A left-wing judge handpicked by Hawaii Senators “Crazy” Mazie Hirono and Brian “Piece of” Schatz just handed a massive win to one of the biggest targets President Donald Trump is taking on in his second term, and it affects most of us.
At the State of the Union the president brough up this big fight, making it clear he intends to keep crushing prescription drug prices instead of living in pharma’s pocket like so many politicians have.
Reining in drug prices — that’s a big one. It’s important, it’s America-first, and it’s righting a long-time wrong. But not everyone in government is on board.
Which brings us to a terrible little federal courtroom in Hawaii.
U.S. District Judge Shanlyn Park is a Joe Biden appointee sitting in maybe the most pathetically Blue state in America (yeah, even more Democrat than California or New York in the 2024 election). And ol’ Park has refused to toss out most all of the pharmaceutical industry’s lawsuits against Hawaii’s Act 143 — a law that simply required drug companies to actually deliver 340B drugs to contract pharmacies serving low-income patients.
