The chopping block the New York Times is now reporting that as part of a possible settlement to resolve thousands of federal and state lawsuits the Sackler Family would give up ownership of Purdue Pharma the company blamed for much of the opiate epidemic and paid 3000000000 of their own money but for that but the punishment for the socceroos wouldnt end there the times goes on report that in addition to that there are 3000000000. 00 cash payout the sacrilege would sell another drug company they own monday pharma and contribute an additional 1500000000. 00 from the proceeds this could essentially force the Sackler Family out of the opioid business to the tune of 4500000000. 00 just on their own expenses but are just bankruptcies and fines enough does that bring justice to the millions upon millions of lives destroyed by the opioid epidemic. Lets point out as we start watching the whole. You. Want to. Treat this like real that its like. As if the plot of. The day like you know that i got. With. This. Is exactly. What the watching the harks i am tire rubber and on top of the hour. You know tablets of cigarettes you back she are we have order through a long time and i would say probably the Sackler Family in the 1st Purdue Pharma is probably a close 2nd to lead the jeffrey upstream case for something that youve followed for a long time since you started this group like digging into what theyre accountability and what theyve done through the Opioid Crisis yeah theyve got a lot of you do it under have always some of the worst you know as a woman on the internet you sort of are used to a certain amount of the rats or foul things coming to you but it was actually a the idea that i suggested even 6 or 7 years ago 6 years ago that the pharmaceutical companies were paying doctors and they were the ones pushing mass and thats what was pushing the o. P. O. Craze us and i got a lot of a lot of heat for it and now here we are and everything. Also on this show we reported a couple of years ago about how the Sackler Family was going to look into after moving into the same thing Pain Management in china in africa and in india that company was of course monday farm out which is part of this big settlement so under this settlement Purdue Pharma gets restructured under chapter 11 bankruptcy that means that go produce. Who goes from being a private company hauled by the Sackler Family into a public Beneficiary Trust so whatever they make from this point forward goes into a trust which then. All the profits go to plaintiffs in the case which of course as we see more and more of these are municipalities small towns counties states and also native tribes Indigenous People of the country who sit them for things theyve done on tribal lands in addition. They are family or produce farm is has been working on the. Addiction treatment drugs which oddly enough have taken them for ever so long to figure out they have all these things to help fight the addiction the disease that they are using to profit off of sick people and so now here you have they are saying that in part of this settlement would be that they would have to fast track their develop they would be under right now theyd have to give them to the public for free at no charge and also that they would fast track review status by the f. D. A. In order to get those anti addiction drugs on the market as quickly as possible for. Ruled out to grovel to their son she would remain so if it were just going to blow the school ive never heard about before the blood come you know that basically are sorry your company is now going to be just giving money to the public for all of the sims you committed thats incredible well i think you know that they were going to try to do this thing where you know theres always this well well get these settlements but then theyll just go bankrupt and in this case i think there was the chance that well keep coming after you know and people will keep coming after you if you dont take responsibility for this and you talk about responsibility bear responsibility is coming to the to move almost 10. 00 to 12000000000. 00 i mean the value of profits from the new trust in the donations is estimated to be somewhere between 7 and 8000000000 this would actually put the total cost of the settlement when you include. The 3000000000 from the family would be personally have to put into this. Term the 12000000000. 00 altogether you know that kind of raises the question is that enough you know without them suffering amount of should they go to jail its got a lot of the same questions we got from wall street with wall street crash economy you know our forms of know are just you know bailing out the ones they got exactly so maybe they learned something and this is what should have happened when the banks failed the should have happened when Insurance Company has failed not the taxpayer paying for it in this way we still keep the drugs that help we can actually figure out ways to minimize that and theyre going to have to pay for the damage that they rot most awfully so purdue wants to achieve what its calling a global settlement and there is an agreement with all the parties and all of the lawsuits to end all of them one big massive pay day so it would be about 10. 00 states are at the negotiating table up in the air is whether the other 38. 00 or so states that have filed lawsuits will agree there is also a larger group of 34000 cities and counties that have not yet filed lawsuits that would like to be bound to the agreement that also there you know you talked about their closing monday farm i think what youre going to have is theyre closing because theres literally no way for them to even go forward they made a fortune killing people for you know. Just 2 short years ago in 2017 business tycoon Warren Buffett told shareholders at a Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting that i dont know that much about cyber but i do think thats the number one problem with mankind. I dont know that i can disagree with him of course at the time burst sure how the way specialty insurance had already successfully launched 2 insurance plans that covered both the costs associated with the cyber attack and any liability for it which was a Good Business decision as cybersecurity ventures reported. That there was a new Ransomware Attack on a business or public resource every 14 seconds in 21000 in addition they estimate that by 2021 they will happen every 11 seconds and fact the fear is so real that the city of baltimore announced this week that after a terrible attack on the city in may of this year they would transfer 6000000. 