US pharmacy chain Walgreens has agreed to pay up to $350 million in a settlement with federal authorities over allegedly invalid prescriptions it filled, and sought payment for under health care programs.

Walgreens was said to have “illegally filled millions of invalid prescriptions for opioids and other controlled substances,” the Justice Department said in a statement Monday.

The chain later “sought payment for many of those invalid prescriptions by Medicare and other federal health care programs.”

The settlement amount was $300 million and is based on the company’s ability to foot the bill — but Walgreens will owe an added $50 million if the firm is sold, merged or transferred before 2032.

The prescriptions in question were filled between approximately August 2012 through March 2023, the department said.

They included “prescriptions for excessive quantities of opioids, opioid prescriptions filled significantly early,” alongside that for an “especially dangerous and abused combination of three drugs known as a ‘trinity.'”

Walgreens pharmacists were said to have filled the prescriptions despite clear signs that there was a high chance they were invalid due to lacking legitimate medical purposes and other issues.

Attorney General Pamela Bondi said the Department of Justice is “committed to ending the opioid crisis and holding bad actors accountable.”

Walgreens has also entered into agreements with authorities to address its future obligations in dispensing controlled substances, with further compliance measures.

So why did
The Ottoman empire had slaves, and had currency, this reads from someone who knows? Shit about the ottoman empire other than they were Muslim and just bases his jerk off fantasy off of that.
So why didn't the enlightened muslim's do it then? Thats something I like to ask people who complain about colonialism. If not Europeans, who, and then, why didn't they?
 
you hear that thunder
there should really be an audit system or something where if a college keeps producing worthless degrees that don't help a majority of the people who get them, the government stops approving financial aid or grants to that school.

there is no reason to continue supporting this garbage university system that's taking advantage of dumb 17-18 year olds. it's a terrible situation for everybody involved except the universities (that are also getting our tax money, BTW)
 
How is Talenti a good brand when it's loaded with gum syrup? The only ice cream brand that is actual fucking ice cream you can make at home now is Haagen Dasz. All the others use 3-5 different gum syrups to stabilize their ice cream slop.
It's impossible to sell ice cream in a grocery store without stabilizers. When unstabilized ice cream melts in transit and is later refrozen, it forms ice crystals that destroy its texture.

Häagen-Dazs uses egg yolks as its stabilizer, which makes it technically frozen custard, not ice cream.
 
Did anyone have an Easter dinner that was free of political talk? My was for the most part, but I did have to listen to my parents and their retiree friends complain how expensive things are getting because of tariffs. They also rhetorically asked who is going to do all the jobs that are coming back to America because "all Gen Zers do is sit around playing Minecraft."
Mine wasn't, but my parents are slightly to the right of typical Boomercons. I told them about that story of that Indian getting a denied a visa to vacation in Florida, they laughed at the thought of a Jeet with a girlfriend in Florida. I'm trying to steer them away from Vivek, but I don't know if I'll have any luck. Pray that God smites that motherfucker for me Kiwis, Ohio needs your energy.

And for all the bitching American's get for not getting other cultures' foods correct, the Mexicans can't cook an edible hamburger or french fries to save their lives.
The Belgians can get Fries right, but I'm convinced the only non-Americans that can get burgers right are the Japanese, and even then not always. Depends on what their autism focuses on. Euros think breaded chicken on a bun is a burger and then lecture us about a food that was invented by Ohioans and popularized in Hamburg, New York. You're welcome, by the way.

Is this China's final warning?
The funny thing is that Vietnam at least has wanted to work with the US on security matters for a long time, it probably doesn't take much convincing to get them on Team USA. The Jungle Asians hate the Chinese, it's been a thousand years of Ching Chongs slamming into the jungle and getting their asses beat.

I'm gonna shill our local brands of Graeter's and Aglamesis Bros. Pricy, but they will ship, both are pretty fantastic, especially Aglamesis's Egg Nog when it's in season. Their chocolate is pretty good too. I'm not gonna make any promises, but ending dates with Graeter's has always ended well for me. Just something to consider.

What's the problem with gum syrup? I looked it up and it's simple syrup with Acacia tree sap added to give a "silky" texture. Doesn't seem that bad? Genuine question.

Thanks for calling out Haagen. Maybe I'll give them another shot when the weather gets hot again.

Ice cream is really easy to make at home. Tastes better, too. Try that instead. You don't even need one of those fancy machines.
 
What in the hell is going on?
What dumbass invites violent gang members into their home?
Note the point that the gangbanger met the wife first.

Thus, there's two options.

Option one, cartel ties.

Option two, cuckold. Remember that the cuckoldry fetish is supposed to be "high IQ" somehow, if you recall the old copes. One I remember was some dentist or doctor or whatever claiming it was an intellectual pain or something to see his wife get railed.

Didn't the Ottomans invent köçeks? You know, when Muslims basically forced the children of natives into transsexual gay prostitution and made the natives pretend that it was oh such a great honor as a humiliation ritual?

If the Ottoman Empire had found America first, they'd ALL be dead, their children dressed up like whores dancing for them until they were bred out of existence -- the ones they didn't castrate, that is.

Yes, "trans kids" are modern day köçeks, and it's absolutely a humiliation ritual being pressed upon America by an invading cultural force.
 
Honestly, how was Roe vs Wade overturned again? Feels like it should've been impossible seeing the current state of the judiciary.
I think the original decision was justified by the interstate commerce clause or some bullshit. It was overturned based on a 10th amendment argument. The founders didn't specify abortion laws in the constitution and the DNC refused to codify it while in power so it got kicked back to the states.
