So if your rx is $50.00 the pharmacy will pay you $500.00 to come pick it up. Cool.

There it is: $20 billion for Argentina at the same time they’re taking markets away from our farmers.

Trump and Hegseth give Qatar an airbase in Idaho and Qatari pilots will be flying jets over American airspace. Their lavish gifts and personal business deals with Trump worth billions really paid off for them.
