Drugs: Paxil, Wellbutrin, Avandia
GlaxoSmithKline holds the dubious distinction of being forced to pay the largest health care fraud settlement in U.S. history. The criminal fine was $956,814,400 with a forfeiture of $43,185,600. $2 billion was paid to resolve civil liabilities under the False Claims Act.
The penalties are related to deceptive marketing, including off-label promotion and kickbacks, and failure to report safety data.
GSK agreed to pay based on:
- Promoting Paxil, Wellbutrin, Advair, Lamictal, and Zofran for off-label and non-covered uses, in addition to paying kickbacks to physicians for prescribing those drugs.
- Giving kickbacks to physicians for prescribing Imitrex, Lotronex, Flovent, and Valtrex.
- Making false and misleading statements about Avandia’s safety.
- False reporting to the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program.
Drugs: Bextra, Geodon, Zyvox, Lyrica
The criminal fine was $1.3 billion, and the additional $1 billion was for civil allegations under the False Claims Act. Pfizer falsely promoted Bextra, antipsychotic drug Geodon, antibiotic Zyvox, and antiepileptic Lyrica. The company was also accused of paying kickbacks related to these drugs and submitting false claims to government health care programs based on uses that weren’t medically accepted.
Bextra was pulled from the market in 2005 after it was deemed unsafe.
Drugs: Risperdal, Invega, Natrecor
Criminal fines and forfeiture totaled $485 million, and civil settlements amounted to $1.72 billion.
In the early 2000s, Risperdal was approved to treat schizophrenia. However, the company’s sales representatives were promoting the drug to physicians as a treatment for elderly dementia patients for anxiety, agitation, depression, hostility, and confusion. There were also allegations that Risperdal was marketed for other unapproved uses, such as prescription to children and individuals with mental disabilities.
Invega and Natrecor were also included in these lawsuits as having been illegally marketed for off-label and unapproved uses.

Chatter amongst those in control has begun.
They know we know which means the public will know.
Release prior to cover up.
Public informed and collapse.
Which option?

Trump cant keep America waiting any longer – there WILL be no America if he doesn’t act now
After we get all the friendlies out of Afghanistan, why not just drop a bomb on them and destroy all the millions of dollars of equipment we left there. This country is in serious trouble. We have no one who has the balls to do anything about what the government is doing. Biden needs to resign or be impeached as well as all the Generals and any other intelligence people who may have contributed to this cluster F—-. We had better do something and soon or we won’t have a country to defend or worth living in. Thank you for reading my rant.

But won’t it also come back and bite everyone else, Americans just the same – while they are being exposed, we are being hurt and hit in the pocketbook – how can you fix that??
If it is possible, could you email me the link to the class action lawsuit with the frontline doctors. I may need to join it – if I can or do I have to be in CA in order to join??
Yes – but we know the DS will NEVER, NEVER, EVER STOP Pushing – Someone HAS TO – Someone HAS TO BE THE ADULT and END THIS THING !!!! The Swamp will just find other things to use as ammo (so to speak). They are DEVIOUS – THERE IS NO STOPPING THEM UNLESS SOMEONE LITERALLY AND PHYSICALLY STOPS THEM – Otherwise THIS NEVER ENDS!!!
Dave think biden regime letting afg drop with all the assets, is to allow them to come to the US and masquerade as US troops when the SHTF. We then won’t know who to trust and they can fight our patriot soldiers. And such advanced gear. The Afghans were never intended to fight, it was the CIA arming themselves to use here and elsewhere all paid by the taxpayers. The departure insurance policy from afg.
Hi Dave i was reading your Telegram comment section yesterday,something i don’t normally do,i have to say i was surprised by all the negative remarks some must be trolls or bots that are trying to sow doubt,i just want to say keep up the good work, it seems many can’t understand what is playing out and why it’s taking so long for the hammer to drop and calling you out on it , but they don’t seem to know how to see the obvious changes that occur over time because they aren’t as dramatic and highly visible as they would expect them to be.Patience is a virtue many in our modern society don’t seem be blessed with and expect instant noodle satisfaction,don’t get distracted keep going change is inevitable and constant whether people understand the concept of time and tide or not.
look up graphene oxide research in Spain in these shots
I have a question, I heard Gates and Soros bought the pcr test, and you talk about in December a new test is going to be used. If Gates and Soros own test what is gonna be different? They lied with this test what’s to say they won’t lie with the new test? Trying to make sense of this mess!!!!!
I have been listening to the X22 report since last November pinning my hope on President Trump and the Patriots who have EVERYTHING since November 3-4. We now have political prisoners in Washington DC from the so-called Jan.6 insurrection denied all legal rights, mandates for an experimental vaccine that is killing thousands and leaving more with permanent injuries and now the possibility of God knows how many Americans will be left to die at the hands of the Taliban. I think there are more than enough people awake. If you have EVERYTHING what the hell are you waiting for?! How many people have to die on our side to get more awake?!! Maybe you have nothing.
The vaccine was NOT approved. Read the letter they submitted. It states that they are extending the Emergency Use Authorization. No where in the letter is there any statement about approval.
Thank you Dave great job Sir
