On April 23, 2026, President Trump announced during an video event about Health Care Affordability that Regeneron is lowering their prescription prices for Americans.
The reduced cost pharmaceutical medicines that Regeneron is offering to Americans are available on TrumpRx.gov. In addition, in the agreement, Regeneron is offering Otarmeni, a new gene therapy for a rare type of genetic deafness, to US patients (specifically minors) at no cost. Otarmeni was approved today through the FDA Commissioner's National Priority Voucher Program. This Voucher Program prioritizes accelerated review of products that align with critical national priorities.
So far, Pfizer, Astra Zeneca, EMD Serono, Eli Lilly, Novo Nordisk, Amgen, Bristol Myers Squibb, Boehringer Ingelheim, Genentech, Gilead Science, GSK, Merck, Novartis, Sanofi, Johnson & Johnson, AbbVie and now Regeneron have signed agreements with the Trump Administration to offer MFN (Most Favored Nation) pricing to Americans. The Fact Sheet concludes that President Trump is fulfilling his promises to American patients.
On April 23, 2026, The White House published the video President Trump is Making the Reflecting Pool Beautiful Again. In the video, President Trump reminded us that Martin Luther King made his great speech at the Reflecting Pool. Others have given speeches there as well.
The pool was built in 1922. It is 2,000 feet long by 167 feet wide. It currently has no water in it because it has been leaking like a sieve for many years. It is filthy. It has not worked for many years.
It's a good thing President Trump has a construction background. They were going to remove the granite, replace it with stone, take more than 3 years, and cost over $300 million. He called the people who used to do swimming pools for him. They told him they could refurbish the Reflecting Pool for $1.5 to $2 million. They would scrub the surface of the existing granite, then grout it. It would take about 2 weeks. Then add an industrial grade swimming pool topping in American Flag blue color. The refurbishment should last 40 or 50 years.
Expect lawsuits. Probably something about the competitive bidding process. Or, like the Ballroom, about the approval process. The loony left will think of some reason to file another lawsuit in the DC activist courts.
On April 23, 2026, the Office of the First Lady published the statement First Lady Melania Trump Leads Call for Shared Commitment to Transform Lives Nationwide during the traditional First Lady's Luncheon where spouses of Members of Congress, Administration officials, business leaders, and philanthropists are invited to participate. During this year's luncheon, she acknowledged that as First Lady, she cannot succeed alone in changing people's lives for the better. She highlighted her various efforts under the BE BEST umbrella: such as the AI Workshop, the TAKE IT DOWN Act, and Fostering the Future for Foster Youth aging out of the foster care system. Here are the First Lady's full remarks:
Good afternoon. It is a privilege to take part in this great American tradition, and a pleasure to have our Second Lady, Usha Vance, with us today. I commend Chairwoman Allen, President Dunn, and their entire team for bringing everyone together to advance the greater good of our community.
America’s children are our moral equals. As parents and leaders, it is our ethical obligation to ensure our kids develop emotionally and physically within a safe environment. Last week, I shared this declaration with members of the prestigious Ways and Means Committee on Capitol Hill. We convened to advance landmark legislation to protect the foster care community.
This follows the Fostering the Future Executive Order signed last November. I remain impressed by our Representatives’ bipartisan commitment and am confident this will soon become the “law of the land.” When passed, this will mark the second piece of legislation I have championed for the protection of America’s next generation.
The world doesn’t move for those who stop. Over the past year, with discipline and focus, I have enacted several initiatives to benefit our children. Domestically, Fostering the Future has expanded coast to coast to roughly 33 percent of the states in our country. Fostering the Future university scholarship programs are available for individuals aging out of foster care in Georgia, Arizona, California, Nebraska, New York, Florida, Louisiana, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Alabama, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. The TAKE IT DOWN Act is the first piece of legislation that I supported within the first 100 days of this 47th presidential administration. On April 7th, just a few weeks ago, the U.S. Department of Justice secured its first conviction under the new law. $30 million was allocated towards HUD’s 2026 budget to support housing for America’s foster youth. Representative Steve Womack and Secretary Scott Turner supported my efforts to implement this critical measure.
Progress is not granted—you must be the composer. Embolden your influence in the community with a strong vision to the future. All 50 states are participating in the Presidential AI Challenge, and almost 3,000 schools nationwide joined the White House AI Workshop. Our educators, students, and academic administrators understand the importance of mastering new technology. Over the past two months, America sat at the intersection of youth, technology, and education on the global stage. I am honored to have had the opportunity to address the United Nations Security Council about the importance of peace through education. We are not here to prepare our children for yesterday’s world. Be purposeful with your objectives and remember that AI accelerates everything.
Leaders from almost 50 nations joined me at the White House and the State Department for Fostering the Future Together’s Global Coalition Summit. Never before has an American First Lady welcomed so many leaders to the White House for diplomatic purposes in one day. I am proud that America’s best technology companies, including Meta, Palantir, OpenAI, Adobe, Zoom Communications, X, and Microsoft, had the chance to advance our mission: to empower children with technology and education.
And of course, I completed the fourth reunification of Ukrainian and Russian children with their families. As you can imagine, this is no easy feat, but I applaud leadership from both nations in working with my representative and me to bring love and safety back to each individual who has been displaced as a result of this horrible war.
I am grateful for the opportunity to serve as First Lady, but understand that my persistence alone is not enough. Together, we can change people’s lives for the better. Please join me in advancing the BE BEST Fostering the Future initiative nationwide. America’s children will ultimately protect our future freedom.
On April 23, 2026, Day 68 of the Democrat's Partial Federal Government Shutdown,
Establishes the congressional budget for the federal government for FY2026, sets forth budgetary levels for FY2027-FY2035, and provides reconciliation instructions for legislation that increases the deficit.
