#Memory_Lane | #BIG_PHARMA ⚕️ 😷 💉 💊 | The MAN who MADE billions of dollars from #OxyContin is #Pushing a #Drug to #Wean #Addicts #Off #Opioids | #Purdue_Pharma | Richard Sackler..

Following hundreds of #lawsuits over the #years against #Pharmaceutical Giant Purdue Pharma, #Colorado’s attorney general is #suing the OxyContin creator for its “ #Significant role in causing the #Opioid_Epidemic.”

The lawsuit claims Purdue Pharma L.P. and Purdue Pharma Inc. #deluded_doctors and #patients in Colorado about the potential for #addiction with #prescription opioids and continued to push the drugs.

And it comes amid news that the company’s former chairman and president, Richard Sackler, has #Patented a #NEW_DRUG to help wean addicts from opioids. “Purdue’s habit-forming medications coupled with their reckless marketing have robbed children of their parents, families of their sons and daughters, and destroyed the lives of our friends, neighbors, and co-workers,” Colorado Attorney General Cynthia Coffman said Thursday in a statement. “While no amount of money can bring back loved ones, it can compensate for the enormous costs brought about by Purdue’s intentional misconduct.”

How the misleading marketing of one pain pill helped get America addicted. The lawsuit states that Purdue Pharma “downplayed the risk of addiction associated with opioids,” “exaggerated the benefits” and “advised health care professionals that they were violating their Hippocratic Oath and failing their patients unless they treated pain symptoms with opioids,” according to the statement from the Colorado attorney general’s office.

#Elon #Musk is #suing the law firm that tried to help him get out of buying #Twitter after he signed a contract promising to buy Twitter for $44 billion dollars with no additional conditions.
Then he decided he didn't want to do it anymore and hired lawyers willing to take his money to look stupid in court.
The #Chancery #Court of #Delaware is really the entity that forced him to buy Twitter.
Well, that was Elon, but the Court made him go through with it.

16 #Montana #Kids Are #Suing the State Over #ClimateChange. Here's What to Know About the Trial

#TikTok is #SUING #Montana over #STATEWIDE_BAN
The #TikTok_lawsuit, #filed earlier today, alleges the ban #violates the #First_Amendment and #other_laws.

TikTok filed a lawsuit on Monday in the U.S. District Court of #Montana to challenge the state’s ban of the #social_platform, as reported by The Wall Street Journal. The case was brought against the state Attorney General #Austin_Knudsen.

Montana’s #governor signed the #bill into #law last week, just one month after it passed through the state legislature. It was met with immediate pushback — a group of creators quickly sued the state, calling the law unconstitutional. Now TikTok is suing the state directly with similar claims, stating in the lawsuit that Montana’s law violates the First Amendment. “Montana's ban abridges freedom of speech in violation of the First Amendment, violates the U.S. Constitution in multiple other respects, and is preempted by federal law,” the lawsuit reads.

We are challenging Montana’s unconstitutional TikTok ban to protect our business and the hundreds of thousands of TikTok users in Montana. We believe our legal challenge will prevail based on an exceedingly strong set of precedents and facts.

CAVEAT #ORACLE: An ELEPHANT NEVER FORGETS | #MEMORY_LANE | Oracles #CIA Origins?? (No, I'm not joking). |

#TikTok PICKS #ORACLE over #Microsoft?? in #Trump_Forced #Sales_Bid

The owner of #TikTok has chosen #Oracle over #Microsoft as the #American_Tech_Partner that could help keep the popular video-sharing app running in the U.S., according to a source familiar with the deal who was not authorized to speak publicly about it.

Microsoft announced #Sunday that its bid to acquire TikTok's U.S. operations was #rejected, removing the tech giant from the running a #week_before President Donald Trump promises to follow through with a plan to #Ban the #Chinese_Owned #App in the U.S. over Spying Concerns.

The Trump administration has threatened to ban TikTok by Sept. 20 and ordered #ByteDance to #sell its #USA_Business, claiming #national_security_risks due to its #Chinese_ownership. The government worries about user #data being #funneled to Chinese authorities. #

TikTok #denies it is a #national_security_risk and is #suing to #stop the administration from the threatened #ban.

TikTok #declined to comment Sunday. Oracle didn't return a request for comment but has #previously_declined comment.

Microsoft said in a Sunday statement that #TikTok's parent company, #Bytedance, "let us know today they would not be selling TikTok's US operations to Microsoft."
