House Republicans unveiled plans for at least $880 billion in Medicaid cuts late Sunday as the cost-saving centerpiece to fund President Donald Trump&#8216;s $4.5 trillion tax break extension, igniting the largest healthcare battle since the 2017 Obamacare repeal attempt.
What Happened: The legislation, spanning hundreds of pages, would implement new work requirements and eligibility restrictions that Republicans frame as eliminating &#8220;waste, fraud and abuse&#8221; in safety net programs, <a href="https://apnews.com/article/medicaid-cuts-trump-tax-cuts-bill-1e2b12a91a3d12ceb0420ce7053de58e">reported</a> to the Associated Press. 
A Congressional Budget Office (CBO) preliminary analysis estimates 8.6 million Americans could lose healthcare coverage over the next decade.
&#8220;Savings like these allow us to use this bill to renew the Trump tax cuts and keep Republicans&#8217; promise to hardworking middle-class families,&#8221; said Rep. Brett Guthrie (R-KY), chairman of the Energy and Commerce Committee which oversees healthcare spending.
Democrats immediately denounced the proposal. &#8220;In no uncertain terms, millions of Americans will lose their health care coverage,&#8221; said Rep. Frank Pallone (D-NJ), the committee&#8217;s ranking Democrat. &#8220;Hospitals will close, seniors will not be able to access the care they need, and premiums will rise for millions of people if this bill passes.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Meanwhile, Democrats have proposed an alternative approach, targeting Medicare Advantage &#8220;upcoding&#8221; practices. Over 40 Democratic lawmakers recently wrote to Republican leadership citing reports that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/05/45313228/democrats-urge-gop-to-target-medicare-advantage-upcoding-instead-of-medicaid-cuts-calling-budget-plan-a-man-made-disaster">Medicare overpaid private insurers by $50 billion in 2024</a> for unverified diagnoses, representing $83 billion in excess payments compared to traditional Medicare.
State budgets are also at risk, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44304047/mark-cuban-warns-nebraska-will-get-crushed-by-tariffs-and-medicaid-cuts-faces-a-200m-shortfall-this-year">Nebraska already facing a $200 million shortfall</a> even before potential Medicaid funding reductions, according to reports cited by entrepreneur Mark Cuban. Combined with recent tariff increases affecting agricultural exports, states heavily dependent on both federal healthcare funding and international trade could face compounded fiscal challenges.

Wellgistics Health, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WGRX#NASDAQ">WGRX</a>, "Wellgistics Health")), a healthcare infrastructure and pharmaceutical distribution company leveraging proprietary technology, today announced financial results for its first fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025.
Revenue for the Q1 2025 quarter increased to $10.86 million from zero during the comparable period last year on a GAAP basis. Had the Company acquired Wood Sage and Wellgistics LLC as of January 1, 2024, the $10.86 revenue figure of Q1 2025 would be compared to $7.97 million on a pro forma basis for the same period in 2024, representing approximately a 36% year-over-year increase on a non-GAAP basis.
Wellgistics Health expects continued momentum in Q2, supported by expanded clinical fulfillment capacity, new manufacturer integrations, and scaled deployment of its pharmacy hub platform.

Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) stocks are trading higher on Monday following a major de-escalation in the ongoing U.S.-China trade war.
What Happened: The company's stock gained over 3.21% in Pre-market trading on Monday morning after U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced both sides will reduce tariffs by over 115% for 90 days following negotiations.
U.S. goods will be subjected to a 10% tariff in China, while Chinese imports into the U.S. will face a 30% tariff. Interestingly, China's CCP had prohibited its airlines from importing Boeing planes and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44888512/boeing-jet-returns-to-us-amid-escalating-tariff-tensions-with-china">had sent back</a> the planes following escalating tensions.
Elsewhere, U.S. President Donald Trump also accepted a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45340930/trumps-400-million-boeing-jet-gift-from-qatar-sparks-outcry-from-larry-summers-peter-schiff-banana-republic-level-corruption">$400 million Boeing 747-8 Jumbo Jet</a> from the Qatari royal family, which sparked outrage among experts.
Price Action: Boeing shares were up 3.21% at $201.10 at the time of publication on Wednesday, according to<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com"> Benzinga Pro</a> data.

Mark Zuckerberg may be renowned for creating Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) owned Facebook and shaping the internet as we know it today, but at home, he is like any father trying to ground his daughters in values, family, and reflection. In a podcast, he talked about a bedtime ritual he practices with his daughters, Max and August, which he calls "The Good Night Things."
What Happened: "Every night when I put my daughters to bed, we go through this thing and, like, they call it ‘the good night things,'" Zuckerberg explained <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf1wzhRnkrc">on</a> the Lex Fridman podcast.
The ritual includes a conversation about four core values that Zuckerberg wants to instill in his children: health, relationships, excitement for the future, and kindness. "What do I want them to remember and just have really ingrained in them as they grow up?" he reflected.
The nightly list starts with health: "Making sure that you take care of yourself and keep yourself in good shape." The second is loving friends and family, which Zuckerberg says is "perhaps one of the most important things." The third something that they are excited about for the future. "I think the way we navigate [life] is that we have things that we&#8217;re looking forward to," he said.
And finally, each night ends with the question: "What did you do today to help someone?" "It can be as simple as, ‘I helped set the table for lunch,'" he said. "But that's sort of like&#8230; if you were to boil down my overall life philosophy into what I try to impart to my kids, those are the things that I think are really important."