00 from the Parks Department to pay for the cost of the Ransomware Attack and that they were considering purchasing insurance of course this comes on the heels of a pro publica piece by Senior Reporter rene dudley which found that the f. B. I. And security researchers say paying ransoms contributes to the profitability and spread of cyber crime in some cases may ultimately be funding terrorist regimes so why do Insurance Companies pay the did data kidnappers time after time will cause its more profitable to pay the ransom than to pay to fix the problem out after. It is that many cyber experts say that are causing the ransom attempts to soar and attempts to multiply and says Insurance Companies across the world look to get a piece of the market expected to be worth over 23000000000 by 2025 want us to wonder if their profits are worth putting small towns and Public Services across the globe at more risk than ever before that is incredible Insurance Companies making money off of. Lives ransomware you know these towns in minutes apologies are being held hostage by those around somewhere you know and its supposed to be sort of new and it is new to an extent lloyds of london has famously you know i think they ensured j. Los legs the leaders is lagging behind i mean thats something so lloyds of london one of the oldest insurers in the world actually put the 1st Cyber Security insurance policy out on the market in the ninetys 99. 00 actually so right before its ok they were very worried about that so theyre actually they built the market and thats kind of where everybody started copy is what lloyds of london and those are the home of dont go follow the high tech stories you know what is ransomware youre my mother would be sort of like ive never heard a room somewhere you know read somewhere basically it comes in attachments infected Software Apps infected external storage devices and compromised websites and one of the facts that locks the files of the systems on that network and thats where the hackers are going to come in and say hey we can unlock all this. Saw you know usually those payments come in the form of what bitcoins give us x. Amount of bit coins and will give you back all of your networks and all of that here youve got these Insurance Companies saying oh just pay the ransom right and not what happened in lake city florida or the city of lake city florida. I dont make demands not this or i just report them but so really in the summer they got hit with a ransom or attack for about 2 weeks they could. Access a lot of their files are their systems than the mayor and the city Council Voted without any debate without anything to do what the Insurance Company said which was which was also was a subsidiary an underwriter of lloyds of london. So they voted no debate which was just pay them the 42. 00 bit coins that the person was asking for what they didnt consider what they didnt mention a lot of their statements was that their id department was already looking at a way to recover those without paying. But they were like metal take too much so instead they paid 42. 00 big ones which of the time was the equivalent of like 460000. 10 thousands of 1000. 00 of that and they had to be paid by the city for the deductible of the insurance policy and one person lost their job. That is ridiculous to me and thats thats what happened so mike lee. Who is the lake city spokesman told the press our Insurance Company made the decision for us at the end of the day it really boils down to the business decision on the insurance side of things than looking at how much its going to cost to fix it ourselves and how much its going to cost to pay the ransom. Im shocked im shocked to find out that this whole hey pay ransom or is somehow made ransoms get bigger and more and i think theyre going to kidnap more people if you bring them right you always know not to do that i mean look quickly according to a point from london based on the loss ratio for cyber policies in the us was 35 percent in 2018 members for every every dollar in premiums companies are paying out 35 percent of the loss ratio for Property Casualty insurance is 62 percent of every dollar premiums are paying out 62 percent so sometimes their concerns is twice at least 2 times more profitable than any other kind of insurance and they keep paying memorandums it keeps going up never keep buying the insurer makes you wonder if theres a connection between that and i wonder if they are going to break watchers dont begin to let us know. Think of the topics weve covered all our social media be sure to check out watching the podcast all variable on spotify apple music and everywhere listen the podcast coming up we dig into the money and connections jeffrey upstream cultivated in the worlds of science and technology withdrawals from swan and all of this this way to watch the. New chick or sounding. A model but i think. One mental. Body. Should have an extra. Trips and i dont want that or i cant thats not me as i knew she needed to move to get out of the room because she killed any kind of she came down the night he made a move to follow the man that young enough i dont know before had on the. Show seemed wrong why dont we all just dont call. Me that hes yet to shape out these days he comes to educate and in games from an equal betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart when shes to look for common ground. We are in a depression in america populations all over america theres poverty more than half the population lives at or below the poverty line so there are already is a bit of a ghost a pressure going on what should develop into a full blown depression because im neither policies work from the central bank so maybe the problem is the subtle. Complicated web of connections