The DOJ said that between March 2020 and September 2022, Pfizer subsidiary Biohaven Pharmaceuticals violated the federal False Claims Act by providing speaker honoraria and meals at high-end restaurants to doctors, to induce them to prescribe Nurtec ODT, a migraine drug, more often.

Some speaker programs were attended multiple times by the same doctors, resulting in no educational benefit, or attended by doctors’ spouses, family members, and colleagues who had no educational need to be there, the department added.

The False Claims Act anti‑kickback statute referenced by the DOJ bars entities from paying or offering anything of value to trigger the referral of services to items that are covered under federal health care programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, or others. It’s designed to make sure that the judgments made by health care providers will not be “compromised by improper financial incentives,” the statement said.

The False Claims Act allows whistleblowers to sue on behalf of the government and share in recoveries.

“Patients deserve to know that their doctor is prescribing medications based on their doctor’s medical judgment, and not as a result of financial incentives from pharmaceutical companies,” said U.S. Attorney Trini E. Ross with the Western District of New York in a statement. “This settlement reflects our commitment to hold those who violate the laws accountable, regardless of their status or prestige.”

President Donald Trump’s new homeland security chief, Kristi Noem, has canceled the Democrats’ last-minute amnesty extension to 600,000 economic migrants from Venezuela, according to the New York Times.

The faster return of the Venezuelans to their home country will supercharge pressure for domestic political and economic reform, and it will cut off the migrants’ remittances that help the country’s Cuban-backed dictator, Nicolás Maduro.

The amnesty shift also suggests that Trump plans a pro-freedom foreign policy that can reinvigorate poor countries and boost beneficial U.S. exports to those countries.

U.S. — In an attempt to more effectively cater to underserved segments of the population, ridesharing company Lyft introduced a new "AirLyft" app that would be available for plus-sized customers.

The feature was born out of a need to protect the company from further litigation after a morbidly obese person sued Lyft due to not being able to fit into the vehicle sent to pick her up. AirLyft was created to eliminate such cases by flying huge passengers to their destinations via cargo helicopters.

"This is welcome news to all fatties, chubbos, and roundies everywhere," said Lyft marketing spokesperson Janine Granger. "We want to do whatever we need to do to provide reliable service to customers of all sizes — even total lardbutts. So now, when Tubby Bigbottom over there needs to get to the airport, he can just open up the AirLyft app and request a helicopter to come haul him away."

The company reportedly spared no expense in launching the new option. "We had to sign contracts with some military bases to get the air support we need," Granger said. "Plus, we had to shell out a lot of money for industrial-grade cabling to hold these fatties. But like I said before, we're willing to do what it takes to accommodate even the grossest customers. So here's your chance, Huge McLargePants! Catch a ride with AirLyft and feel the wind in your hair on your way to Baskin-Robbins!"
