Buy American Mandates Will Weaken Our Response To The Coronavirus
Forcing a restructuring of the current pharmaceutical supply chain is a terrible idea. Yet, as a recent Wall Street Journal editorial exemplifies, there is growing support for this ill-considered policy. And, these proposals are not simply mere academic musings. The Trump Administration may implement an Executive Order that would turn this idea ...

It’s Past Time to Defund the World Health Organization
President Trump announced at the White House coronavirus press briefing on Tuesday that the United States will immediately halt all funding for the World Health Organization, because it had caused “so much death” by “severely mismanaging and covering up” the coronavirus’ spread, putting “political correctness over lifesaving measures.” Other government officials, health experts, and ...
