Why did you and your husband participate in a large Visa IPO in March 2008, especially with legislation affecting credit card companies at that time? Did you consider it a conflict of interest? I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make with your question. Are you suggesting it's acceptable for a speaker to accept a favorable stock deal? You participated in the IPO while being Speaker of the House. Do you believe that wasn’t a conflict of interest or at least appeared to be one? It only appears that way if you base it on a false premise, which isn’t true. I’m unclear on which part you find untrue. Can you clarify? Yes, I can act upon an investment.

Massachusetts, how did you end up with two pharma-backed senators? Let's look at Elizabeth Warren, who is worried about RFK Jr. bringing back polio if he becomes Secretary of HHS. She's received $871,000 from the healthcare industry. I get my data from OpenSecrets, which compiles info from the FEC. Warren condemned Super Packs but now benefits from one. Carla Jervison, a physician, gave $14.6 million to support Warren. Jervison helped fund the new Stanford Medical Center. Pfizer gave Stanford a $3 million grant in 2010 for new curriculum. Stanford professors have received money from Big Pharma companies like Eli Lilly. A Stanford-educated doctor, Casey Means, noted how her education lacked focus on nutrition and exercise, only diagnosis and pills. Is Warren concerned about polio, or protecting her donors' profits?

I'm going to ask you a question about the vaccine. If you pushed the vaccine for your patients, say you had 6,000 patients at that time, what would your income have been? Blue Cross Blue Shield had an incentive program for doctors to administer these shots. If I had vaccinated the 6,000 patients that I treated for COVID, I would have made $1,500,000. The "follow the money" aspect of this is staggering.

I want to talk about waste, fraud, and abuse. People like President Musk and Trump are using their public offices to enrich themselves by billions of dollars. Why is there silence about looking into the actions of the president and the richest man on Earth? I will say President Musk and Trump often use their public offices to enrich themselves. I will withdraw calling Trump "grifter-in-chief." It's despicable that this committee is silencing me for bringing up that Trump is making millions of dollars.

I have never received any money from any foreign source in my entire life. It has come to our attention that the current president has paid significantly more taxes in China, possesses a hidden bank account in China, conducts business in China, and has made claims about me accepting money. However, I want to clarify that I have never accepted any money from any country at any time.

Not few doctors. What you're talking about is there's a big difference, senator, between established science and the the scientific establishment, which has been co opted by the pharmacy Hold on. So you're telling me you're telling the American people that the American Medical Association representing hundreds of thousands of people have been co opted and that they should not trust their doctors Are they all corrupt as well? And I'm telling you, the American Heart Association has been co opted by the flu You were brought in for president. You got a billionaire behind it. You received $300,000 from people, not from the industry, people in it as I did, from individuals. You corrupt, president Trump got $3,000,000 Every republican got corporate PAC money for the pharmaceutical industry, democrats as well Everybody is corrupt, but you? Is that what we're looking at? I don't think so. And I think the issue I don't even know

I am implementing a rebate that cuts out the middlemen in the drug industry, reducing costs and benefiting the people purchasing the drugs. Despite facing opposition from wealthy individuals, I believe this is our only opportunity to make a change. No other president would take the steps I am taking, such as implementing favored nations and buying from other countries at lower prices. These actions have made a lot of rich people unhappy, but I am determined to prioritize the well-being of the people over their profits.

You mentioned that President Trump asked you to address corruption and conflicts of interest, and to close the revolving door between government and the industries it regulates. So, will you commit to not accepting any compensation from drug companies, medical device firms, hospitals, or health insurers for at least four years after leaving this position, including roles as a lobbyist or board member? Can you repeat that last part? Will you refrain from taking money from drug companies in any form? Yes, I can commit to that. I believe it's a straightforward question, and honestly, I don't think any of them would want to give me money anyway. Let's continue.

He wants to appear tough, but it's easy to take advantage of vulnerable people, like an elderly woman. Many in the audience are donors and special interests, which affects their support. The RNC has confirmed that the audience is filled with donors, and the lack of enthusiasm for me stems from my refusal to accept their money. I prioritize doing what's right for the American public over financial contributions. I'm the only one here committed to saving the country without relying on donations.

You don't want RK Jr suing big pharma, right? Check my website; I don’t accept contributions from big pharma executives or corporate PAC money. You and your allies are already aware of this.

I aim to eliminate middlemen and reduce costs in the pharmaceutical industry, allowing the money saved to benefit drug purchasers. Unlike drug companies, who produce tangible products, these middlemen do not contribute in the same way. My enemies, who are wealthy individuals, are displeased with my actions. However, I believe this is our only opportunity to make a change, as no other president would take such steps. This may be my last appearance for a while.

Politicians have long promised to eliminate the discrepancy between drug prices in the U.S. and Europe. This was a key issue for Bernie Sanders, but previous leaders haven't acted on it. Politicians make these promises knowing they likely won't have to fulfill them. The reason is that Congress is heavily influenced by the pharmaceutical industry. There is at least one pharmaceutical lobbyist for every congressman, senator, and Supreme Court member.

