Oxycontin maker Purdue Pharma pleads guilty to 3 crimes & $8 BILLION in penalties.
Plus they agreed to allow the #receipts to be used against the Sackler family & other employees of the firm!
To give you an idea of how these cases progress, first they bust the bank, then the banker, then the customers when they have no chance of escape because the bank gave up the #receipts!
Sounds like Purdue Pharma tried to pay $12B with no guilty plea but DOJ forced 3 guilty pleas for the firm. It means very little as the company can't go to prison, but it helps solidify the cases against the people involved.
Purdue Pharma used many of the classic tactics of corporate organized crime. Using PR firms to get fake news coverage in papers like the NYT's, bribing doctors to publish & spread false information, & of course donations to politicians to protect them.
Another person to watch out of this is Eric Holder's Deputy Attorney General James M. Cole from 2010-2015.
He pushed DEA to not focus enforcement efforts on opioid manufacturers. He is now Huawei's lawyer & enabled Brennan's witch hunt against reporters.
Are most of the MAGA sources of news on Twitter really focused on draining the swamp?
Or are they ignoring Swamp Creatures with Republican connections?
Help me find out if our news sources are covering the Elliot Broidy story or covering it up!

The earlier indictments were for union head John Dougherty & Philly politicians.
Earlier allegations included Dougherty using union funds to pay for remodeling, contracting & snow removal services at his brother's house. His brother who received this kickbacks is a Justice on the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania.
Problem for Steele is that Danchenko was not afraid of being contacted by the US Government. In fact he had already reached out to the FBI & been interviewed with his lawyer without Steele knowing about it!

Some redaction that prevent an easy identification of another person that might be exposed too. Not sure if that is a source or a conduit for information... Contacts with Sen. McCain's office....
Starting to read the FBI's 94-page Spreadsheet on corroboration, or lack there of, for the Steele Dossier.
Getting the idea that this will expose all the people involved in Hillary's plot to frame Trump. It's an inventory of the Trump Russia fake news! justthenews.com/sites/default/…
Of course most of the information came from Brookings Institutution and Orbis employee, & suspected Russian Spy Ivan Danchenko who told the FBI made up most of the stuff attributed to him.
Steele had a Russian friend & executive at Target Labs in the US who put Danchenko on their payroll so that he could pay Target Labs a fee & they would pay Danchenko who didn't work for them to conceal he worked for Steele.
Sullivan’s Brady Order saves the best for last!
Day after Flynn interview DOJ lawyer notes say “NO REASONABLE PROSECUTOR” would bring the case against Flynn! #ButNothingsHappening
In looking a little closer it does seem that this lawyer from DOJ OLC is quoting FBI Chief Counsel Jim Baker. Which makes this seem like this is the meeting the coup blew up in their faces! And you have to see Comey & Baker's roles in this now.
I have long said that Comey was repeating what the coup plotters told him with "No reasonable prosecutor"
That the people who rigged the Hillary email case celebrated when Comey quoted their talking point in his 'exoneration' press conference that revealed Hillary's crimes.
Broidy is a long-time Swamp Creature connected to Swampy Republicans & Democrats. He has connections to many Clintonistas & parts of this investigation was started by Mueller targeting George Nader & others.
