The corporate media have been fixated on the opioid epidemic over the past few years, and rightfully so. The media have gotten millions to tune in, while collecting advertising dollars for their efforts. Money makes strange bedfellows and consultants, plaintiffs’ lawyers, and state attorneys general like Nevada’s Aaron Ford have attempted to get their hands on over $30 billion in opioid settlements from big pharma. Ford determined the $240 plus million Nevada was expected to receive was not enough. Now that the false claims against opioid manufacturers have been proved hollow and Andrew Kolodny’s opioid hoax is materializing, Ford get nothing.
Shock Exchange alerted Ford about the $240 million opioid bag he fumbled and he decided to clap back at me on Twitter. I then invited Ford to Trump And The GE so he could air out his differences face-to-face instead of hiding behind a computer. At the 85 minute mark of the following video, the Shock Exchange admonishes Ford, “Not to sneak diss me on Twitter”:
Shock Exchange: As far as Aaron Ford from Nevada, don’t sneak diss me on Twitter. If you want to engage me you’re welcome to come onto the show. We can talk about opioids. We can talk about your legal strategy for the opioid litigation, if or when you’re going to drop these fake lawsuits because you’ve been warned four times already. You’ve been told by Judge Polster. You’ve been told by a judge in North Dakota, a judge Connecticut, and now a judge in California … These fake lawsuits have a cost and they are costing shareholders dearly, so I’m curious when you’re going to stop these fake lawsuits. You’ve been told four times already.
Tonight Trump And The GE Parses Kolodny’s Opioid Hoax at 7PM. This would be a great chance for Ford to engage the public, explain why Nevada opted out of the global opioid settlement and whether or not Nevada’s fake lawsuit is underpinned by Andrew Kolodny’s expert testimony. Kolodny has as acted an expert witness to counties and states pursuant to opioid litigation. No wonder all the states, including Ford, appear to repeat Kolodny’s rhetoric on that doctors and prescription opioids caused the opioid crisis. This would be a great chance for Ford to help us parse through the hoax.
