President Trump

So if you appoint in Virginia or in New Jersey or in California a U.S.

attorney or a judge,

I mean, the judge situation is ridiculous.

The only people that you can get by are Democrats, because they will put a hold on it.

If I put up George Washington and Abraham Lincoln to be U.S.

Attorney in New Jersey or to be U.S.

Attorney in Virginia, where you have Democrat senators, they will not approve them.

And this is a gentleman's agreement that's lasted for too long.

We'll look into it.

But no, I wouldn't have wanted that, not a second strike.

The first strike was very lethal.

It was fine if there were two people around.

But Pete said that didn't happen.

I have great confidence.

Speaking from the Oval Office, President Trump announced a deal with Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk for their GLP-1 drugs that treat diabetes and obesity.

The deal includes coverage by Medicare and Medicaid, which could mean new customers for the companies, and the administration says about 10 percent of Medicare enrollees will be eligible.

The drugs will also be available to purchase online in a direct-to-consumer marketplace that the Trump administration plans to launch, called TrumpRx.

I'll be going to Egypt most likely.

That's where everybody is gathered right now.
