Episode description

As the United States and China agree to temporarily lower tariffs, President Donald Trump is touting a "reset" with Beijing—while warning that tariffs could be ramped up again if a long-term deal doesn’t materialize. The White House also tells NTD that a 120 percent tariff remains in place for small packages imported from China.

The president today signed a sweeping executive order directing pharmaceutical companies to reduce drug costs. The order aims to bring U.S. drug prices more in line with those paid in other countries. Trump says costs for Medicaid and Medicare will soon drop as a direct result of the new order.

Hamas terrorists have released Israeli-American hostage Edan Alexander, who had been held for more than 19 months in the Gaza Strip. This comes as Trump sets out on a visit to the Middle East. Meanwhile, Israel’s prime minister says hostage negotiations will continue—even under fire.
