Most-favored-nation drug pricing agreements now in effect

Trump Extends Most-Favored-Nation Drug Pricing Deals to Medicaid in All 50 States, Saving $64 Billion

Imagine walking into a pharmacy and being told you’ll pay three times what a customer in Paris or Tokyo pays for the exact same pill. No special formula, no premium version – just a bigger bill because you happen to live in the United States.

That’s been the reality for American families for decades. The U.S. has long paid nearly three times what other developed nations spend on prescription drugs – a fact that every politician in Washington has lamented and virtually none have fixed. Administrations came and went. Promises piled up like unpaid invoices. The pharmaceutical lobby wrote checks, and Congress looked the other way.

Sound familiar? It should. We’ve been hearing this song our entire lives. But last Friday, something concrete actually happened – and I mean concrete with a dollar sign$ attached.

President Trump announced from the Oval Office that his most-favored-nation drug pricing agreements with pharmaceutical companies are officially being extended to Medicaid programs in all 50 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico. Through the GENEROUS Medicaid Payment Model, states will receive rebates ensuring they never pay more than the MFN price on expensive brand-name drugs.

Twenty-six major pharmaceutical companies – from Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk to AstraZeneca and AbbVie – have signed on voluntarily.

Our Pharmaceutical vulnerability

A nation that cannot make its own essential medicines is a nation living on borrowed security

President Trump has recently signed a new proclamation to swiftly accelerate the onshoring of pharmaceutical manufacturing — one of America’s most strategically vulnerable sectors.

America’s vulnerability runs across all three stages of the medicine-making process. That begins with the raw ingredients, known as key starting materials; extends to the active pharmaceutical ingredients in the second stage; and finally it includes finished dosage forms, such as tablets, capsules, and injectables.

Today, more than half of the branded pharmaceuticals distributed in America are manufactured overseas. Upstream dependence is sharper still. Only 11 percent of active pharmaceutical ingredients manufacturers are in the U.S., compared with 22 percent in China and 44 percent in India. And of all patented active pharmaceutical ingredients sold in the U.S., only 15 percent by volume are made here.

America’s vulnerability runs deeper still at the front end of the supply chain, where more than 40 percent of the key starting materials used in U.S.-approved pharmaceuticals are sole-sourced from China and another 16 percent from India.

While America still leads the world in pharmaceutical discovery, it no longer controls enough of the industrial base to turn that discovery into secure supply. We have become a design-and-discovery superpower with a hollowed-out production base.

Trump's Tariffs are working

Goaded by Tariffs, European Pharmaceutical Industry Pivots to the US

Analysts say drugmakers wouldn’t risk a disadvantage in the United States, the world’s biggest economy and pharmaceutical market.

The U.S. tariff policy and its unmatched pharmaceutical market are pulling European drugmakers to invest more heavily, from new manufacturing plants to U.S. stock listings and discount pricing deals.

Since early 2025, European drugmakers have stepped up their U.S. presence. In the most recent move, the United Kingdom’s giant AstraZeneca announced on Sept. 29 a direct listing on the New York Stock Exchange, just months after pledging $50 billion of U.S. investment by 2030.

The UK-headquartered Indivior dropped its London listing in July to trade solely on Nasdaq, while Swiss giants Roche and Novartis unveiled U.S. expansion plans in April worth $23 billion and $50 billion, respectively. France’s Sanofi has likewise committed at least $20 billion in American projects through 2030.

The moves reflect both the pull of the U.S. market, which accounted for more than half of global prescription medicine sales in 2024, and the push of political signals from Washington.

Following the Sept. 30 deal in which Pfizer agreed to cut Medicaid prices to match those in other developed nations, Swiss lobby Scienceindustries said other European firms may follow with similar “mini-deals.” Director General Stephan Mumenthaler told Reuters he expected announcements “one by one in the coming days and weeks.”

"You’re full of s*** and everyone knows it."

Democrats went nuclear on RFK Jr. and got called out for it

Democrats agenda is to scream, protest, block, call us cruel and immoral and sue Republicans at any opportunity

It's laughable.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. sat through what can only be described as a political lynching disguised as a Senate hearing.

Senator Ron Wyden from Oregon led the charge, accusing Kennedy of "endangering children" and pushing "conspiracy-driven policies" during the Finance Committee hearing.

The Democrat attack dog went full throttle, claiming Kennedy had "no regrets" about a "fundamentally cruel" agenda.

Kennedy fired right back, pointing out that Wyden has been in Washington, D.C. for decades while chronic disease rates have climbed to a staggering 76 percent.

"When I see all these senators trying to lecture and ‘gotcha’ Bobby Kennedy today all I can think is: You all support off-label, untested, and irreversible hormonal ‘therapies’ for children, mutilating our kids and enriching big pharma," Vance wrote on X.

Then came his knockout punch.

"You’re full of s*** and everyone knows it."

Trump demanding Big Pharma lower drug prices

President Trump takes action against Drug Companies

President Trump just sent a letter 𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 the top drug companies in this nation lower drug prices or “we will deploy every tool in our arsenal to protect American families from continued abusive drug pricing practices.”

Karoline mentioned the drug companies have been asking for subsidies to lower prices but the admin refused. We pay 3 times what any other country pays and it’s time that changed.

