And still sitting today.

And still no text of Trump's "favored nations" #drugpricing executive order.
federalregister.gov/presidential-d…

EOs have limited authority, are difficult to enforce, take months/years to implement & can easily be challenged in court.
And International Pricing Index Model For Medicare Part B Drugs proposed rule still pending.
reginfo.gov/public/do/eoDe…

Still no sight of Trump's favored nations EO text
federalregister.gov/presidential-d…

And @PhRMA said no #drugprices meetings it's aware of this week, despite Trump's claim
Oh, and that health care plan Trump has promised since 2016 - four years ago - still no sight of it yet, either.

So Americans with #PreExistingConditions will just have to keep relying on #Obamacare / #ACA, the law that granted them those protections.
Sept 3, that International Pricing Index Model For Medicare Part B Drugs proposed rule is still pending. reginfo.gov/public/do/eoDe…

Still no sight of Trump's favored nation's EO text
federalregister.gov/presidential-d…

And nothing on Trump's schedule to meet with #pharma on #drugprices
It's into September & that health care plan Trump promised in August hasn't emerged - the same plan he's promised since 2016.

Trump is campaigning in #2020Elections to be re-elected on his unfulfilled 2016 promise.

Meanwhile, #Obamacare still covers #PreExistingConditions.
It's Sept. 4 & still no health care plan from Trump - the one he promised by end of August & the same plan he's promised since 2016.

Trump also said he would copy Obamacare's #PreExistingConditions protections into an executive order.

Nope. [plus, EOs can't replace current law]
Still no text of Trump's "favored nations" #drugpricing order [he said would be out Aug 25]
federalregister.gov/presidential-d…

And that meeting Trump said was happening this week with #pharma & #biotech on #drugprices: NOPE!
It's Sept 9 & still no sign of Trump health care plan - the one he promised by end of August & same one he's promised since 2016. spglobal.com/marketintellig…

No sign of Trump's EO copying #Obamacare's #PreExistingConditions protections or text for favored nations #drugprcing EO.

"Throughout our history we’ve learned this lesson – when dictators do not pay a price for their aggression, they cause more chaos. They keep moving. And, the costs & threats to America & the world keep rising.

Excerpt from @POTUS @JoeBiden #SOTU address.

#Ukraine #Russia #Putin
"American diplomacy matters."

Excerpt from @POTUS @JoeBiden #SOTU address.

#Ukraine #Russia #Putin
"#Putin’s war was premeditated & unprovoked. He rejected efforts at diplomacy. He thought the West & @NATO wouldn’t respond. And, he thought he could divide us here at home.
Putin was wrong. We were ready."

On #FaceTheNation, Trump's #WarpSpeed chief Moncef Slaoui now trying to claim credit for @POTUS @JoeBiden's success w/ #COVID19vaccinations.

Reminder: Trump wanted much lower $$ for #vaccines R&D. Congress went higher with $8.3B/rejected Trump's $2.5B.
spglobal.com/marketintellig…
Another reminder: Trump had no idea #NIH & $MRNA had started on a #COVID19 vaccine in mid-January 2020 based on research funded by the @BarackObama administration.
spglobal.com/marketintellig…

Trump himself claims he first heard of #coronavirus in late January.

#FaceTheNation #FTN
Also, NIH & U.S. companies were long into #COVID19 #vaccines R&D before Moncef Slaoui came on the scene with Operation #WarpSpeed.

Slaoui doing a lot of rewriting of history on #FaceTheNation today.

.@VP @KamalaHarris notes trip to #Georgia was supposed to be about #AmericanRescuePlan. But then, Asian-Americans were attacked/8 people killed.

"And we were reminded yet again that the crises we face are many that the photos we face are many."

"#Racism is real in America."
.@VP @KamalaHarris: For the last year we've had people in positions of incredible power scapegoating Asian-Americans. People with the biggest pulpits spreading this kind of hate.

#Georgia #racism
.@VP @KamalaHarris: A harm against any one of us is a harm against all of us.

The president and I will not be silent. We will not stand by. We will always speak out against violence, hate crimes & discrimination, wherever and whenever it occurs.
