The site, TrumpRx.gov, is intended to be a portal where people can search for specific drugs and potentially find manufacturers who sell them direct to consumer, though people will still need a prescription.

The administration has claimed Americans will save money on the site, though researchers who study drug pricing say that likely won't be true across the board.

For example, they warn that some Americans with health insurance could overpay if they use the site.

But people without insurance may find lower prices on TrumpRx than if they walked into a pharmacy.

And today in the Middle East, some of President Trump's top advisers are set to hold talks with Iran as Trump has turned up pressure on the country.

Jared Kushner, the president's son-in-law, along with Steve Witkoff, Trump's special envoy, will meet face-to-face with Iran's foreign minister in Oman.

Trump has recently moved warships into the region and has threatened to strike Iran unless it agrees to a number of his demands.

That includes freezing its nuclear program, reducing its stockpile of ballistic missiles, and ending support for militant groups.

Middle Eastern diplomats tell The Times they want the Americans to focus just on Iran's nuclear program.

They're worried that the other demands could doom the talks before they even get started.

Hiroko Tabuchi covers the environment and pollution for The Times.

She's been reporting on how the Trump administration's plans for Venezuela and its oil have set off alarm bells in one small American town.

It sits on the Gulf Coast, and it has a massive, specialized Chevron refinery.

It's one of the few places in the country that can process the specific kind of oil that comes from Venezuela.

Jiroko says that since the administration has moved to boost Venezuelan oil exports, residents there are bracing for what that could mean for them.

One resident told Heroco that sometimes the air smells like, quote, acid strong enough to take your breath.

And Chevron's own monitors show occasional spikes in benzene, a carcinogen.

Now, with the possibility that more Venezuelan oil could start being processed next door, some people there are doubling down on demands for Chevron to buy out their houses and pay for them to move elsewhere.

One resident of 30 years said she didn't mind the oil giant operating there, but said, quote, just get us all out.

For its part, Chevron says it has safely processed Venezuelan-style oil for decades.
