Today, President Trump rescinded Executive Order 14087 signed by former President Biden in October 2022.
What did Executive Order 14087 do?
It lowered drug costs for Americans on Medicare and Medicaid—working class Americans.
This only benefits big pharma.

More Democrats need to speak like this. Those that do will be rewarded. It will take a while for the current establishment base and donors to realize it and we're going to lose them and that's good for the long term health of the country. Let them go. Dead weight bringing us down.

Who gave $1 million to Trump’s inaugural fund?
-Each of the 5 biggest tech firms
-The CEOs of Uber & OpenAI
-Auto giants Toyota, Ford, & GM
-Drugmaker behemoth Pfizer
Corporate America is desperate to kiss the ring.
There's nothing they won’t do for a tax break.
