TrumpRx, the website launched by the Trump administration Thursday to sell discounted prescription drugs directly to consumers, is offering a whole lot less than advertised.
The drugs offered on the site are all from brand-name manufacturers,
making them more expensive than generic brands.
Almost all of the drugs are also covered through insurance already.
The product pages on the website even say, “If you have insurance, check your co-pay first—it may be even lower.…

A few conservative representatives with ties to the FBI and the Justice Department have spilled that
the true details of the Epstein files are “worse” for Trump than previously reported, according to journalist David Schuster.
Michael Wolff, a longtime chronicler of Trump’s White House who conducted extensive interviews with Epstein prior to his death, told The Daily Beast last month that