deceptions and money that Jeffrey Epstein cultivated as life to help insulators crimes of child sex trafficking and pedophilia is coming more and finally coming more and more into view our quaters well political and hollywood connections have made headlines its his kind of relationship some Financial Connections to many high profile members of the scientific and tech communities that are now finally being looked into these connections have included the likes of world famous mathematical biologists out of Harvard Martin no axillary physicist Lawrence Krauss and a host of other individuals and institutions in fact many of these individuals and institutions continued accepting abstains financial friendship long after his conviction of soliciting a minor for prostitution in 202011 warrants krauss actually told the daily beast quote i dont feel tarnished in any way by my relationship with jeffrey i feel raised by it im sure that 250000 he received from the stands foundation that we know of and education help that uplifting feeling joining us now to dig deeper into mr epsteins connections to the world of science tech and academic is the founder of truth and media. Thanks for joining us ben. That me and then tab at the mention of physicist Lawrence Krauss mathematical biologist martin oh well theres so many other names and institutions now being tied to epstein and what are some of the other ones that were talking about now because there are huge institutions and big names in that world. There are huge institutions were talking about well you mentioned the universities so in mighty harvard both receive them mount sinai their school of medicine in new york they received funding as well as the institute in santa fe its called the center for a institute in new mexico received a lot of money over the years from him there by the way the only organization thats talking about actually giving the money away everybody else to say no that theyre going to keep it the more Research Alliance which you mentioned Lawrence Krauss was a part of so were seeing that there were a lot of these different organizations that received money from him science organizations but lets be real here theres a reality to what was taking place is that Jeffrey Epstein was making a move to attempt to reform his image between 2008 and 2009 and 20172 1018. 00 and thats when this money was being given away in fact according to some filings he was giving away as much as 20000000. 00 a year to different Science Research firms he wanted to set himself up as a science philanthropist and so he was seen that way by a lot of people within that world and because of that it gave him some credibility is specially with media to treat him differently while oh. You know after you learn that jeffrey apps a gave 800000. 00 to Mit Media Lab alone and professor sap the lloyd mit president wrapped in a long email to the mit community stated to geoffrey abstains victims on behalf of them i. T. Administration i offer a profound and humble apology and response we will commit an amount of equal to the funds mit received from any abstain foundation to an appropriate charity that benefits his victims or other victims of sexual abuse has this kind of response been the exception or the norm as sort of more and more names are coming out and theyre like oh no now were tired to have seen the money what are we going to have to do. Yes so far its been the exception most of these organizations havent said much about it but all as i mentioned the Santa Fe Institute where he obviously had a home in new mexico has said that theyre looking at possibly giving away that donation that he made to some other charity but they havent said where it would go and so i think its you know so far everyones kind of waiting to see how much flack they actually get from this i got to tell you guys you may be surprised by this i dont even mind that he gave money to these organizations i know some people feel like its dirty its blood money but the money that he had didnt have to do with the crimes that he was perpetrating against these young girls and in some cases children so i dont care that he gave money away in the organizations that received i have a bigger problem as a media guy with the fact there were 3 different major publications huff po Forbes Magazine and one other that essentially wrote puff pieces about his philanthropy they wrote puff pieces about what he was giving money away to and in some cases essentially there were ghost writers who would write these pieces about how Jeffrey Epstein was so generous and he was fighting against trumps war against science and trumps war against. Everything science meaning the environment thank you and i admire him and essentially these these articles were fake articles that were written by some p. R. Firm they were submitted they were run in these different magazines the new yorker wrote a glowing piece about him and how much money he had given away and this was taking place over the course of several years and thats what i have a bigger problem with not that he was giving money away but that giving money to these institutions or organizations counted almost like if theres a scale yes im doing these horrific things but look im giving money to these organizations so well kind of balances out and the fact that media women along with it that there is a process in media to go along with that and to somehow. I absolve him of his sins because hes giving money to organizations they like it is crazy to me. Yeah i would say that thats the interesting thing about this because you know as a woman i know so many women in science engineering tack you know medicine all of these things and what ive heard for decades is that there is a very male centric very massage and mystic culture within that world that whoever has the money and whoever brings the money makes the rules about how the party is go and the conventions go and see him as i wonder how much of that is well theres a reason why they didnt have a whole lot a young bright young gals that at some of these Mit Media Lab or other conferences if someone like jeffrey obscene or people within his ilk were there it probably wouldnt be great for anybody