The 'Criminal Sentencing' of Purdue Pharma Was a Cruel Fiction.. almost none of it was true.
the criminal conspiracy that intentionally got millions addicted, and raked in billions of dollars —that part was real. So was the suffering Americans testified to https://t.co/Nlrh0hF4og
Mexican cartels rely on Chinese money laundering networks to flood America with fentanyl.
Today’s House Financial Services subcommittee hearing found these networks have become the dominant professional launderers for Mexican cartels like Sinaloa and Jalisco New Generation.
Over $300 BILLION in suspicious activity tied to suspected Chinese networks between 2020-2024, according to the Treasury.
The Chinese Communist Party has the authoritarian power to shut these networks down, but doesn't.
Bipartisan lawmakers are demanding real coordination between banks, regulators, and law enforcement to dismantle them.
California is unraveling. Let’s be clear. This is NOT how California does elections. I lived there and they use to give the results that night.
It wasn’t until mail in ballots became a thing in 2020, that everything got screwed up!
Ballot harvesting was the precursor and jungle primaries which shouldn’t be illegal, but then Covid hit and we got mail in’s, a newer and faster way to fraud. Covid is over… so why do they still use mail ins? Two words: To cheat!
Amazing crime stats
🔹2/3 of crime committed by 10% of criminals
🔹Expand out to 80% of crime, and it's 20% of criminals.
Reminds me in a very different area—healthcare—of my discovery when I wrote PHARMA.
🔹5% of patients account for about half of U.S. healthcare spending
On this day — June 8, 1949 — George Orwell published 1984.
Seventy-seven years later, what was meant as a terrifying warning now reads less like dystopian fiction and all too frequently like a chilling snapshot of modern life. Orwell saw it coming.
Addiction has touched nearly every American family. Together, we can help more Americans find recovery and reclaim their lives.

See you at the National Opioid Settlement Conference in Denver! I'll be speaking with other colleagues about the importance of getting funding to grassroots, community based organizations.
So far only 3.5% of NYS funds have gone to grassroots orgs. @NYSOASAS needs to work on it
Jennifer McMullen had two brothers fighting during World War II and so the Ohio native-turned-Phoenix transplant now 101, was happy when she landed a job as a riveter at a California Lockheed factory.

Another example of black on white violent crime epidemic in Dem run cities the Media is hiding.
Must stop.
Chemical attack on America’s future generation!!!! Devastation for families all over the country! We need a “whole of america approach” Law enforcement has been working hard for years seizing massive quantities of deadly drugs and disrupting the networks, but we need all hands on deck to deal with this historic crisis.

Fmr CIA officer here.
Let me share how elections get stolen — and the role of intel agencies.
We all know that the CIA and NSA create and execute clandestine operations that are designed to go undetected. That ranges from recruiting human spies, tapping phone systems, and altering devices of all kinds.
Yes, that necessarily includes voting machines.
The CIA and NSA have teams to execute all of these operations and missions at the direction of a President, even those ops that are deemed impossible… like machines locked in rooms that are inside secure facilities, unhooked from the internet or whatever device that could tether them to the outside world.
Those tough intel operations require extensive planning, exquisite trade craft, supporting operations (HUMINT, SIGINT, MASINT), and a degree of luck.
For many years, everything that I’m saying was understood by both Democrats and Republicans on Capitol Hill.
Historic footage from Congressional hearings show both Ds and Rs saying that they were alarmed about voting systems with so-called “unhackable machines.” They knew then — correctly — that such a suggestion or claim was ridiculous. They were briefed by NSA and CIA teams on how they “hack the unhackable” every month without leaving a trace.
This is why Taiwan and others are resolute on conducting elections the old fashioned way: same day voting only, in person, IDs, paper ballots, a counting process that is open to the public to watch and monitor, and results announced that same night.
If Taiwan can do it with ~24M people, any US state can do it. Refusal to do so is an intentional choice to open your electoral systems to vulnerabilities.
That's what we’re now seeing across the United States, and primarily in Democrat-dominated locales. Including Los Angeles. Those politicians choose broken systems.
California’s ~30 day process to tally votes is obviously and intentionally vulnerable that a reasonable person understands that it allows for manipulation and assured electoral outcome by a dominant power (Democrats, in this case).
And like any good intel op, you do it such that there are no fingerprints left behind — whether that be with machines, mail-in ballots, harvested ballots, etc. If you own the ops environment, anything is possible.
Still, mistakes happen in any op. In the event of disclosure, you do what we often see Democrats and the media do: deny, smear, and make counter-accusations to preserve intentionally broken systems.
Folks, this is not about Spencer Pratt. This is about the future of what’s left of our Republic.
Evil, seditious forces have broken our electoral systems and gained great power using them. Mayor Bass is but one, using the machine that her Democrat Party has built to sustain her and Leftist power. It’s the modern, Golden State version of old Chicago, NJ, or Huey Long corruption.
They will deny it, obviously. Because admission means loss of power, money, and likely prison time. There’s no incentive for them to clean up what’s broken.
Bottom line: Mr. Pratt’s earnest desire to run a righteous race to fix his city faces long odds. He didn’t just run against Karen Bass. He ran against a corrupt machine.
But if nothing else, he has shown his fellow Angelinos and the nation that, once again, we have an existential problem in our electoral system with intentional vulnerabilities and electoral fraud that naturally flows from the brokenness.
Now it’s up to the rest of us to fix it.
There are solutions, none easy or polite. But we must do so — and by whatever means necessary — or the Republic falls to Communists and Cuba-trained agitators like Karen Bass.
Those are the stakes. Time is short.
@DavidOvalle305@KeithNHumphreys You have a interesting neighbor @geraldposner and a new movement battling fentanyl based in Florida with Jackie Siegel not to forget the Sacklers who will be visiting the justice system yet again in July in FLA

Just finished the @InstituteCicero conference on homelessness. It was complete with protests and everything. Here's the truth. Housing First doesn't work for people with addictions and must be changed. I told you I was going to help make that happen.
