Trump Announces Deal With Drugmakers To Lower Prescription Prices-llllllllllll
President Donald Trump said Friday that Americans will see lower prescription drug prices following agreements reached between his administration and nine major pharmaceutical companies. Trump announced the deals during an event at the White House attended by executives from what he described as nine of the world’s largest drug manufacturers.
He said the companies agreed to offer several flagship medications to U.S. consumers at discounted “most favored nation” prices, Mediaite reported.
Trump said the pricing model would match the lowest price paid for the same drugs anywhere in the world. “In other words, whatever the drug sells for in the world, whatever the lowest number is, we will match that price,” said the president on Friday.
He said Americans have been paying prices that are sometimes ten times higher than those charged in other countries. Trump added that the administration has announced similar price reductions in recent months, including for weight loss drugs such as Ozempic. He said the newly discounted drugs include treatments for diabetes, asthma and blood thinning.
Trump said negotiations with the pharmaceutical companies were difficult but said the companies acknowledged their pricing practices were unfair.
Bloomberg reported that the administration reached the agreements in exchange for a three-year reprieve from potential tariffs on pharmaceutical products.
The White House did not immediately provide details on how the pricing changes would be implemented or when consumers would see the reductions.
Trump said Americans have effectively been subsidizing lower drug prices in other countries for years. “We are not doing it anymore,” Trump said.
He described the agreements as the most significant development related to prescription drugs and drug purchasing.
Trump said the changes would have a major impact on health care costs overall. He said prescription drugs account for a large share of health care spending in the United States.
During the event, Trump turned to Dr. Mehmet Oz, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services administrator, while discussing the potential impact of the agreements. He said the administration wants savings from lower drug prices to benefit consumers directly rather than insurance companies.
He said the White House will continue working on policies aimed at reducing out-of-pocket costs for individuals who purchase their own health insurance.
Trump accused Democrats of being influenced by insurance companies that profit from the current system. He said his administration would not allow insurance companies to capture the savings from lower drug prices.
The announcement comes as Trump has made prescription drug pricing a central focus of his health care agenda.
The administration has previously pursued policies aimed at tying U.S. drug prices to international benchmarks.
Trump has argued that Americans should not pay more than patients in other developed nations for the same medications.
The pharmaceutical industry has historically opposed price controls, arguing they could reduce investment in research and development.
It was not immediately clear how the agreements would affect future drug innovation or pricing negotiations.
The administration has said additional announcements related to health care costs could follow.
Trump signed five Congressional Review Act resolutions into law on Dec. 11, bringing the total number he has approved in 2025 to 22. That total marks the most CRA resolutions signed by any president in a single year since the law took effect in 1996, surpassing the combined total of all previous presidents.
The five resolutions disapproved of Bureau of Land Management resource management plans covering parts of North Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, and northern and central Alaska, Ballotpedia reported.
The Congressional Review Act, signed into law by President Bill Clinton in 1996, allows Congress to review and reject newly issued federal agency rules.
Under the law, Congress has 60 working days to review a rule once it is formally submitted.
Both the House and Senate may pass a joint resolution of disapproval, which is then sent to the president for signature or veto.
BANNED' - Clinton Judge Reads Her Verdict - President Donald Trump Has Been Informed That He Just Beat Gavin Newsom...
JUDICIAL RECKONING
The return of national sovereignty and administrative lethality reached a new milestone this Thursday, April 9, 2026. A blockbuster ruling in Los Angeles has left the DNC establishment and globalist elite reeling.
A federal judge issued a preliminary injunction against California’s controversial "No Secret Police Act," blocking the state from prohibiting ICE agents from wearing masks. Judge Christina Snyder ruled the law unconstitutional, marking a decisive victory for President Donald J. Trump and the Department of Justice.
The court affirmed the Constitution’s Supremacy Clause, stating California cannot discriminate against federal officers while exempting its own law enforcement. Attorney General Pamela Bondi praised the ruling, emphasizing the administration’s zero-tolerance stance on harassment of federal agents.
This decision reflects the 2026 mandate: a legal framework prioritizing the safety of American officers over the sanctuary policies pushed by Governor Gavin Newsom. It signals a sweeping rollback of state overreach in immigration enforcement.
Meanwhile, in Texas, a federal jury delivered historic terrorism convictions against nine members of a radical antifa cell. The group was found guilty for a violent 2025 attack on an ICE detention facility that left a police officer shot in the neck.
