I know many of you will recognize the Sandgaard name due to their non-profit group the Sandgaard foundation. Did you know their founder is the CEO of a Colorado pain device company? They formed a group to combat opioids, which also sets them up financially zynexmed.investorroom.com/2021-07-29-Zyn…
Here are some screenshots gathered from various sites that help highlight my concerns: zynex.com/company/
Prediction 8/24-Scheme: Calley Means, the Andrew Kolodny of wellness healthcare venture capital is the PR lead. Trump will appoint RFKjr to lead the White House Chronic Disease Commission. Dr.Casey Means, Dr Drew, Jillian Michaels, Ron Johnson, Peter McCullough👈🏻the panel. 🧵
⬆️ modeled after the White House Opioid Commission, led by Chris Christie (who sits on the board of a non-op!oid pharma co that was also invited), the committee will invite companies to be involved in the solutions/report, & they’ll make millions.
At the same time, mass tort firms will sue the deep pocket processed food industry, which will create more funds to go into state coffers & public health offices, while creating liability for companies that make processed foods.
Calley will win as whistleblower & as consultant.
What only a handful of ppl have caught on to, is that MDL litigation where govt is lead lead plaintiff, is being done to get around the lawful rule-making process, installing backdoor regs & causing bankruptcies, that limit free-market choice, thru settlement injunctions.
The big 3 opioid settlement injunctions have caused massive problems with pts not being able to get their essential medications at pharmacies, due to the settlement agreement saying companies must put strict thresholds on what pharmacies can order. It’s TYRANNICAL RATIONING.
This well-oiled litigation machine is churning out for-profit litigation at record rates, securing wealth transfers based on frivolous lawsuits. Why does that matter? B/c the plaintiffs bar IS LYING, so settlements will CAUSE harm b/c the problems weren’t there to begin with.
I’ve wondered why Natl Harm Redux coalition & DPA w/partnered with a film & outreach program that promotes re-installing the 2016 cdc gls (according to leader Jamie Boyle) & publicizing a stigmatizing film aimed at demonizing rx opioids, while advocating for safe injection sites.
I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact these two sit on the board of directors for Natl HR Coalition. Also, DPA NY has long supported Alexis Pleus from TruthPharm, who helped Nan with her Sackler litigation publicity stunts. These groups are harming ppl who use drugs.
I was told that DPA is normally an “ally” to the pain/disability community. I was also told they have ppl that have joined their group that have been harmed by Purdue. I wonder why there’s a distinction b/t street initiation bs rx initiation and why they have a double standard.

“How US DOJ & Trial Lawyers circumvented public consent to create a work-around ban on rx opioids thru mass tort litigation.”levinlaw.com/2021/07/21/win…
“A nationwide solution. If you impose serious restrictions in one community, but not the next, offenders simply move their operations. By getting all states & all communities on board, it created a truly nationwide solution to a public health crisis.”
-mass rx restrictions 🤔
“This reform package includes the creation of a groundbreaking clearinghouse through which the Big Three will be required to account not only for their own shipments, but also the shipments of the other distributors, in order to detect, stop, and report suspicious orders.”
So I figured out why Barry was so intent on obfuscating the pain pts’ complaints about his reporting: he’s a niche investigative journalist that covers big class-action litigation, seemingly erring on the side of plaintiffs, which includes billion $ firms. #LitigationNarrative
Also really interesting afa #BarryMeier and his relationship with the prosecutor in the 2007 Purdue case. https://t.co/SlfSdCjSXEstatnews.com/2018/06/06/oxy…
Roughly a year before Meier was tipped off about Oxycontin’s marketing issues, Barry wrote this strange little bit about Ron Motley Esq, who won big with the tobacco litigation, & went on to hire PROP member(s) as expert witnesses for opioid litigation. https://t.co/c7Z78XZXvNnytimes.com/1999/11/14/bus…
The real cause of the opioid related death explosion isn’t initial exposure to opioids. It’s separating ppl from their safer supply, be it from a MD or from a street source. Going after pharma/supply only made this worse b/c then the solution was to cut everyone off and stop RXs.
@US_Muckraker So IOW, when cops and public health depts (cause they’re partnered now in this endeavor) take out ppl supplying the drugs they deem “highly addictive”, they’re not just trying to ruin the lives of the “dealer” figure, they’re openly aiming to hurt the end recipient of the drug.
@US_Muckraker I find it shocking that so many supposed liberal ppl in medicine (that will be all about BLM, etc) are actually fostering a framework that was used for slavery as far as medical paternalism. The harm principle honors individuals own bodily autonomy, as long as others aren’t hurt.
