We're paying too much for drugs compared to other countries, and existing laws make it hard to lower costs. The middlemen in the drug industry are profiting significantly without adding value. We're going to eliminate these middlemen to reduce drug prices to unprecedented levels. This topic dominated our discussions with executives and others involved.

We're going down rabbit holes on this podcast. Bayer is a pharmaceutical company. Monsanto is a pesticide company. Bayer bought Monsanto. Bayer makes drugs for non Hodgkin's lymphoma. Monsanto makes a toxic herbicide called glyphosate that they spray on food. Glyphosate, wait for it, causes non Hodgkin's lymphoma. Now we've come full circle. Big pharma is in bed with big food, and both of them are in bed with our western health system. None of which is concerned with making cures, all of which is concerned with making customers. Welcome to the circus.

The speaker states they decided to break the system, referring to drug companies, which they describe as the most powerful lobby in the world with tremendous power over the Senate, the House, governors, and everybody. The speaker notes that drug companies spend billions of dollars. The speaker claims they don't care and have to do what's right.

Experts say the CDC's opioid crackdown has failed, with overdose deaths rising. Courts are questioning the arguments used to justify the crackdown. Millions of chronic pain patients who depend on prescription opioids have suffered since 2016 due to the war on legal pain meds. Lawsuits against drug companies, alleging they caused the opioid epidemic, are faltering. A California court dismissed a lawsuit, finding no support for the claim that 25% of opioid patients become addicted. The Oklahoma Supreme Court reached a similar conclusion, stating opioid benefits outweigh risks. The narrative that prescribed opioids cause deaths is false. The majority of overdose deaths are from illegal street drugs like fentanyl and heroin, not prescription medication. Less than 1% of legal pain patients become addicted, contrary to lawsuit claims. Millions have been cut off from medication, leading to a 470% increase in suicides among these patients. Patients are suing doctors and hospitals for denying medications. Anti-opioid crusaders who crafted the CDC's 2016 crackdown are also under scrutiny.

The back pain industry is a multi-billion dollar program, and wider acceptance of mind-body pain disorder could have negative economic repercussions. Opioids are a common treatment for chronic pain, but their use has been disastrous. Every eight minutes, someone in America dies from a drug overdose, and the majority involve opioids like oxycodone or hydrocodone, which are essentially heroin pills for common chronic pain conditions. Data shows that surgeries for the back, like vertebroplasty, are no better than sham surgery.

Pharmaceutical companies like Merck, Sanofi, Pfizer, and Glaxo have paid billions in penalties for dishonest practices, resulting in harm and deaths. The opioid crisis and Vioxx are examples of collusion between pharma and regulators, leading to thousands of deaths. Regulatory agencies have become puppets for the industry, depriving the public of informed consent.

