Doug Burgum and Pete Hegseth spoke next, both praising Trump's Gaza peace efforts.
VP Vance slammed the media for preemptively criticizing Trump's approach to resolve the conflict and Witkoff's role. He then attacked Democrats over the shutdown and called for five more senators to vote for reopening.
Wright mentioned the shutdown's impact on the Energy Department.
RFK Jr said that Trump deserves as much credit on drug prices as he has gotten for Gaza. He said under the MFN policies, 90% of drugs will be sold at the lowest price in the world by the time Trump leaves office. He then spoke about Tylenol and how Cuba has the lowest use and lowest autism rate.