Why It Matters: Zuckerberg has presented himself as a ‘family man' in various media appearances over the years. Last year, he shared via Instagram that he was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/45124694/mark-zuckerberg-says-his-wife-wanted-a-minivan-so-he-designed-a-porsche-hes-pretty-sure-should-exist-and-made-it-a-his-and-hers-set">designing a custom Porsche</a> as a special gift for his wife, Priscilla Chan. 
Describing it as a "new side quest," he revealed that the entire redesign was rooted in her preferences. Earlier in the same year, he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/05/45241490/thats-weird-mark-zuckerberg-gifted-his-wife-a-7-foot-tall-turquoise-statue-of-herself-but-says-i-dont-think-she-was-that-happy-with-it">commissioned a marble statue of Chan</a>, posting a photo on Instagram with the caption: &#8220;Bringing back the Roman tradition of making sculptures of your wife.&#8221;
Despite these public expressions of family values and teaching his daughters about the importance of compassion for fellow human beings, Zuckerberg and Meta have faced repeated scrutiny for questionable business practices, such as measures undertaken to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/03/44363736/zuckerbergs-global-push-meta-faces-scrutiny-over-privacy-free-speech-regulatory-tactics">infiltrate the Chinese market and employing lobbying tactics</a> in India; allegedly silencing ex-employees speaking out about issues like the company&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44447618/facebook-whistleblower-says-mark-zuckerberg-led-metas-gag-order-is-silencing-her-from-speaking-to-congress-about-china-ties-teen-harm-and-harassment-claims">connections to China, harming teen users, and workplace misconduct</a> and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43723246/meta-faces-backlash-as-laid-off-workers-say-they-were-unfairly-targeted-despite-strong-performance-records">unfairly laying off workers</a> despite strong track records.

Mark Cuban, the billionaire entrepreneur, challenged Trump-supporter and political activist Charlie Kirk&#8216;s stance on high drug prices, asserting that Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) are the main culprits, not Big Pharma.
What Happened:&nbsp;Cuban criticized Kirk&#8217;s&nbsp;focus on Big Pharma as&nbsp;the primary driver of high drug prices. Instead, Cuban pointed to PBMs as the major offenders&nbsp;due to their opaque pricing&nbsp;practices and market dominance. Cuban highlighted the lack of transparency in PBMs&#8217; contracts, which often prohibit disclosing pricing details. He challenged&nbsp;Kirk to obtain a net&nbsp;price list from his company&#8217;s PBM. 
Meanwhile, Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, has regularly raised questions on the practices of Big Pharma through his posts and podcasts.

<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Charlie , you aren&#39;t close. Drug prices are too damn high. But the big culprit isn&#39;t the brand manufacturers, it&#39;s the big middlemen. Namely PBMs. They work so hard to distort pricing the first lines in their contracts with everyone is &quot;you can&#39;t disclose any of this &quot; How bad… <a href="https://t.co/oMnlvlOPtl">https://t.co/oMnlvlOPtl</a>
&mdash; Mark Cuban (@mcuban) <a href="https://twitter.com/mcuban/status/1921755430708969767?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 12, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Cuban&#8217;s post aligns&nbsp;with a 2022 FTC investigation&nbsp;into PBMs&#8217;&nbsp;role in rising drug costs&nbsp;through practices like spread pricing. Moreover, according to a 2023 Bipartisan&nbsp;Policy Center, six PBMs control&nbsp;95% of the private market. 
He supports Trump's Executive Order to lower drug prices by 30-80%, suggesting that targeting PBMs, such as separating formularies and mandating claim disclosures, could make brand medications cheaper than in many countries, building on his own efforts with Cost Plus Drugs to cut out middlemen and reduce costs.
In one of his initial responses, Mark Cuban expressed support for the move, stating it could &#8220;force transparency,&#8221; even if the President can&#8217;t mandate price reductions.
SEE ALSO:&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.com/news/25/05/45338281/trump-has-a-proven-track-record-of-being-an-absolute-failure-says-gov-tim-walz-we-dont-need-to-run-governmen" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Trump Has A &#8216;Proven Track Record Of Being An Absolute Failure,&#8217; Says Gov. Tim Walz—&#8217;We Don&#8217;t Need To Run Government Like A Business&#8217;</a>
Why It Matters: Cuban&#8217;s comments come in the wake of President Donald Trump&#8216;s announcement of a sweeping executive order aimed at slashing prescription drug prices. The order, which Trump referred to as the &#8220;most consequential executive order&#8221; in U.S. history, is set to implement a &#8220;Most Favored Nations&#8221; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/05/45341590/trumps-drug-pricing-executive-order-could-rattle-pharma-stocksprice-cuts-up-to-80">policy requiring</a> pharmaceutical companies to charge U.S. consumers no more than the lowest price they offer for the same drug in any other country.
Cuban, despite being a Trump critic, has <a href="https://benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44866755/mark-cuban-says-this-trump-healthcare-order-could-save-hundreds-of-billions">expressed support</a> for Trump&#8217;s healthcare order, emphasizing its potential to reform the role of PBMs in the U.S. healthcare system and save billions. He believes&nbsp;that targeting PBMs—such as separating&nbsp;formularies and mandating claim disclosures—could&nbsp;make brand medications cheaper than&nbsp;in many countries.
