More than 400 people have been charged with taking part in health care fraud and opioid scams that totaled $1.3 billion in false billing, Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced Thursday.

Sessions called the collective action the "largest health care fraud takedown operation in American history" and said it indicates that some doctors, nurses and pharmacists "have chosen to violate their oaths and put greed ahead of their patients."

Hey, Sessions!

On Urgent issues needing vigorous attention yesterday - this would be about 777th down the list.

this ‘throw ‘em a fish’ to make it look like you are FINALLY doing SOMETHING isn’t fooling us.

DO THE DAM JOB YOU WERE HIRED -6 MONTHS AG - TO DO!

Opioid-addicted schmuck in Eephus, Kentucky who stooped to filing false insurance claims, going to jail.

Hillary Rodham Clinton, walking around free.

Where are our priorities?

And how do you know he is not doing that, as well? Do you think he is going to announce it beforehand?

Are you thinking of the EpiPen competitor? Senator Manchin’s (D-WV) daughter is the CEO of that company, and there’s a push to mandate that schools and everyone else buy their product. Of course, they jack up their prices at the same time.

Push nothing! Back in Zer0 admin it was made mandatory in order for school districts to get Federal grants.

This is why I wasn’t going to rush to judgment on Jeff Sessions, like many on FR were; actually gathering evidence to pursue a prosecution takes time, and is done without a lot of noise.

That's what I thought. Why broadcast it before time?

This is unbelievable...

In one example, workers at a rehab center in Florida enticed and lured addicts with gift cards, trips to strip clubs and narcotics. This allowed the company to collect $58 million in false treatments and tests.

Nail the corrupt politicians and bureaucrats first and there won't be any more of these small fish. It's the politicians and bureaucrats that make these schemes possible.

“Are you thinking of the EpiPen competitor?”

I believe there are a few Competitors. I own a few shares in a company called Antares Pharmaceuticals which has a few different type self administered FDA approved syringes. They are trying to get to market with Epi soon. Prescribed self administered Testosterone is were they are trying to make the biggest splash. They have a lot of catalyst coming in the next 6-12 months. $3 and change stock NOW.

But there’s still lots to do: Hillary, Obama, Clinton Foundation, et al. Time to get busy.

Today is a day for celebration and prayer that a scourge on the nation has been brought down.

Thanks to the Hon. Attorney General Jeff Sessions. Without him, this day would not have happened.

Here’s to this great American and godspeed in his very large pile of endeavors.

Remember, Jeff Sessions is operating underhand and has a group at DoJ in place who don’t want the criminals too far up the ladder caught.

He’s doing it with a whole lot of hard work.

For the disgruntled crybabies, please make a note of it.
