The Trump administration made several significant moves on Friday, including launching a website to lower prescription drug costs, seeking to deport a five-year-old boy, and seeing the US Ambassador to Poland severing ties with the Polish Speaker. Additionally, a new phone bearing the Trump name was previewed, and former MSNBC host Joy Reid criticized rapper Nicki Minaj for her association with the former president.
The new website, TrumpRx.gov, was announced on Thursday and aims to reduce prescription drug costs for Americans. According to Euronews, the site features over 40 medications from five pharmaceutical companies that reached pricing agreements with the administration. "You're going to save a fortune," Trump said, as reported by Euronews. "This is also so good for overall healthcare."
In a separate development, the Trump administration moved to deport a five-year-old boy detained by ICE agents in Minnesota. Sky News reported that Homeland Security confirmed it would seek to deport Liam Conejo Ramos, though it denied a claim by the boy's lawyer that it was seeking expedited removal. The boy and his father were taken into custody on January 20th.
US Ambassador to Poland Tom Rose took the unprecedented step of severing diplomatic relations with the Speaker of the Polish Parliament, Wlodzimierz Czarzasty. Euronews reported that Rose announced, "As of today, we will no longer maintain contact or communicate with Marshal Czarzisty of the Sejm." The reason for the severed ties was not specified.
Meanwhile, The Verge reported on the upcoming release of the "Trump Phone," the T1 Phone. The Verge spoke to two Trump Mobile executives for an exclusive first look at the phone.
Former MSNBC host Joy Reid criticized rapper Nicki Minaj for aligning with the Trump administration. Fox News reported that Reid called Minaj Trump's "house pet" and made racially-charged insults. Minaj has previously condemned cancel culture and aligned with the Trump administration on issues like stopping the killings of Christians in Nigeria.
