat drug,” meaning Ozempic or something comparable, that he said a “seriously overweight” & “wealthy” friend told him he was paying way too much for in the United States compared to the price in London.
Now he’s claiming that cutting drug prices will pay for the #GoldenDome w/money left over. Of course he goes off on a tangent claiming Biden made the US unsafe so the golden dome is necessary.
#idiocracy
Nonilex
in reply to Nonilex • • •#Drug #prices are insanely high in the #US, but #Trump as usual is grossly exaggerating.
Trump is scheduled to leave the White House for his foreign trip in 20 minutes. He has yet to sign the executive order on drug prices.
Nonilex
in reply to Nonilex • • •In his first term, #Trump was focused on ensuring that Americans got the lowest #drug #prices. Now, he seems much more concerned about making sure Europeans pay more.
Trump has still not described any specific legal mechanism for lowering #DrugPrices.
Trump claims prices could come down somewhere between 59% & 90%
Nonilex
in reply to Nonilex • • •🤣🤣#Trump said he came up with what he calls a new word: “equalize.” He said he uses it to describe what he wants the executive order to impact in terms of drug pricing.
Now #RFKJr is talking. He’s as bad as Trump.
RFKJr said Trump is telling the Europeans they have to raise the price they charge for drugs. So does that mean Trump isn’t so much lowering the cost for Americans but dictating what other countries charge to “equalize” costs?
#idiocracy
Nonilex
in reply to Nonilex • • •Both #Trump & #RFKJr, the #HHS secretary, have been falsely claiming that #Democrats have done nothing about high #drug #prices. Democrats passed legislation to allow #Congress to negotiate on the price of some drugs in #Medicare during the #Biden administration.
In fact TV Dr Oz is now pointing to the #IRA [Inflation Reduction Act] which was the Biden bill.
Nonilex
in reply to Nonilex • • •#Trump is talking again.
The fact is this #ExecutiveOrder is meaningless.
It is correct that Americans pay substantially higher #prices for #drugs than peer nations. But that reality reflects the very different #legal rules governing #drug purchasing.
This order will not change that.
#law #medicine
Nonilex
in reply to Nonilex • • •#Trump is now talking about the new $400 million plane that #Qatar is just gifting him.
He starts off by complaining that the #ExecutiveOrder he signed for a new plane in January hasn’t resulted in anything.

in reply to Nonilex • • •Nonilex
in reply to Nonilex • • •Unreal. “White farmers are being brutally killed,” #Trump says of the #Afrikaners being brought to the #US as #refugees. He says he doesn’t care about “their race, their color, their height,” but that if it was the “other way around” — meaning Black farmers being harmed — it would be a news story, & this isn’t. He claims “it’s a genocide going on. But you people don’t want to write about it.”
He is lying. The assertions of mass kililngs are false.

Trump says he could reject #Qatar’s offer of the free jetliner or simply say thanks for the gift. He then invokes a golf analogy suggesting that following rules when one doesn’t have to is foolish.
