President Donald Trump revealed a top aide's personal health secret while talking to Cabinet members in front of TV cameras Thursday.
During a discussion about weight loss medications, President Donald Trump unexpectedly singled out White House Communications Director Steven Cheung, publicly calling him out as a user of "fat drugs" — likely meaning Ozempic.
As Trump announced plans to reduce the cost of popular weight loss medications, he began an impromptu survey of his cabinet members and staff, asking about their potential usage of such drugs.
The president first turned to Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, asking, "You taking any of this stuff Howard?"
Lutnick responded tersely, "Not yet."
Trump then commented on Dr. Mehmet Oz, noting, "Mehmet Oz, he doesn't take it."
Suddenly focusing on his communications director, Trump called out, "Where's Steve? Head of public relations for the White House. He's taking it."
Cheung was not in the room.