He gave drugmakers 60 days to commit to four demands: extend “most-favored-nation” pricing to Medicaid, guarantee it for all new drugs, reinvest foreign profits into U.S. patients, and allow direct purchasing at those lower rates.

Trump said Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Medicare chief Dr. Mehmet Oz are ready to implement these measures and called for companies to engage with them “immediately in good faith.”

“If you refuse to step up, we’ll use every tool we have to stop this abuse,” Trump warned. “This is a vital national priority — and Americans need relief now.”

Cutting a deal with Big Pharma before Trump takes office

Congress is pushing a last-minute and massive health reform bill

This cuts a deal with pharma to raise drug costs for patients.

It would be a disaster for the country and for President Trump.

Specifically, Big Pharma is pressuring Congress to ram through a massive pharma bailout that will take more than $50 billion from taxpayers to give to pharma—right before Trump takes office. Big Pharma calls this bailout “delinking” – and it’s pharma’s tool to raise prices on patients.
  •  This bill will be a massive price hike for drugs that patients will blame on President Trump. That’s why pharma is working with Democrats to pass it.
Your premiums would immediately go up if this passes.
  •  This bill undermines President Trump’s commitment to take on Big Pharma – when pharma gets the windfall, Trump will be blamed.
  •  This bill was a top priority of Kamala Harris and Mark Cuban – she campaigned on it and would get a massive consolation prize despite losing. This is the last thing conservatives should do.
In November, Americans voted for President Trump because they think he’ll take on Big Pharma, but instead of that they’ll now see a massive Big Pharma windfall AND hiked health care costs, undoubtedly leaving Americans to think Trump didn’t keep his promise.

Kamala wants to snatch patents from Big Pharma- Communism

Kamala’s Brilliant Idea: Let’s Just Snatch Patents and Call It Fair

"Kamala Harris has always had a way with words, but it’s her actions and past statements that reveal her true intentions.

As she rolls out her flimsy economic plan for 2024, it’s vital that we take a hard look at what she’s said before, especially when she’s not standing behind a podium with a script spewing nothing but happy platitudes.

One resurfaced clip from her 2019 presidential campaign is particularly alarming. In this video, Harris proudly declares that she would “snatch” patents from pharmaceutical companies if they don’t comply with her rules on drug pricing.

Yes, you read that right—snatch patents. It’s a statement so shocking, it screams socialism, or dare we say, communism." [feedsnorth]

Endangered species being used in pharmaceuticals in China

Several Chinese Companies List Endangered Animals As Ingredients

I thought this was interesting in the simple fact that China has little regard to life in general. It is all a means to an end.

A surprising environmental investigation has recently uncovered three publicly traded Chinese pharmaceutical companies that use endangered animals as product ingredients.

Watch video on X

The EIA’s report has not only exposed this environmental wrongdoing but has also called upon global investors in these Chinese pharmaceutical firms, some of whom include major financial institutions such as UBS and HSBC, to divest from their stakes.

Twitter user Data Fox, whose bio says he works in data science, claimed in a tweet that U.S. reliance on Chinese biopharmaceutical exports represents a threat to national security. “Something like 90% of pharma products manufactured in China.

Raising the alarm bell regarding cattle injected with mRNA

Beef Company CEO: “I’ll Shut Down the Company Before We Ship a Single Bag With mRNA-Injected Meat”

Quickly but quietly, Big Pharma and various state governments are working to inject beef and dairy cattle with mRNA “vaccines.” The practice has been happening with pork since 2018 and beef is next on the agenda.

Jason Nelson, CEO of Whole Cows, has been watching the developments closely. His Texas company, which specializes in shelf-stable freeze-dried meat for long-term storage, has vowed to never allow gene therapied cattle to enter the food supply through their products.

“I’ll shut down the company before we ship a single bag of mRNA-injected meat,” he said. “That’s why we’re growing as quickly as possible so we can achieve the buying power to produce large amounts. We’re relatively small now but we want to have a surplus of tens of thousands of bags of beef by 2024.”

This is a despicable act of corruption by Big Pharma and some state governments.

RFK Jr says Fauci and Bill Gates should be prosecuted

RFK Jr.: Fauci And Bill Gates Should Be Criminally Prosecuted For Gross Negligence And Profiting Off COVID

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said Big Pharma and the media have divided the political parties and created racial animus so nobody will notice they are making billions to "execute the controlled demolition of American constitutional democracy."

RFK Jr. said Dr. Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates should be criminally prosecuted for gross negligence and profiting off of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Drug prices were lowered in 2018 by Trump

And it was the first time in 45 years.

Biden Pauses Trump Executive Order Discounting Insulin Prices for Low-Income Americans

“The 340B Program requires drug manufacturers (in exchange for coverage of drugs under Medicaid) to offer substantial discounts to ‘covered entities,’ which include safety net hospitals, community health centers, and other institutions that serve vulnerable populations."

Then-HHS Secretary Alex Azar said at the time, “President Trump has been steadfastly devoted to lowering drug prices for American patients, and that includes ensuring that drug companies are offering the discounts they’re legally required to give to providers that serve the vulnerable.”

Biden put a freeze on it until March 22.
