I hope Pfizer goes with the Scorpion and the Frog defense.

el gato malo's avatar

they'll drown in legal costs...

Grandma Bear's avatar

Me too! With a millstone around their necks.

I'd like to see Fauci, Gates and Bourla in prison, dropping their soaps in the shower.

Repeatedly!

Tom Joyce's avatar

Think they annually spend about $1 Bil on legal expenses…

The defense suggested here at least seems to be a variation on it. "We cannot be held responsible b/c you (the govt) knew we are degenerate liars and saddled up anyway."

DashRiprock's avatar

Pretty much the Animal House defense: “You f*cked up, you trusted us.”

INGRID C DURDEN's avatar

I had to chuckle when I read that. We can not be kept accountable because the government knew about the fraud... might be better to trust Al Capone than the government then ?

Dr. Hubris's avatar

I was born and raised in the Eastern bloc and thought our rulers were bad; turns out that they don't hold a candle to these criminals!

By contrast, I miss those times!

Hola Ingrid from La Frontera! 💓🙏🏼

Katherine Watt's Substack (bailiwicknews) is one of the most intriguing out there. She has done more work than anyone I know on actually doing fact and resource filled legal analysis. You will not be disappointed in subscribing.

INGRID C DURDEN's avatar

yes that is a really good one. Subscribed last week.

INGRID C DURDEN's avatar

I am somewhat wary of opening this because this gramma age person is probably listed as a domestic terrorist !

after opening, found out that not the old granny, but grampa in the wh and a lot of others in that building are the domestic terrorists. Yeah Bandit !

Me three.

Picturing T-shirt design. Successive lines read:

National Security Threat

Senior

Healthy

No meds

No shots

No papers

Shares wrong opinion online

Should be rounded up, roughed up, tattooed, shoved into a camp, starved and put to hard labor

? (last line = “?”)

Too wordy?

Bandit's avatar

It would take the normal IQ level people too long to read it. 😉😏

Heterodox Introvert's avatar

Yeah, too wordy for a goldfish.

The other idea, a riff on establishment’s oxymoronic “health emergency” :

Since when is health an emergency?

...Would probably go over the goldfish’s heads...

INGRID C DURDEN's avatar

might be for a blanket ! Tshirt will be too wordy indeed!

rjt's avatar

Last line possibly "Then sent to the showers"- but still possibly too subtle for the Covidioti (a lovely Italian word I learned last week, it really rolls off the tongue.)

Heterodox Introvert's avatar

Covidioti! I think the word should sweep across the world and be adopted! A modern Italian contribution to international language. Promoting! At every intersection possible! Thanks! ...Covidioti...

Bandit's avatar

You an me both, Ingrid. 😕

gi whiz's avatar

Double wow! Thank you very much for the link to this excellent, historic and very detailed assessment of how they "legalized and funded the overthrow of the U.S. Constitution, the U.S. government and the American people, through a massive domestic bioterrorism program relabeled as a public health program."

Bandit's avatar

Subscribe, it's free to all, and look into some of her in depth research on these and other laws. She's a phenomenal investigator.

Bandit's avatar

You're more than welcome! Subscribe, it's free to all.

Then pass it on. 👍

CuiBono?'s avatar

Incredible resource thank you Bandit!

Bandit's avatar

You're more than welcome! Her substack is free to all and she has been researching some of those laws in depth lately. It is a wealth of information.

Corruption only happens in movies and Mexico

Heterodox Introvert's avatar

*Dope slap!

What was I thinking? It could never happen here.

Such a comfort @Harry, thank you for jolting me out of this imaginary world I thought was REAL!

INGRID C DURDEN's avatar

And all the failed medicine they kept promoting knowing very well they 1. did not help and 2. probably did a lot of harm. As to Moderna, they never made anything that worked. Why would they make something that works now?

INGRID C DURDEN's avatar

haha you got me there. I mean worked in the sense of 'helped', 'healed', 'prevented'. But yes, it certainly 'worked' i n other ways !

