need to do because they need to do it. And it's none of my business if it doesn't bother me. And it doesn't. So I do wonder about the tradeoff because if somebody shows up in their trans identity, uh wouldn't that be harder for the passport people to sort that out? So aren't we trying to make sure that it's easier faster? Easier or faster would be um I'm trans. And then the person looks at him, they go, "Oh, okay. You do look maybe they do look a little bit male. Maybe they got an Adam's apple or something. I'm no expert on any of this stuff." Uh and then that would perfectly explain why they were looking one way but listed as another way. Wouldn't that be safer? If if the only thing you care about is how safe you are, wouldn't you be safer if they listed themselves the way they look, so you could know exactly what's going on there? No. All right. So, I'm a little bit mixed on this one. I I think I could be persuaded in either direction, but that's what happened. So, I guess it's a done deal for now.

Um, did you see the video of Trump was announcing that uh they they made a tremendous success in lowering the cost of these weight loss drugs? So, um, who is involved? Uh, it's less it's less about the pharma, but there were a few pharma companies that got together and vastly lowered their cost for the weight loss drug from something like $1,000 to something like a hundred something. So, a gigantic decrease in probably the most important thing. Now, the the news part of it is that Trump is delivering on at least lowering the cost of some important drugs. But here's the part you might have missed. When uh RFK Jr. was talking about it, he had his moment to talk there at the Oval Office with all the executives assembled. And we'll talk about the the the guy who passed out, but uh RFK Jr. is explaining to us um what a big lever this is because something like half of all of our health care costs are driven by obesity and we could practically eliminate it with these drugs if they were affordable and and Trump just made them affordable for a lot more people not everybody of course but we'll have to figure out a way that everybody can get them but this goes a long way goes a long way to lowering your health care costs because it lowers them two ways it's not just immediately lowering them because you wanted to take the fat drug, but you know, you couldn't afford it, but now you can. But on top of that, he said that uh obesity is driving 50% of our health care costs. Had you ever heard that before? 50%. I knew it was a lot. But here's what I like about RFK Jr.'s approach to everything. He finds the best lever. He doesn't go for the low hanging fruit. He goes for he goes for the high hanging lever because if you can get that lever you change everything. You imagine if the United States became not an obese country 50% of I I think half of all adults are obese. If he took that down to 25% just by this action that would be one of the greatest accomplishments certainly of any cabinet member. You may be the greatest accomplishment of any cabinet member. And I don't think it would have happened without RFK Jr. Do you do you think this would have happened with just a some kind of normal, you know, ordinary corporate guy who got the job because he was connected to somebody or something? No. No. Trump took a took a chance and now you're seeing that uh his his instinct is good. Trump's instinct that he could go with somebody who's a lifelong Democrat and it would help America. That was a tough choice. Do do you do you even understand how tough that was? If this had not worked out and RFK Jr. had turned out not to be the man that he is, this would be a total problem. But not only is he the man that he is, but he might be more than the man that he is. You know, you might not even understand the level of sacrifice that he that he's taking and has taken just to get to that point where he could stand in front of the country and say, "You're all going to get the fat drug or close to it." Amazing. Amazing accomplishment.

All right. But the drama was that one of the executives who was there to just attend, he was in the background, he had some kind of medical event. We don't know the details. We don't need to. He's we're we're told that he's fine now, but he he passed out. Now, what
