Absolutely wild that this is presented as something the drug companies are doing and not a law that the Biden admin passed.

This is a post taken directly from the official account of WCK.
These are the heroes of WCK who were killed by IDF pigs. 1 from Palestine, 1 from Poland, 1 from Australia, 1 from USA, and 3 from UK.
6 of them aren't Palestinian.
None of them are combatant.
If you still think even for one second that those israeli pigs are the victim, that their actions are justified, or even give a single damn about humans' life you're lying to yourself or you're just as much of a pig as they are.

Sorry I'm kind of dissociated and my vocab crashes during that can you explain the Biden drug thing in just. Shorter simple sentences.
Sure! You're not the only one who's mentioned being unclear on what it means either, and I'm happy to help
(Context for anyone else: US Sets Policy to Seize Patents of Government-Funded Drugs if Price Deemed Too High, via Good News Network, December 11, 2023)
From the very basics:
When drug companies create new drugs, they get a legal protection called a "patent." The patent means no one else can make or sell the same drug for whatever number of years.
Usually, this is about 10 years after the drug starts being sold to the public.
So, for those years, that one drug company is the only source of whatever medication. And since people need their medication, drug companies can charge however much money they want.
Meaning a lot of drugs that people need to live cost way too much money to buy.
So, with this, Biden told drug companies "Fuck you, if you keep making medicine too $$$ for people to afford, I'm giving your competition the right to make and sell those drugs too."
The US has never done anything like this before.
This is a huge threat to the whole (awful) drug industry in the US. It will save people thousands of dollars. If he does this, it will save lives.

Edit 12/17/23: Quick note, as people have said in the notes, this only applies to drugs made in part using taxpayer money. Which is! Literally all of them!

Looks like the biden admin is showing the first signs of caving regarding its support for the israeli gvt and is attempting to distance him from it. This should not be allowed to happen. He has a hand in this genocide and stepping away is not enough.
The most recent statements have changed from overt support for israel to a concession that israel's civilian killings are too much, but he's now claiming to be unable to exert enough influence to stop them. This is not true. He is trying to continue allowing it while avoiding culpability when he should be opposing it directly.
Nicknames like genocide joe and genocidin biden seem to have his campaign afraid that he might not win a second term if he keeps aiding ethnic cleansing. Good. Until he halts all material aid he should still be treated as an ongoing genocide supporter. And even after that he will never be clean of the lives of the people he helped put to death.

The Biden administration announced Wednesday it is forgiving a total of $1.2 billion in student debt for roughly 153,000 borrowers.
The relief comes through the Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) repayment plan, which made changes to income-driven repayment plans in the wake of a Supreme Court decision overturning President Biden’s more ambitious student loan debt cancellation plan.
The first batch of loan forgiveness through the SAVE plan was planned for July, but the Education Department identified eligible borrowers sooner.
“This plan reflects our unapologetic commitment to deliver as much relief as possible to as many borrowers as possible, as quickly as possible,” Education Secretary Miguel Cardona said on a Tuesday call with reporters. “We’re providing real, immediate breathing room from an unacceptable reality where student loan payments compete with basic needs.”
Under the SAVE plan, those who borrowed less than $12,000 can have their debt forgiven after 10 years of payments. The Education Department will reach out next week directly to borrowers who are eligible for relief but are not currently enrolled in the SAVE plan.
The White House has in recent months been rolling out additional announcements on student debt relief as Biden seeks to deliver on his problem to wipe out what millions of Americans owe in loans.

Wenn die USA es ablehnen „Palästinenser“ zu sagen, ist die Verurteilung irrelevant – Meinung
Verurteilungen sind nur dann von Bedeutung, wenn die Administration Biden bereit ist die Seite auch zu nennen, die verurteilt wird. Stephen M. Flatow, Jerusalem Post, 27. August 2023 Ein IDF-Soldat auf Patrouille am letzten Sonntag in Huwara, wo ein israelischer Vater und sein Sohn am Tag zuvor niedergeschossen wurden. Die USA wollen die Öffentlichkeit nicht dran erinnern, dass palästinensische…

Israeli politicians are telling you this, flat out.
They are bragging about it, in fact.
Sorry, but you don’t have to be Miss Marple to suspect these Israeli ministers aren’t good folks.