I'm Matthew Galiotti, head of the Justice Department's Criminal Division. Today we announce the largest coordinated health care fraud takedown in the history of the Department of Justice. We are announcing charges against three twenty four defendants for their alleged participation in health care fraud schemes involving approximately $14,600,000,000 in false claims submitted to Medicare, Medicaid and other health care programs. In a takedown this large, I can't possibly describe all of the work that went into dismantling each scheme. But there are four key points that bear emphasizing. First, these health care fraud schemes mean for every hardworking American family. These criminals didn't just steal someone else's money. They stole from you. Every fraudulent claim, every fake billing, every kickback scheme represents money taken directly from the pockets of American taxpayers who fund these essential programs through their hard work and sacrifice. And when criminals defraud these programs, they're not just committing theft. They're driving up our national deficit and threatening the long term viability of health care for seniors, disabled Americans and our most vulnerable citizens. This enforcement action involves the seizure of cash as well as luxury vehicles and properties returning real money to American taxpayers and to our government health care programs. Second, we are seeing a disturbing trend of transnational criminal organizations engaging in increasingly sophisticated and complex criminal schemes that defraud the American health care system. As part of this takedown, we've identified and charged defendants operating from Russia, Eastern Europe, Pakistan and other foreign countries. As just one example, we dismantled a scheme involving a sophisticated operation run from Russia and Eastern Europe that strategically bought dozens of medical supply companies in The United States and submitted more than $10,000,000,000 in fraudulent health care claims to Medicare. To make matters worse, these perpetrators used the stolen identities of more than 1,000,000 Americans spanning all 50 states to perpetrate this scheme and submit these false claims. But I'm pleased to report that federal agents intercepted and arrested key members of that organization at US airports and The US Mexico border, cutting off their intended escape routes. The days of transnational criminal organizations using the American health care programs as their personal piggy bank are over. Third, this takedown resulted in criminal charges against 74 defendants, including medical professionals who fueled America's deadly opioid crisis for personal profit. These are not isolated instances of poor judgment. These are calculated schemes designed to exploit Americans struggling with addiction while enriching the very people who were duty bound to help them heal. We charged pill mill operators who prescribed unnecessary opioids. We dismantled networks of corrupt pharmacies that existed solely to distribute drugs to addicts and dealers, feeding the addiction crisis that has devastated so many American communities. Fourth, many of the defendants charged as part of this takedown specifically targeted our most vulnerable citizens, elderly Americans in nursing homes, individuals with disabilities, those battling illnesses, and more. For example, our prosecutors charged seven defendants, including five medical professionals, in connection with approximately $1,000,000,000 in fraudulent claims to Medicare and other health care benefit programs for performing medically unnecessary skin grass on dying patients as they were seeking to spend their final days with dignity and peace. That conduct is exactly as callous and disturbing as it sounds. Patients and their families trusted these providers with their lives. Instead of receiving care, they became victims of elaborate criminal schemes.

The transcript claims that the entire opioid epidemic in America was caused by the Sackler family, describing them as a Zionist Jewish family responsible for the deaths of half a million Americans and the severe addiction of three to six million Americans, who were ruined, separated from families, ended up on the streets, jailed, or otherwise harmed. It states that in the mid-nineties the Sackler family produced OxyContin, which was so strong and addictive that it could not get FDA approval because it was "actually considered stronger than street level heroin," and asserts they bribed the FDA to push it through. For twenty-four years, while receiving data indicating the pill’s addictiveness and lethality, the Sackler family allegedly pushed pharmacists to prescribe it to patients and disseminate it to everyday Americans to generate enormous profits, described as billions of dollars. The money earned from destroying society and causing addiction is said to have been used to place their names in museums, colleges, and hospitals, and to fund anti-Muslim groups and politicians, including Bush, Obama, and Zionist Jewish politicians like Chuck Schumer, to keep them in office. The transcript claims they used the profits from their pharmaceutical business to promote themselves and maintain power. Regarding the ending, it asserts that the profits are at least over $10,000,000,000, though the exact amount is unknown, and notes they received no jail time, while the victims’ addicts allegedly spent more time incarcerated. It mentions a $7,000,000,000 fine, which it says was insufficient given the profits. The narrative concludes by alleging they got away with this because they are a “bunch of Zios,” with the entire court system and media described as controlled by them, and asserts that they are all part of the same system that exploits and harms the public for profit, showing no concern for the people.

Big Pharma targeted Eastern Kentucky, offering doctors a remedy to kill pain quickly. An individual claimed to have been working underground since 1983 and could provide the solution. The remedy spread rapidly, with half the town consuming it without questioning its effects. Doctors allegedly profited from prescriptions and kickbacks.

The Sackler family played a significant role in the opioid crisis by aggressively marketing OxyContin, which led to millions of overdose deaths. They were aware of the drug's high addictive potential, even more so than heroin, as revealed in court documents. The family encouraged doctors to prescribe OxyContin, falsely claiming it was not addictive. Many workers in dangerous jobs sought pain relief, leading them to become dependent on the drug. Additionally, the Sacklers were major contributors to Israel, which has sparked discussions about their influence and actions.

The speaker questions the profits made by the company from government subsidies and opioids. They accuse the company of lying about the addictive nature of opioids and causing the opioid crisis. The speaker highlights the company's billion-dollar settlements and expresses outrage at their attempts to limit liability. They emphasize the importance of private rights of action and the need to hold big corporations accountable. The speaker mentions a significant jury verdict and the fear it instills in companies. They call for more Americans to have recourse in court and changes to the bankruptcy code to prevent companies from avoiding accountability.
