President Donald Trump made a striking claim during a recent White House press event, telling those gathered that an unnamed new drug has the ability to bring patients back from death’s door.

“We know the drug works,” Trump, 79, said during the press conference at the White House on Monday, May 11, per a clip shared on X. “We’ve taken people that were dead. We had a person given the last rites — gone, the kids are crying and everything — and started them on this drug. And the person became better. It works.”

Right to Try Act

I’m going off rip here because I haven’t educated myself on it, but this seems suspiciously like the Citizen’s United of human testing at first glance and because Trump is promoting it.
