UPDATE From The Julian Assange Extradition Trial
Stella Assange, The Wife Of WikiLeaks Founder Julian Assange “The United States has taken a political, politically motivated prosecution against a journalist because he exposed them committing crimes.”
“There’s only a handful of us inside the room that actually can follow the proceedings, so I wanted to tell you about what was going on in there. We opened, and, uh, we talked about Julian's political opinions and his political motivations, and they are clear, and they're unchallenged, which is to expose state criminality. And what happens when you expose state criminality?
The United States has taken a political, politically motivated prosecution against a journalist because he exposed them committing crimes. And so what's going on inside this courtroom is to determine how the extent of the cover up.
How is this court going to deal with this case? We heard that the case was only brought after the United States said, uh, that it would do anything to prevent the International Criminal Court from examining an investigation into US activities in Afghanistan and, of course, WikiLeaks evidence, um, in the publication that Julian's indicted over are part of that case.
WikiLeaks has been used as evidence in, uh, European Court of Human Rights and other foreign courts to expose state criminality. And the United States is abusing its legal system in order to hound and prosecute and intimidate all of you.
What's at stake is the ability to publish the truth and expose crimes when they're committed by States.
The outcome of this hearing today will make it clear the extent of the cover up. The only fair I I shouldn't even talk about fairness at this stage because the country that's trying to extradite him plotted to murder him. What are we even entertaining in these courts? How can any, um, How can you how can you even entertain this hearing, knowing what we know. It's all on the public record, and yet it continues.
It's only a handful of us in that room, but you know what the stakes are. You understand what this is about. It's about you. It's about us. It's about the public's right to know.
It's about the right to be able to speak freely without being put in prison and hounded and terrorized by the state. Thank you.”

Big Pharma Caught Monopolizing The Industry & Running Small Pharmacies Out Of Business
Rep Ron Stephens, Chairman Economic Development & Tourism “Shock & Awe” Big Pharmacy Companies Are Being Paid “Almost $90 for a prescription where these local pharmacies are being paid $1.90”
“30% of all independent pharmacists are gonna close this year. — These independent pharmacies are the backbone of health care in many communities. If you don't have a physician in your community, they're one of the backbones, and we need to support them.”
“Today is something that'll get your attention in shock and awe, as we say with, uh, whenever we start this stuff. You'll look at a little printout from ACPI. We've been thought for years that the, um, our our own insurance program, the state health benefit, basically paid pharmacies the same. Uh, little did we know that they were running, uh, some of our independent pharmacies out of business. Bell's pharmacy had its last day, not because they were not competitive on fry this past Friday, but because they had a lot of teachers in their district.
Teachers, state patrol, all these other state employees. Ladies and gentlemen, I think if you'll look at the sheet, you'll see that some of the change are getting paid as much as almost $90 for a prescription where these local pharmacies are being paid a dollar 90¢. Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know how in the world of Community Health had no idea this was going on. And here's the question we all ought to be asking, not so much about what we're paying our independent community pharmacies that have been there for sometimes for generations. More importantly, and especially to those folks that are self insured, what are they billing you and your employees other than what they're telling you that they're paying the pharmacies?”

Express Scripts Optum RX & CVS Caremark Are Pharmacy Benefit Managers or PBMs that Own Their Own Mail Order &/or Retail Pharmacies. They Have Been Caught Reimbursing Their Own & Corporate Pharmacies Many Times More Than Small Locally Owned Pharmacies As They Often Steer/Force Many To Their Own Pharmacies. It is Estimated That The US Will Lose 30% of Locally Owned Pharmacies Due to This