you know its interesting because you know you mention that idea of like you know epstein gave money to an institution they dont share any real guilt with those crimes but there is that element of cover up and in my mind is like that is an argument that i feel like could hold water that look if you guys are cover if youre using you as p. R. Basically i will give this institution a bunch of money just to make my image look better in my mind and i disagree i mean there were disagreements but in my mind that does make the institution somewhat vulnerable to this does it not because they are just scooping up money from a from a truly bad guy anybody with you know so heres heres what i would say is that everybody who gives money to organizations is a bad person in some way because i dont believe that people as a whole are good people necessarily they are we all do wrong things so i dont think that charities and institutions that have to should have to sit back and say well lets pull out a moral calculator and decide who is moral enough to give us money but at the same time its not so so hear me clearly on this what im saying is that i dont like the fact that by giving money to these these institutions that. Maybe as a whole whitewash is somebody in that way and says oh well but look at the good theyre doing because they gave money to this thing and the and the fact that media falls into that as well if thats the right organizations jeffrey of the met with a new york city p. R. Firm and he sat down with them and said i dont want my obituary the 1st lines in it to be billionaire pervert he said this and this Organization Began working with him to reform his image by the way the the of which where he is not billionaire pervert he got that right its going there are pedophiles. But thats that was all right was to was to reform his image and the way that they went about doing it was almost sick easily predictable to be able to say oh give money to the right organizations and the right people in society and then everyone will agree that youre actually a good man doing a good thing doesnt matter if you give money to them it doesnt change the core of who you are thats kind of the point that i was president and its a very good point because thats the thing he gives this money but he also gave money to institutions and in areas that how much did he influence our thought process on certain things as a way to get out is transhumanism the bedrooms humanism to gen x. For rich people. Nothing is i wonder how much money got put into certain things so what i wonder about is should abstain the scandal drive universities and institutions i think they said to reform the donation process so that you know you can still keep the integrity of the work theyre doing because this is put a stain on the an Mit Media Lab this is putting a stain on every single place that does a lot of really good work do you think a better system in place to keep the people with the money and the people doing research and work separate. So what i would prefer to see is a shift in society as a whole where we do not regard people as being better because they give away a small amount of their excess in order to craft an image about themselves if you believe that the environment should be to. Care of and you have money and you give it to that then give it and that should it there should be no bearing in society on your goodness or badness based on that if this is a conviction of your heart and you choose to give away to charity and i give a lot of money away to charity and i dont have a lot of money but i give away to charity because i believe its the right thing to do but i dont broadcast it in a way that says lets make a p. R. Move in order for people to know the good work that i do i think as a society we should say if you give a way out of conviction because you believe in something thats great that has no bearing on whether or not you are a good or bad person in our society you know in a finish up with this too as i said we do have to admit we dont think theres this investigation is going to go deeper into that not only the institutions but also the individuals because a lot of those individuals too were making trips to the island to hold you know charity functions and things of that nature and then you know that raises a whole other nest of questions about barrack the involvement of jeffreys Extracurricular Activities that should also be looked into as well you know absolutely thank you so much for coming on always a pleasure having you. Guys things. You know what you can get plant based cheese fabric and even meat now science has created a plant based fire retard thats right and also a press conference on august 26th the American Chemical Society revealed a new fire retardant that does not include cancer causing in soil posen and poisoning ammonium phosphate armani himself they amazing developed a Central Michigan university its made from chemicals come out of the from nuts tealeaves and buckle a direct compounds that when coated as you can see on of a poxy resin kept the resin from burning at least as well as dangerous ammonium base chemicals even when the resin finally did fire it protected it longer and the flames were much weaker with the plant based alternative in addition this could be used to treat clothing and fabric making them fire resistant and safe for the people wearing it. To science for getting hot and bothered for. Very good very good hot and bothered for clambers but you know the minute that it was cold see theres always things to do with it but you know i love this idea plus its biodegradable yes and i come from a family with all lot of volunteer firemen and a lot of volunteer in the country we dont have fancy city 100 s. So you know we actually have to do volunteer and a lot of them are have been over the years exposed to these things very bad chemicals and i would hope that we could do a better job of that most awfully well they are and they are all right that is our show for today remember everyone in this world we are told that we are loved develops so i tell you all i love you i am on top of a lot of people watching those hearts open up a great deal but what if.
