Episode Details

President Trump gathers in the Oval Office to announce a landmark Most Favored Nation drug pricing deal with Regeneron, the 17th and final pharmaceutical company to sign on, representing 86% of the branded drug market. The announcement includes a gene therapy that restored hearing to two year old Travis Smith, offered free to all eligible American children. Trump also confirms medical marijuana is being rescheduled to Schedule III. The press conference pivots quickly to updates on the Iran military operation, where Trump insists Iran's navy is at the bottom of the sea and the Strait of Hormuz stays closed until a deal is signed. He closes with a detailed and somehow charming tangent about the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool getting a $1.5 million renovation instead of the previously planned $301 million overhaul.
