Until now, Americans could buy drugs from Canadian pharmacies, but states could not purchase them in bulk for Medicaid programs, government clinics or prisons. Florida is the first to earn approval. Supporters hope that the policy shift, backed by both President Biden and Donald Trump, will lead to similar authorization for other states and help rein in drug prices. But significant hurdles remain. The pharmaceutical industry fiercely objects to the plan and is expected to file a lawsuit to prevent it from going into effect in Florida. The Canadian government has taken steps to block the export of prescription drugs that are in short supply. “Canada’s drug supply is too small to meet the demands of both American and Canadian consumers,” a spokeswoman for Canada’s health agency said.

The N.R.A. said LaPierre cited health reasons, but his resignation came in the shadow of his trial in Manhattan, stemming from a lawsuit in which New York’s attorney general, Letitia James, accused LaPierre and other N.R.A. insiders of years of runaway corruption and misspending. The resignation will change the shape of the trial, since James was seeking to oust LaPierre from his position. ~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnewhYP0TxaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wMS8wNS91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9iaWRlbi1jb25kZW1ucy10cnVtcC1pbi1zZWFyaW5nLXNwZWVjaC5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU3JmVtYz1lZGl0X25lXzIwMjQwMTA1Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTExMTgyOCZubD10aGUtZXZlbmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTU0Mzk1JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpllFiDmGXoqDDpUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~ President Biden compared Donald Trump to foreign autocrats who rule by fiat and lies. Pete Marovich for The New York Times Biden took aim at Trump in a searing campaign speech In his first major campaign event of his re-election bid, President Biden used dire language in a speech today to [repeatedly condemn Donald Trump](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnewhYP0TxaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wMS8wNS91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9iaWRlbi1jb25kZW1ucy10cnVtcC1pbi1zZWFyaW5nLXNwZWVjaC5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU3JmVtYz1lZGl0X25lXzIwMjQwMTA1Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTExMTgyOCZubD10aGUtZXZlbmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTU0Mzk1JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpllFiDmGXoqDDpUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~), his likely opponent. He warned that the former president would seek to undo democracy if he returns to power. Biden, who is struggling with low approval ratings, framed the 2024 election as a choice between a candidate devoted to upholding American ideals and a chaos agent willing to discard them for his personal benefit. “Democracy is on the ballot,” he said. The 31-minute speech was by far his most forceful denunciation of Trump since it became evident the two men were likely to face off again in 2024. ~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnewhYP4QvAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tL2xpdmUvMjAyNC8wMS8wNS93b3JsZC9pc3JhZWwtaGFtYXMtd2FyLWdhemEtbmV3cy9pc3JhZWxzLWRlZmVuc2UtbWluaXN0ZXItZmxvYXRzLWEtcGxhbi1mb3ItdGhlLWRheS1hZnRlci10aGUtd2FyP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU3JmVtYz1lZGl0X25lXzIwMjQwMTA1Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTExMTgyOCZubD10aGUtZXZlbmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTU0Mzk1JnNtaWQ9dXJsLXNoYXJlJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpllFiDmGXoqDDpUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~ Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, right, with Defense Minister Yoav Gallant at a news conference in Tel Aviv in October. Pool photo by Abir Sultan Israel is split over its postwar plans Defense Minister Yoav Gallant yesterday [proposed a postwar plan](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnewhYP4QvAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tL2xpdmUvMjAyNC8wMS8wNS93b3JsZC9pc3JhZWwtaGFtYXMtd2FyLWdhemEtbmV3cy9pc3JhZWxzLWRlZmVuc2UtbWluaXN0ZXItZmxvYXRzLWEtcGxhbi1mb3ItdGhlLWRheS1hZnRlci10aGUtd2FyP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU3JmVtYz1lZGl0X25lXzIwMjQwMTA1Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTExMTgyOCZubD10aGUtZXZlbmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTU0Mzk1JnNtaWQ9dXJsLXNoYXJlJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpllFiDmGXoqDDpUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~) for Gaza predicated on the military defeat of Hamas.
