Brand-name prescription drugs invented in America cost more than twice as much in the U.S. as in Canada. Americans deserve better. This week, I introduced bipartisan legislation to save Americans money by allowing them to import their medications from pharmacies in Canada.

Right now, President Zelenskyy is the leader of the free world. He is the one holding up the democratic Western alliance and defending the values that America stood for until last November—values that Europe still upholds today. Jake Broe youtu.be vCnklxASVQ4?si=M_kirXFU3MyQUuvn

I’m not a federal government employee but here are my ‘five bullets’ of what I ‘accomplished’ last week: 1. Pissed off JD Vance 2. Pissed off Elon Musk 3. Taped a hilarious convo with Hasan Minhaj (out next month) 4. Taped a great convo with Jemele Hill 5. Drank more than one chocolate milkshake.