We're paying too much for drugs compared to other countries, and existing laws make it hard to lower costs. The middlemen in the drug industry are profiting significantly without adding value. We're going to eliminate these middlemen to reduce drug prices to unprecedented levels. This topic dominated our discussions with executives and others involved.

The speaker states they decided to break the system, referring to drug companies, which they describe as the most powerful lobby in the world with tremendous power over the Senate, the House, governors, and everybody. The speaker notes that drug companies spend billions of dollars. The speaker claims they don't care and have to do what's right.

I don't accept contributions from big pharma executives or corporate PAC money. You and your allies are aware of this.

The speaker acknowledges the strong influence of donors, special interests, and lobbyists over politicians. They claim to have turned down significant amounts of money from these sources, stating that they are not accepting any money from anyone except the people of the country. Speaker 1 brings up the speaker's past relationship with Hillary Clinton, suggesting that it worked for her. The speaker responds by saying that as a businessman, it was their job to get along with people, including politicians. They emphasize that they did a good job in doing so.

Senator Warren, is your acceptance of $520,000 from Big Pharma since 2020 the reason you oppose RFK Jr. suing them? Check my website. I don’t accept contributions from Big Pharma executives or any corporate PAC money, and you know that. Thank you.

I'm asking if you will agree not to sue drug companies. I'm not agreeing to that. As secretary of HHS, you could influence lawsuits in many ways, such as promoting anti-vaccine views, appointing like-minded individuals, or changing vaccine schedules and compensation rules. You could even share FDA data with law firms for their benefit. I'm asking you to commit not to financially benefit from these lawsuits while serving as secretary. I will comply with ethical guidelines. You're trying to undermine vaccines. As secretary, you could harm vaccine access while profiting from it. I support vaccines and the childhood schedule; I just want good science. Then say you won't profit from your role as secretary.

I'm committed to making America healthier than other countries. Will you guarantee the same healthcare coverage that other major countries provide? Corruption isn't just in federal agencies; it's in Congress too. Many members here, including you, accept millions from the pharmaceutical industry to protect their interests. I ran for president and received millions in contributions, but none came from pharmaceutical executives or PACs. My support comes from workers, not corporate interests. You were the largest recipient of pharmaceutical donations in 2020. No, I received support from workers across the country, not from corporations. You still haven't answered the last question.

Senator Warren, is your acceptance of $520,000 from Big Pharma since 2020 the reason you oppose RFK Jr suing them? I don't take contributions from Big Pharma executives or any corporate PAC money, and you know that.

Senator Warren was asked if her acceptance of $5.2 million from Big Pharma since 2020 is the reason she doesn't want RFK Junior suing Big Pharma. Warren responded that she does not take contributions from Big Pharma executives or any corporate PAC money, and that the questioner and their allies already know that.

Hey, Massachusetts! How did you end up with two pharma-friendly senators? Elizabeth Warren recently claimed that RFK Junior as HHS secretary could bring back polio, but let's look at her funding. She's received $491,000 from health professionals, $125,000 from pharmaceuticals, and $108,000 from hospitals, totaling $871,000 from the healthcare industry. Interestingly, she condemned super PACs while benefiting from one funded by Carla Jerviset, who donated $1.46 million. Jerviset has ties to Stanford, which also has connections to Pfizer. Pfizer previously granted Stanford $3 million for curriculum development. Many Stanford professors have received money from big pharma, raising questions about their motives. So, is Warren genuinely concerned about public health, or is she protecting her donors? Let me know your thoughts and follow for more updates!

Pharmaceutical companies spend three times more on lobbying than the next largest lobbyist. This issue was considered radioactive, but President Trump addressed it despite past contributions from pharmaceutical companies, which may have totaled $100,000,000. Unlike other politicians, Trump cannot be bought and is standing up for the American people. Despite claims from figures like Elizabeth Warren and Robert Reich that President Trump is on the side of the oligarchs, no president has been more willing to stand up to them than President Donald Trump. The speaker expressed pride in the President's courage and willingness to stand up for the American people.

Pharmaceutical companies spend three times more on lobbying than the next largest lobbyist. While many discussed the issue, nobody acted due to its controversial nature. President Trump, described as a man of his word, is willing to stand up to the oligarchs, unlike most politicians who can be bought. Despite allegedly receiving $100,000,000 from the pharmaceutical industry, Trump cannot be bought. The speaker praises President Trump for his courage and willingness to stand up for the American people.

I'm going to be the bad guy and I want to get away with as much as possible to enrich myself. You're all my co-conspirators helping me legally. My campaign is entirely funded by corporate PACs, like those from the fossil fuel, healthcare, and big pharma industries. I can even use dark money to pay off people to cover up skeletons. Once elected, I have the power to shape laws without limits. Being funded by oil and gas or big pharma means I can write laws benefiting them without restrictions. I want to get rich, so I can hold stocks in an oil company and then write laws to deregulate the industry, causing the stock value to soar. Does this sound familiar? Our system is broken, with these influences shaping the questions being asked right now.
