Rut roh......There's a press conference going on now (though looks like I missed some of it) - FBI and DOJ announced indictments against former #NFL players for defrauding an NFL health care program.

I found an article about it here:

A total of 10 former NFL players were charged in a $3.9 Million scheme to submit false claims to an NFL healthcare program.

Ahhh, more DME fraud. They claimed reimbursements for expensive DME that was never purchased.

What if I told you that #BigTech and #SocialMedia platforms are manipulating you, steering you toward #Health information that they think is right, rather than letting you evaluate content for yourself?

Commentary by @MaryamHenein (Thread 👇) theepochtimes.com/google-censors…
Accredited professionals, meanwhile, who stand for #Health freedom and who criticize Big Anything, are losing posting privileges, getting banned, being buried, finding themselves deranked, and getting digitally assassinated.
Content is literally disappearing from the Internet along with our #Health choices.

It sounds conspiratorial because it is. Independent #Journalists and health experts are blowing the whistle. But it’s become a silent one.