Ringleader Benjamin Song faces potential life imprisonment after evidence proved the attack was a coordinated assault using explosives and rifles—not the “noise demonstration” the defense claimed. Prosecutors called the verdict a landmark affirmation of Trump’s domestic terror designation.
With Kash Patel at the FBI and Todd Blanche at the DOJ, the dismantling of extremist cells has accelerated. Federal agencies continue to secure detention centers like Prairieland against those attempting to destabilize the republic.
Governor Gavin Newsom attempted to spin the court ruling as a “win,” citing the upheld “No Vigilantes Act.” But the truth remains: the centerpiece of his anti-ICE agenda—the “No Secret Police Act”—has been effectively struck down.
The defeat exposes the weakening foundation of California’s sanctuary policies. While Sacramento prioritizes the “civil rights” of illegal aliens, the Trump administration is defending the constitutional rights of federal officers.
The week closes as a sweeping administrative triumph for the Trump-GOP platform. From Los Angeles courtrooms to Texas jury boxes, real results—not rhetoric—are forging the 2026 midterm shield.
With 5% GDP growth and a secure border, the nation is reclaiming its stability and sovereignty. America moves forward with vigilance, resolve, and a renewed commitment to law and order.
God bless the USA—and the leaders who refuse to bow to the swamp or the radical mob.
oFar Left 'Squad' Member Learns Her Fate As Her Primary Election is Called
Washington D.C. — The far-left “Squad” took another massive hit Tuesday night as Missouri Democrat Rep. Cori Bush was soundly defeated in her primary by challenger Wesley Bell, who led by double digits with 54.9% to Bush’s 41.8%.
Bush, one of the most extreme voices in Congress, joins Rep. Jamaal Bowman as the second Squad member to lose her seat this cycle. Her defeat is a clear rejection of the radical socialist, anti-police, pro-Hamas agenda she has pushed since entering Congress in 2021.
Bush rose to prominence after participating in the Ferguson riots and has spent years promoting false narratives about Michael Brown while calling for defunding the police — even as violent crime soared in her St. Louis district. She has repeatedly aligned herself with pro-Hamas protesters, blamed Israel for the October 7 massacre, and faced controversy over allegedly funneling thousands of campaign dollars to her husband for “security services” while demanding less police protection for her constituents.
Republicans celebrated the win with well-deserved mockery. Pro-Trump comedian Terrance K. Williams posted:
“A ‘BLACK JOB’ IS SOMETHING CORI BUSH DOES NOT HAVE. OH HAPPY DAY! She is the second Squad member to lose her seat! I can’t wait until they are all gone.”
Florida GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz, who served with Bush on the House Judiciary Committee, sarcastically noted:
“I will miss Cori Bush missing every committee meeting.”
Students for Trump co-founder Ryan Fournier added:
“The Squad’s Cori Bush has LOST her primary. Join me in saying GOOD RIDDANCE! Hamas might be hiring, Cori!”
Even actor Michael Rapaport, a vocal Israel supporter, celebrated:
“Tonight at the rally they said let’s bring back ‘JOY’ to politics and boom CORI BUSH is done with Politics…. I feel JOY all of a sudden.”
This is the second straight blow to the radical Squad. Jamaal Bowman lost his primary earlier after endorsing pro-Hamas demonstrators on college campuses. Both Bush and Bowman blamed their defeats on pro-Israel funding from AIPAC rather than admitting the truth: their extreme, anti-American, and anti-Israel positions have become toxic to voters.
The radical left’s Squad is crumbling because the American people are rejecting their agenda of defunding police, embracing socialism, supporting radical Islamists, and putting foreign interests above American citizens. Voters want secure borders, safe streets, strong economy, and leaders who put America First — not performative radicals who miss committee meetings and push policies that hurt their own districts.
Under President Donald J. Trump’s leadership, the Republican Party is becoming the party of working Americans, law and order, and common sense. Meanwhile, the Democrat Party continues its death spiral — hemorrhaging voters, losing favorability, and watching its most extreme members get rejected at the ballot box.
Cori Bush’s defeat is not just a loss for one radical congresswoman. It is a rejection of the entire Squad’s toxic ideology. The American people are waking up and choosing sanity over socialism, strength over weakness, and America First over America Last.
More Squad members are on the ballot soon. The trend is clear: radicalism is losing, and the America First movement is winning.