The resolution recommends levels and amounts for FY2026-FY2035 for
federal revenues,
new budget authority,
budget outlays,
deficits,
public debt,
debt held by the public, and
the major functional categories of spending.
It also recommends levels and amounts for Social Security and Postal Service discretionary administrative expenses for the purpose of budget enforcement in the Senate.
The resolution includes reconciliation instructions that direct the House Homeland Security Committee, the House Judiciary Committee, the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, and the Senate Judiciary Committee to submit recommendations for legislation that will increase the deficit over FY2026-FY2035 by not more than $70 billion. Each committee must submit the recommendations to the House or Senate Budget Committee by May 15, 2026.
(Under current law, reconciliation bills are considered by Congress using expedited legislative procedures that prevent a filibuster and restrict amendments in the Senate.)
In addition, the resolution establishes reserve funds that allow certain adjustments to committee allocations and other budgetary levels to accommodate (1) reconciliation legislation, and (2) legislation that would not increase the deficit over FY2026-FY2035 and supports changes to immigration enforcement and border security policy undertaken by the President.
Finally, the resolution sets forth budget enforcement procedures that address issues such as budget points of order in the Senate and emergency spending requirements in the House.
The Senate then adjourned at 3:46am on April 23, 2026. They will reconvene at 3pm on April 27, 2026.
voted on HR5587 in a yea-and-nay vote passed 231 to 186 with 12 members not voting.
The House then adjourned. They will reconvene at noon on April 27, 2026.
So, it looks like the Senate finally got DHS funded. BUT, they did NOT do anything on the SAVE America Act, or any of the other EOs President Trump has enacted that We The People voted to have implemented!
133 Presidential Orders, Memoranda, Determinations, Permits, and Notices
On April 23, 2026, the FR published 6 Presidential Determinations that were signed on April 20, 2026 (all 6 were discussed in my April 21, 2026 ANP Article):
On April 21, 2026, Judge April M Perry made a judgement in the civil case:
Hearing held 4/20/2026 on Defendants' motion to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction 129 . For the reasons stated in open court, the Court finds that this case is moot, and therefore dismisses the matter with prejudice. Defendants are directed to file by 4/23/2026 either a publicly-available redacted version of the memorandum relied upon by the Court in its ruling (including the header information, references, and GENTEXT/Remarks paragraph 1) along with a motion to seal the remaining portions of the memo explaining why sealing is justified, or a fully publicly-available copy of the memorandum. Civil case terminated.
On April 21, 2026, Honorable Jeffrey T Gilbert entered a notification of docket entry:
In light of the District Judge's order [150], all matters relating to the referral of this case having been resolved, this matter is being returned to the assigned District Judge. Referral terminated.
As we have seen in other court cases, if the situation resolves before the court makes a binding judgement, all actions on the case are dismissed and the case is terminated. So, the next time the President has to send in NICE (National Immigration and Customs Enforcement) to handle the crime and unlawfulness, they will have to start with a brand new lawsuit.
First person to send news of the start of the War to other Colonies.
Joseph and his brother-in-law invested in several businesses (such as a textile mill, glass works, chocolate mill, salt works, and spermacetti factory), building a glassworks in Germantown, Massachusetts. Joseph bought out his brother-in-law by 1960 to become sole owner of the various businesses.
In 1746, Joseph Married Mary Cranch (1720-1790). The couple had 3 children, all of whom survived to adulthood.
By 1770, Joseph was fully integrated into the Patriot's view. Joseph fought in the Siege of Boston, Battle of Lexington (discussed in my September 27, 2025 ANP Article), and Battle of Bunker Hill (discussed in my June 18, 2025 ANP Article).
On April 19, 1775, after the start of the Battle of Lexington, Joseph, who had removed himself to Waterford, wrote a missive now called the Lexington Alarm to warn and rally colonists between Lexington and Philadelphia. The missive stated:
To all the friends of American liberty be it known that this morning before break of day, a brigade, consisting of about 1,000 to 1,200 men landed at Phip's Farm, at Cambridge, and marched to Lexington, where they found a company of our colony militia in arms, upon whom they fired without any provocation, killed six men and wounded four others. — By an express from Boston, we find another brigade are now upon their march from Boston, supposed to be about 1,000. The Bearer, Israel Bissell, is charged to alarm the country quite to Connecticut, and all persons are desired to furnish him with fresh horses, as they may be needed. — I have spoken with several persons who have seen the dead and wounded; pray let the delegates from this colony to Connecticut see this, they know Col. Foster of Brookfield one of the delegates.
Joseph sent Israel Bissell (discussed in my April 22, 2026 ANP Article) to Philadelphia to inform the Continental Congress, and all the colonies along the way, of the start of the war.
In 1776, Joseph was commissioned as a Brigadier General of the Suffolk County Militia. He also participated in intelligence gathering missions. He also commanded the unsuccessful attack on the British at Newport, Rhode Island.
After the war, Joseph resumed his business interests. However, debts incurred during the war (he used his own money to support the war effort) and his poor health forced a move to Dorchester where he rented a home from John Adams. He established a salt works in 1784 on the Boston Neck, operating the salt works until his death.
Joseph died December 25, 1788 at age 72, in Dorchester, Massachusetts. He is interred at Central Burying Ground, Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts.
* Just a note about the video below, the narrator says it was Isaac Bissell who went to Philadelphia. This is is incorrect. Isaac Bissell went elsewhere. Israel Bissel is the one Joseph sent to Philadelphia.
Those are some of the exact words used by Google’s censors, aka 'Orwellian content police,' in describing many of our controversial stories. Stories later proven to be truthful and light years ahead of the mainstream media. But because we reported those 'inconvenient truths' they're trying to bankrupt ANP.