Ed's avatar

they missed that cdc/fda were accomplices that allowed wretched design of experiment, no safety data and erroneous end points...

Zero Social Credits's avatar

This is a lawyer's dream. There will/should be tons of class-action lawsuits around the world - Big Pharma, CDC, FDA, NIH, Fauci, Doctors, Nurses, Hospitals, Employers mandating the illegal injection of an unapproved substance, etc., etc., etc.

Or maybe there will just be one Nuremburg 2.0. I hope "I was just following orders" is not a valid defense.

Surely, there's no other ending for this shameful period in history.

JohnS's avatar

Zero, I agree and for once I wish there were MORE lawyers!

rjt's avatar

"... just following orders" has already been used.

I was thinking maybe "I was too stupid (or senile) to see this."

J T's avatar

The issue isn't if they learned their lesson or not, it's what lesson did they learn.

Unfortunately, the lesson they learned was to buy off more important people to keep from getting caught.

AndyinBC's avatar

"the lesson they learned was to buy off more important people to keep from getting caught." That might better be expressed as - The lesson they learned is that they will never be held accountable. They have no concern whatsoever re "getting caught".

Robert W's avatar

No company executives ever face prosecution or jail time in big pharma fraud cases. As Wall Street corporate felons are do not. Fines mean nothing to these criminals; prison time would.

Janet's avatar

Iceland put their bank fraudsters in prison. There were demonstrations by the people all the time. We are lawless now. Except for the 99%. We pay. Privatize the profit—socialize the loss.

this little authoritarian's avatar

It's a good thing Pfizer recognized the error of it's ways back then and has since steered towards the path of righteousness.

Oh, and pigs can fly.

Janet's avatar

With a banner out their porcine arses reading “safe and effective”

John Henry Holliday, DDS's avatar

Experts are now in agreement on the need for speedy trials and very harsh, medieval punishments meted out to pharma executives.

Paging Marcellus Wallace...

rjt's avatar

I'm sorry but the only trial better than (Warp)speedy is no trial, because we already know that the shots are "Safe and Effective."

We peons get the medieval punishments

Ray's avatar

they also cheat at monopoly

SCA's avatar

I mean, I expect contempt from them, generally. But is it too much to ask that they just don't spit in our faces? They already do it, into the food, behind our backs...

Rikard's avatar

It's okay. We can put ground glass in their food behind their backs.

SCA's avatar

Decades ago I read a novel where servants were doing that out of revenge, and I never quite got over feeling a little unease, generally speaking, of what might happen because of factory accidents...

Rikard's avatar

In general, it's very poor idea to tee off the people what cooks, cleans and does chores for you.

Even feudal or ancient overlords knew that - the old texts have numerous mentions an cautions about treating your servants and slaves well, without forgetting who is master and servant.

All it takes after all, is one disgruntled person with a blade - someone with nothing to lose. Memento mori, as they said.

SCA's avatar

Yes indeedy. I'm always in awe of the courage of people who piss off their waiter or the fast-food employee. Such stalwart heart I do not have.

PamelaDrew's avatar

Fab find you cats are fab hunters! "The expert reports, unsealed Monday in a federal court in Boston, add to accusations that the pharmaceutical industry has controlled the flow of clinical research data, blurring the lines between science and marketing."

“ Pfizer’s tactics included delaying the publication of studies…”

Sean O'Dalaigh's avatar

They probably felt a bit sad and hard done by back in 2008 and then they promoted these vet character and all was well, like the cattle he produced 'vaccines' for.

Integrity and Karma's avatar

That was truly grotesque....and they kept pushing that bovine concoction

BradK (Tuckered out)'s avatar

The difference being that 14 years ago we at least embraced the notion of concern, whereas today we're not even allowed to broach the subject for fear of retaliation.

We've come a long way, baby.

jim peden's avatar

The lesson that Pfizer (and other Big Pharma) learned from history was to invest heavily in the mass media. That investment has so far paid big dividends.
